Boarding an African grey
Greys notice everything, including whether the person cleaning their cage is paying attention to them. They board best with a predictable order to the day and the same person doing the same things at the same times, which is what a small house-based operation can actually offer.
African greys are regulars here, and there is usually at least one other African grey staying with us, so yours is rarely the only one of its kind.

African grey owners ask us
How much is African grey boarding?
$29.75 per bird per day. African greys sit in our extra large birds band (eclectus, African greys, amazons, cockatoos). Longer stays are charged at a lower rate per day — the discount is already factored into your quote, so there is nothing to ask for.
Will my grey pluck if it boards?
It is the risk owners ask about most. What reduces it is routine and company, not more handling — greys are watched for feather changes daily and you get photo and video updates, so you can see what we are seeing.
Are African greys more expensive to board?
Yes. Greys are in the extra-large band at $29.75 per bird per day. Longer stays are charged at a lower rate per day — the discount is already factored into your quote, so there is nothing to ask for.
Have you looked after many African greys?
Yes. African greys are regulars here, and there is usually at least one other African grey staying with us, so yours is rarely the only one of its kind.
