I give Chyloe her fresh foods mainly for breakfast. Every day she gets corn, broccoli, various cooked beans, carrots, brown rice, sweet potato and one grape. At different times during the day, she gets a taste of other things we may be eating such as apple, blueberries, etc. She really loves mandarin orange.
Every new grey owner wonders about the chicken dance they like to do. All babies do it. Even older birds do it occasionally.

Hello Geordietulip and welcome to the forum. You could also try peas, butternut squash, peppers, mango, banana.
Yes they all do the chicken scratching thing. Young Greys do it the most but Mitzi does it from time to time and she is 20 now. It is probably something they do in the nest to keep it clean.
