I posted this question on another bird site but thought I'd ask here too.

At what age is an African Grey no longer a baby? And, what age does adolescence start...and when does adulthood start??

Thanks!!
Heather

I have read that is't around 2 that they fully mature. Of course, sometimes it is eariler or later, but around that age.

I've always thought it was later than 2. More towards 3, or even older.

Edit: Did a quick google search and here are the top finds.

The point: Nobody really knows for sure?? LOL! I'm sure it differs a bit in all greys. I would say anywhere between 3-6.
