You CAG shoul stay away from the budgies and he can kill them easily. Give him time to adjust, he needs to get used to his environment. Did you have a baby shipped?

Read as much as you can on them online from different articles. Also, you probably paid about double the price for a healthy, young baby from a breeder because pet stores are ridiculously overpriced.

You need to do a LOT of research from reading different sites on the internet. Look for an African Grey forum that is specific to the species.

it said on the window that it was $1488 and i was like O_o but alot of sites said it was around $1000 so i talked wtih them and my parents so in the end it was around $1200 including food and toys etc, also i have researched like a billion pages on CAGs, oooh and btw just right now he letted me pet his head and scrach his head etc and i think my research skills are pretty good since im going to a specialized hs like top 3 or soemthing school in nyc
