For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.It sounds like your parrot could be sick. Are you sure that your Grey is a male? It sounds a lot like female territorial nesting behaviour. I suggest you take your bird to an avian vet for a check up. Birds hide their illnesses until they are very sick, so if you are noticing unusual behaviours now, the chances are that your bird could already be quite sick if illness is a cause for the change in behaviour.
I advise you to post your question at a place called Tailfeathers, where you will find many knowledgeable bird people there who may be able to advise you better: http://www.tailfeathersnetwork.com/community/
I hope your bird is okay.
