African greys are my fav birds out of all i have owned. He is actually still alive and living with a family member O/S since i cant bring him into oz
and incredibly he actually cost me around $100 hahaha. They are amazingly intelligent ( Check out Alex the african grey on youtube or einstein the AG) Alex would blow your mind away because of how intelligent he is. But you got to be very careful raising any of the medium or large parrots from amazons,eccies,macaws etc.. Because they can really be a big problem and destroy everything
