because i have hand reared birds since i was 21 and am now 33 i know what i`m doing,i bought the grey from a couple who are local and asked to rear myself which as i was close enough if there were any problems they agreed,i understand if someone bought a bird to hand rear and did not know what they were doing then that would not be right but as i am very experienced then she will be fine.thye have another one which is booked but they are not allowing to go untill fully weaned.

So so cute!
I remember my gran raising african greys and ringneck parakeets. We had macaws, ringnecks (blue,pink, yellow and white ones i think), cockatoos, and all sorts. Sadly they got a diesease that wiped them all out (cant remember the name maybe you'll know it, ), my gran was so upset she has'nt kept a bird since.
Lovely animals.
