WHERE DO THE WILD AFRICAN GREYS LIVE? By Jean Pattison View the full size map at the bottom of this article. Did you know that the ancestors of your Congo Grey may really be from Cameroon, and the ancestors of your Cameroon Grey may really be from the Congo? We even have Zaire Greys that were imported out of Togo.....but all in all, after all is said and done, there are really only two types of Greys: the nominate subspecies, the Psittacus erithacus erithacus and the Psittacus erithacus timneh. This article is about the origin and location of the many "variations" of the nominate Grey, more commonly called the Congo Grey. AN EDUCATION First, let’s discuss the issue of "typing," because going back to basic biology, one needs to understand the trickle down effect. Life starts at the top and can be divided into two "types:" animals and plants. Each of these are split into "types." In the animal world we find mammals, insects, birds, fish, etc.. Each of these are further split into "types." Bird "types" are split into flightless birds, water birds, perching birds, birds of prey and parrots, to name a few. Parrots are further split into "types" known as Genus. A Genus is a group exhibiting very similar characteristics. The Genus is broken down further into "types" known as species. A species is a more finely tuned group whose members share the same general characteristics. AND if that isn’t enough, these species are broken into even more "types" known as subspecies.

African Grey Parrots African greys live in feeding flocks and also nest in trees, they are generally shy birds. They eat different fruits, seeds and berries. They can live up to 50-70 years of age kept in a good and healthy home. Body length..31 to 37 centimeters Wing length.. 22 to 25 centimeters Tail length.. 8 to 9.5 centimeters Normal weigh.. is 325 to 550 grams Male has usually greater body and bigger beak. Before buying a grey you should ask yourself. Do I have enough time to spend with them or are they gone be left alone for many hours during the day cause having a grey means a life long commitment. They are extremely social birds. A grey who is left on his own and with little human contact will waste away in sadness and might end up as a feather plucker. If you have enough time patience and love for this extremely lovely parrots.. then a grey is perfect. That should not alone be the reason for buying them. They are very intelligent and have a mind like a 5 year old child. They can be thought doing various of commands.

African Grey parrots. pictures by Julie Lewis For more info about African Greys as well as a host of stories, games and articles about other species visit: PPACW-UK African Greys (Psittacus erithacus) by Julie Lewis Taxonomy/Origins: Subspecies: Timneh Grey Parrot Psittacus e.timneh Also Psittacus e. princeps: Plumage Colouration: Juveniles tend toward a darker tail color to that of the adult at least untill 6months old, Juvenile eye color black untill aprox 18 weeks thereafter turning to light grey outer ring, eyes turn a pale yellow at 12 months, to a brighter yellow as the bird get older. General plumage pale grey, but occasionally dark grey; white, bare facial area; head feathers with pale edging; abdomen feathers with dark grey edging; lower back light grey; primaries grey-blackish; tail and adjacent tail-coverts red; bill black; iris pale yellow; feet dark grey. Sexing: Some say they can sex a bird by the shape of a greys head or the overall look of the bird, I find this doubtful, and would recommend a DNA test where two blood feathers are removed from the chest area and sent for analysis, ensuring a positive resul in the sex be it female or male bird. Feeding: The diet depends very much on the bird; if the bird is a wild import our fresh foods maybe alien therefore its harder to adjust the bird into eating a health diet, I would suggest a fortified vitamin supplemented seed in this case as the bird may tend toward being a seed junkie, hand reared birds take more readily to fresh fruit and vegetables, pellets specially produced for specific birds, also egg-rearing food.

MORE INFO ON GREYS CLICK HERE!! The Amazon The Amazons Parrots are what most laymen think of when you say "parrot". They are all native to Central and South America although nowadays they are all born here in the United States. Some of these birds offered for sale are now three generations removed from their wild- caught ancestors. The Amazons are universally heavy bodied with a short tail and are mostly green in color with yellow, blue or red highlights. They are extroverted clowns and wildly amusing. The main disadvantage is their blind loyalty to their favorite human companion. This trait of theirs to love one human and exclude everyone else in the family sometimes causes problems in families where other members also love the bird. This is usually solved by having the unloved members buy their own bird, causing multi-bird families! Although all Amazon parrots have the ability to talk, the most reliable ones are the

SCA E-group When talking abut parrots most people envisage an African Grey ( pisttacus erithacus ), or to give it its proper name the "Grey Parrot". This form of parot as the name suggests comes from many parts of Africa, ranging from the Guinea Islands, Cameroon's, Nigeria to Tanzania and Kenya. They are mainly birds of the lowland forests of Central Africa, often found in Savannah woodland and open country. In Nigeria and the Cameroon's they can be found inhabiting magroves around the coastal area. Flocks, numbering one to two hundred can often be found congregating at a preferred roosting site, usually on the very edges of forestland in the tallest trees. They are strong flyers, with shallow wingbeats and direct flight, they return to the roosting sites every night. Their loud high-pitched calls can be heard piercing the normal calm of the forest edge. They are creatures of the treetops, often finding their preferred foods of sees, nuts, berries and fruti at such a height. Visiting the groundinfrequently, mainly for a daily drink of water, they can be nervous and take flight at the first sign of any noise.

African Greys African Grey Parrots Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Subphylum: Vertebrata Class: Aves Order: Psittaciformes Family: Psittacidae Genus: Psittacus Species: erathicus Subspecies: erathicus (Congo) or: timneh (Timneh) The largest of the African parrots, the African Grey Congo (also referred to as "Jocko") stands approximately 13" tall. It received its name from its coloring which is chiefly a sooty grey with a light grey rump and bright red tail (its smaller sub-species - the African Grey Timneh has a more maroon colored tail feathers). It has a black bill and white mask around yellow eyes. Some Greys (such as Smokey-his neck is now entirely red!) have displayed red feathering throughout their body and are referred to as "King Jockos". The African Grey is native only to Africa and can be found from the Bijagos Archipelago of Guinea-Bissau east through the forest belt of West Africa to the Congo Basin, Uganda, and the Kakamega Forest in Southwest Kenya. It lives in rain forests, riverine forests, mangroves, and oil palm plantations. They communicate through high pitched whistles, screams and growls. They make their nests in cavities in trees and lay their eggs (usually 1 - 4) directly in the wood dust rather than actually building a nest. Like most parrots, once they select a mate, they remain monogamous with that mate for life. They wander from tree to tree depending on which is in fruit, and also raids crops such as oil-nut palms and maize.

AFRICAN GREYS What to Expect from Your African Grey Is Your African Grey a Male or a Female? In most African Greys, it is difficult to distinguish a male from a female based on physical characteristics; therefore, endoscopy or laboratory methods must be used for sex determination in breeding facilities. There may be some size or color variation between genders if the birds are from the same subspecies. What Do Greys Do All Day? Because of their high intelligence, African Greys are easily bored and require training. They are relatively playful and can be amused with some toys. Because they love to chew, any toys must be free of toxic metals, hooks, sharp objects or small, easily consumed components. Providing chew toys or fresh-cut branches from nontoxic, pesticide-free trees is encouraged for African Greys. Check with your veterinarian for recommendations on locally available safe trees.

" " Excerpt from My Human, My Slave site vetrefer articles shop powered by FreeFind Home Free eBooks Tour ... Take a Survey An Introduction to African Greys by Rebecca Margison African Greys, Psittacus erithacus , are parrots that are native to several countries in Africa. The bird commonly called the Congo Grey is the nominate species , Psittacus erithacus erithacus, and the Timneh Grey, Psittacus erithacus timneh is the subspecies. The names refer to the country in which the birds are believed to have come. This is not always accurate, though, since the laws regarding importation caused many sellers of Greys in Africa to lie about the country of origin. Baby Greys are relatively easy to find. You have a few choices as to where to get an African Grey. You can find a breeder, purchase one from a pet store, from a private breeder, or you can adopt one from a rescue facility. If you have the time, patience, and resources to rehabilitate a bird, I would strongly urge you to adopt a bird from a rescue organization. The problem of unwanted parrots is very real.
