Welcome to the forum! Do you know for a fact that the bird is a male? Has it been born already? Have you done your research as to the quality of husbandry the breeder has? This is the most important thing to take into consideration when acquiring a baby [something I do not recommend, most especially with grays which are known for turning on their owners when they reach the age of two - the breeder will deny this but it's a fact] because overbred parents produce weak babies, plucking parents usually produce babies that will pluck as they get older and, as grays are known for their pickiness in terms of food, if they are not weaned correctly to good food [something only a very good breeder will do], it will be a constant fight to get it to eat a good diet...
