Personality & Behavior
African Grey Parrot for sale – $500 African Greys are for experienced bird owners due to their complexity, sensitivity and high maintenance. Known for their intelligence and charm they can be challenging behaviorally as they love routine and even small changes can stress them out. They may also feather pluck and chew if they get distressed or bored. Many owners find the Timneh African Grey (TAG) is more adaptable and good for busy households and the Congo African Grey (CAG) prefers a quieter environment.
They are social birds that love interaction but not cuddly. They may allow some head scratches or light petting but not extended physical contact. Each bird is different and some may be okay with a little snuggling. African Greys often bond with one person even if they’ve been socialized with multiple people from a young age.
