Zuri is looking for his forever home
Parrots require a lot of human contact and stimulation. If you're not able to provide this then a Grey is not for you.
Depression and stress can cause health issues, such as self-mutilation and plucking. A diet consisting only of seeds is also dangerous because it is deficient in many vital nutrients.
Cage
Zuri comes with his own cage and a care package with premium quality feeds. He also comes with a guide to care so you know what to expect from him when you return him to his home.
These birds are intelligent and require a lot attention. They need regular prepared meals, lots of clean-up and time out of their cages to stay happy. If you don't spend enough time with your parrots, they may be stressed. They might bite or exhibit self-harming behaviors such as plucking their feathers and tearing off their own feet. Parrots are the 3rd most relocated pets for this reason. This is a big undertaking and it's best to ensure that you can keep your parrot for its whole lifespan before you buy one.
African Greys can bond with one family member and enjoy spending lots of time with them. They don't want to be left on their own and often scream in high pitched tones if they aren't being taken care of for. This is a sign the bird is in need of help. It can be distressing to hear. It is possible to overcome this by having other family members that your bird will recognise and trust to care for the bird in your absence.
When choosing a cage ensure that it is large enough for your parrot to spread its wings fully without touching the sides. Also, make sure the bars are large enough so that your pet is not able to escape and get stuck. It is important to make sure that all feeder and door doors are secured, so your pet is unable to open them.
A cage that has an open tray is easier to clean than one with a solid floor. You will need to provide your pet with plenty of toys as they are very smart and active species.
Some cages have built-in perches that you can put your pet, however you should think about adding more of these. Having a variety of perches can help to maintain healthy claws and will reduce the need to clip. You can also add climbing ropes and bells to the cage to give your pet additional exercise.

African greys are social birds that enjoy human companionship. They form a bond with a person and will remain loyal to them throughout their lives. They aren't for everyone, and can be problematic if they don't receive the proper care they require. It is for this reason that they are among the most sought-after pets, despite being the third most popular parrot. If you choose to purchase an African grey parrot, you will have to be prepared to dedicate a significant amount of time to your pet.
If you are not able to stay for long periods with your African gray hair, it's not the right choice for you. It won't be content in a solitary environment and will require human interaction on a regular basis. This is a species that will thrive in social interaction and love to learn, therefore it will be bored quickly when left alone for long periods of time. It is important to provide your pet with plenty of stimulation through games, puzzles and a range of activities to keep it busy and entertained.
It is crucial to feed your pet a varied diet, including vegetables, fruits, and pellets of high quality. Avoid foods that are high in sugar as they can cause diarrhea in your pet. Avoid feeding your African grey icebergs greens as well as other foods high in nitrogen, as they can cause kidney damage.
African greys are omnivorous and will eat a variety of foods, including cooked eggs as well as fish, meat and cheese. They also consume nuts, seeds and whole grains. However, too much cheese can be detrimental to their health, as it can cause diarrhea and crop impacts. It is best to limit their cheese intake to a smaller amount the same size as a grape.
Toys
There are many toys designed specifically for parrots. These include chewing and foraging toys that make the feeding experience more engaging. They are also extremely stimulating to the brain. These toys are made of materials that are safe for birds and can stand up to a powerful beak. They allow your birds to satisfy their natural chewing needs.
A Pod Party, for instance is a foraging toy that African Greys love. The toy is packed with mahogany Pods that have a crunchy-but-soft texture that most parrots adore. It's strung on a small, thin hemp rope that makes it tough but not too noisy for a parrot, which can be sensitive to loud sounds.
African Greys can consume seeds, nuts and fruits. However, they must be fed pellets to ensure they get all the vitamins and minerals they need. Pretty Bird, which is made specifically for birds and Harrisons organic Pellets are two brands I recommend.
Training
You might want to think about the possibility of rescuing a pet for your family. They can assist you in learning about your new parrot's health, personality, and history. They can also offer courses on avian care. These courses can help train your parrot to talk, mimic, and interact with other members of the household.
Parrots are very intelligent creatures and can learn a wide range of words and phrases. It is essential to begin teaching them as young as possible. This can be done with respect and positive reinforcement. A well-trained parrot is happy and lovable, and it will bond with its family members. It will also learn how to be a loving companion for other animals. Parrots are social animals and must be exposed to all within the home and guests on a regular basis. If you fail to interact with a parrot the animal may become angry and show signs of frustration, such as screaming or biting.
Once you've made a connection with your pet you can begin to train it. Begin with the basics, like the ability to step up. This involves holding your hand in the direction of the parrot and requesting it to step up onto it. Once it does, you can give it an incentive. Over time, you will be able to advance to more advanced training.
The diet of a parrot is essential to its overall health. It is vital to provide your pet an wholesome diet that includes vegetables, fruit and pellets. A bird fed only seeds may develop a number of serious health problems, including obesity, kidney disease and heart disease. It can also be suffering from nutritional deficiencies. A healthy diet will ensure that your pet is healthy and happy.
While a parrot can be a wonderful addition to a family, it is important that you are fully committed to giving them the attention they require. If you're a busy person and can't commit to spending 3 to 5 hours a day with your parrot you may want to consider purchasing or adopting one from a rescue group. It is unfair to the bird if it's constantly being relocated due to changes in your life.
