Our African Grey breeding philosophy emphasizes health, intelligence, temperament, and genetic diversity. We meticulously select breeding pairs according to comprehensive avian health testing, behavioral evaluations, vocal aptitude, and cognitive ability. We prioritize producing robust, well-socialized African Greys with the distinctive intelligence, speaking ability, and emotional depth characteristic of these remarkable parrots.

Certainly! We encourage all prospective families to examine photographs, videos, and detailed profiles of both parents. This facilitates understanding of potential temperament, vocal ability, size, and characteristics your African Grey parrot may develop. We maintain transparency within our breeding program and gladly share information regarding lineage, personality attributes, speaking vocabulary, and pertinent health history of parental birds.

All breeding African Greys undergo extensive avian health screening including psittacosis testing, PBFD (Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease) screening, polyoma virus testing, comprehensive blood panels, and thorough physical examinations by certified avian veterinarians. We conduct genetic testing and maintain meticulous health documentation for all breeding birds. Health certificates and test outcomes are accessible for review by interested families.

Each African Grey chick receives age-appropriate health care including psittacosis testing, regular wellness checks, and appropriate parasite prevention. They undergo thorough avian veterinary examinations, DNA sexing, and microchip implantation. Prior to transitioning to their new home, parrots receive complete wellness evaluations. All health documentation, DNA sexing certificates, and test results are provided to adopting families.

Yes! We offer a comprehensive 30-day health guarantee and lifetime assurance against hereditary conditions. Additionally, we provide a 72-hour health assurance from collection time, during which you may have your parrot examined by your personal avian veterinarian. Should any genetic or congenital health concerns emerge within the guarantee period, we will collaborate on appropriate resolutions, which may involve replacement or refund according to specific circumstances.

African Greys can become exceptional family companions when properly socialized and cared for. They typically demonstrate strong bonding with family members, though supervision remains advisable due to their sensitive nature and powerful beaks. Early socialization and careful introduction to household pets is fundamental. African Greys require a stable, predictable environment and may become stressed by chaotic households or improper handling.

African Greys require 4-6 hours of daily interaction, mental stimulation, and supervised out-of-cage time. This should incorporate training sessions, foraging activities, puzzle toys, and social interaction. Without adequate mental engagement, African Greys may develop behavioral challenges like feather plucking or screaming. They excel with activities like target training, speech acquisition, foraging games, and interactive play that engage their exceptional intelligence.

Positive reinforcement training methods yield optimal results with African Greys. They respond favorably to patient, consistent training using treats, praise, and clicker techniques. Early foundation training and ongoing socialization are imperative, exposing chicks to diverse experiences, sounds, and situations in controlled, positive contexts. These intelligent parrots require owners who provide mental stimulation, clear communication, and respectful interaction throughout their lifespan.

Each African Grey parrot transitions home with: complete health documentation, DNA sexing certificate, psittacosis test results, microchip registration, health certificate from our avian veterinarian, 30-day health guarantee, initial supply of premium parrot nourishment, comprehensive care manual, and recommended enrichment items. We additionally provide perpetual breeder support and remain accessible for consultation throughout your companion's lifetime.

Final settlement occurs when the parrot prepares for home transition at approximately 12-16 weeks of age.

African Grey parrots typically transition to their new homes between 12-16 weeks of age. This allows sufficient time for proper weaning, fledging, early socialization, and foundational training. We never release unweaned babies and ensure each parrot is fully independent, eating solid foods confidently, and demonstrating appropriate social behaviors before placement. This careful timing supports optimal psychological and physical development.
