I haven't had much experience with big birds at all, so I don't know if I can be much help. African Greys can live for 80 + years though, so its a lifelong commitment and the birdie will probably be inherited by Dylan some day, maybe even your grandkids. So it is a BIG decision. For litter, I use news paper. Its what I've found to be the best thing to use as a cage liner for birds, plus I've heard most litters aren't good for birds, as they can eat them and cause damage.

I know they live a LONG time, which is why this is a BIG dicision. I already factored Dylan into the equation.

We used to use newspaper for out tiels, and our paper here has vegetable ink so it's pretty safe to use. I wouldn't use corncob, I was just wondering what another litter that would be absorbent? I can't put together my sentences right today lol. I'll go ahead and search the forum, thanks!
