"Where do you go about getting "owned" by an African Grey?"

I hope you are not serious with this. Most parrot owners see their pets as distinct individual personalities, demanding and entertaining. I am "owned" to the extent that his care and attention consume a measurable amount of my time. Parrots are not the kinds of pets you get and ignore. At any rate, it's a figure of speech, and merely illustrates the extent to which Buster affects my daily life. I'm sorry if I offended or confused you.

If parrots require so much stimulation and human interaction, what do they do in the wild?

Mr. S2R asked me to ask---he really wants to get a parrot, and wanted to know about how to go about getting one, ie. reputable dealers, etc....That's all I meant.
