okay, i read your summary above now let me tell you about Casper, my 17 yr old Congo African Grey Parrot my parents rescued after she had been abandoned. By the time she had been medically cleared and all fees were paid my folks had her for about $2500 and she still wears her leg band placed on her when they got her. She has been healthy and happy and precocious, social, loving, like a lapdog with feathers at times....but not ever once did anyone in our family ever consider pushing her to train for any show...she is very intelligent, has well over two hundred clearly spoken words and many completely thought out phrases she comes up with on her own. She is not simply a mimic, she is capable of thought and reason and she continues to surprise me daily. I inherited her a couple of years ago, and she has taken to me as if i am her mommy. She misses my dad who passed 12 yrs ago, when Casper was only about 4 or 5 yrs old. My mother is still alive and well but cannot care for the birds any longer so I have Casper and her roommates. My dad built an aviary for the birds and a huge cage customized for Casper and she is happy and loved and brilliant. But I have never once considered making a mockery of her.

When I lived in Belize, we had a yellow headed parrot, named Maggie. A tourist had bought her and found out she couldn't take her back, so we ended up with her. Her first words were "Paula, HELP!" It took me a while to figure out who was saying it.LOL She was also our watch dog, we had her cage outside, so when people approached she would say "Hello" or "Good Morning". Everything this lady said is true!! The attention, the toys, the poop, the food, and destroying your furniture is like living with a 2 year old for 35+ years. Maggie gave us lots of joy, especially when she sang songs, cause we sang a lot. However, we had to move back to the US and had to leave her behind with another couple.

Thanks for this great story. I did research in Costa Rica years ago, and knew a family with a yellow-head in the same situation. She hung out on a huge mango tree in the front yard by day, slept indoors, had baths and chatted with her people, who spent most of their time in the yard with her doing work and preparing food. Sorry you had to leave her behind, but glad you found a nice place for her. Parrots live a long time, even longer than horses. That's why both parrots and horses often have several owners during their lives... much more so than dogs or cats. I tried to raise Clover to be socialized and speak in a G-rated way just in case I ever left Turkey and would need to rehome her, and that turned out to be a good decision. With her tricks, talking and socialization, she was highly adoptable and landed a wonderful home.

the smoke alarm would have my walking around to each room with my ear to the ceiling

The parrot family varies in how noisy they are; certain types tend to screech, others don't. African grays can screech but very rarely do so (haven't heard mine screech in years), however they have the capacity for high decibels at all kinds of sounds. If you want a relatively quiet parrot, get a pionus. I have one of those too, and other than his talking and whistling, he's virtually silent. NO screeching at all. BUT; he barks like a dog, so whenever someone walks by his window, I get the same noise that someone with a yappy mutt does. Lots of parrots learn to use english (or whatever language, or whatever sounds) to get what they want; when you respond in any way to a noise they can make, they learn to make that sound when they want the behavior that the sound gets you to do! So, just never respond in any way to a screech, make absolutely no response at all; don't yell, don't move or change your behavior in any way, and you'll get less screeching! People that get upset over screeching are actually giving the bird entertainment so the bird learns to get that entertainment by screeching. then he gets to see his human jump up and down and make noise too!

@d.e.b.b5788

10 жыл бұрын

They aren't intrinsicly noisy; they don't usually screech on their own, but they learn other bird's sounds easily. So if you have another noisy bird, your gray will learn the 'noise'. And there's no way to know if a bird will talk. In discussions with other bird owners, it's possible that how you interact with your bird will determine how likely he is to talk. Treat him like a person, and maybe he'll act like a person. Remember, they only learn sounds (and words) that they want to. Make your bird want to talk to you and maybe he will. Talk to him all the time, as if you will be expecting an answer just like when you talk to another person. And if he sees you talking to another person, he'll get the idea that talking back is normal. I even had a lovebird that talked a little. So I believe it's not a question of if, but when they decide to talk.

I got a baby Macaw when I lived in the Virgin Islands.We were together all the time so we called him Juni. You are right. They need a lot of upkeep and attention. Mine was loving and spoke a few words, but nothing like the author off this video.Congratulations.

Who came up with phrase "dumb animals" has obviously not seen this. This bird speaks better English than some people.

She's just having her own little conversation lol she's cute😄

my roommate can say, I don't have any rent money

And "Let's go buy a lot of ketamine"

When it gets to the part where the writing says, "Lets ^^^ an egg." I think she was saying, "Let's scramble an egg." She's so cute!

It’s amazing they can have such a vocabulary, they clearly don’t understand language, or grammar, but they do better then most animals, minus maybe the gorilla, which genuinely understood basic grammar.

I wonder if anyone's actually taught a parrot how to speak properly, not just copying you, but making up their own sentences to talk to people.

RileyGuy1000 MY birds speak very clear what they do is they love to practice in private with a garbled structure. they pick up the most silliest things and they do truly understand. my birds tell me PET ME when they want to be petted. they say I am a good boy or i'm a good girl. when i leave the house mine beep chirp and tell me i'll be right back. they tell me good morning when i get up they tell me what they want to go to sleep with night night birdie or keiki go night night. they even make up their own words and this was not taught in the morning keiki tells me Nummy which is for her yummy foods and she says apple? apple? then she came up with NAPPLE for apple and nummy put together. i can tell my birds call the puppy and she will call the puppy by name and say come here come here thats a good girl and laughs at her and the lets out stinker and raspberries the dog. they are VERY smart. this is why they say watch what you say around them for if they like it they will say it! my guys are 16 and 25 yrs old with a HUGE vocabulary. and my annie before she died at 3 1/2 yrs old she had a 100 word vocabulary!

Joanne D My parakeet Gunner calls to our puppy. He says, "Piper! C'mere!" With a kiss kiss kiss noise. He (the parakeet) also will come when called most of the time.

They sound almost just like their owner! I am impressed.

That is the smartest talking bird I’ve ever seen
