Timneh African Greys are amazing and intelligent parrots. They are considered the smartest of the parrot family, and the best talkers. Due to this though there are certain behaviors that African Greys are prone to if not handled, and trained correctly. They will quickly turn to neurotic behaviors, and self-mutilation if not given a good amount of mental stimulation. When not well socialized they are also known to become biters. Also if not given enough socialization they will very quickly turn into a “one person” bird which is very hard to break them off.
Timen African Greys normally live 50 to 65 years but are now know to live much longer due to better diets and care that’s now available. Thought, and consideration should go into the purchasing of a companion bird because these are lifetime companions.
