Re: boarding an African Grey
Is there maybe someone on here close by who also has birds that you could maybe ask to look after your grey when you are away? thats what I done on another forum and a few years later we are still looking after each others birds. We don't charge each other anything, just a simple case of if you watch my birds, I will watch yours. (a case of beer is usually exchanged tho ) Comes in handy too when decorating etc to keep them away from fumes etc.

Re: boarding an African Grey
We used to use a lady I got recommended on a parrot forum, she lived about half hour away from us. She used to breed blue/gold macaws but took in a few boarders as a side line. She only used to charge us about £1.50 day but unfortunately she gave up doing it. My daughter now looks after Merlin for us when we go away.

Whereabouts do you live? If you are anything like me, you won't trust your parrot to just anyone so it is important you find someone you are happy with to look after them who understands their needs.

Glad your niece can look after him for you. Have you warned her she may need ear plugs
