Thread: fun help with my parrot please..

hi gang, i recently was given a parrot from a friend of mine.. and i am teaching him new words and phrases, but i am all of a sudden drawing a blank was wondering if anybody else owns one and things your pet may say as well?

so im looking for some cute different original phrases to teach him.....

hes a very smart bird and has amazed the heck out of me by learning new words/phrases only within 2 days... so i figured i would ask for some ideas....

so far he says..

hello

prettyboy

prettybaby

awwwwww good boy

i love you

polly want a cracker

peek a boo

wheres lucky? ( lucky is my cat) this is cute how he calls him lol

whats up doc





thanks again for your help i appreciate it. peggy

My sister's bird calls the cat "Here Kitty, kitty, kitty" If he is out of the cage he will hide behind the sofa and call the cat - then jump on his head and beat the heck out of him with his wings. The cat panics and the bird flies to the top of the bookcase and laughs "Bwaahahahaha" - which she also taught him. Stupid cat falls for it everytime....

Also "Damm it Jim, I'm a doctor..." although you have to listen for it... still a bit garbled.

this is cute! http://www.metacafe.com/watch/26051/talking_parrot/

I love at the end where it says 'superstar' LOL

Damm it Jim, I'm a doctor..." HOW ADORable is this? lmao.... THANKS...buttr- gonna check link now thank you

My bird says close to 1500 words, think real hard if you really want him/her to talk...lol...
Mine also says Here kitty kitty...so cute. (I have no cats...lol.)
He says "come here stupid puppies...lol.
He says "Brady is a crybaby...(Brady is my youngest son)
"Steven do your homework" (Steven is my oldest)
"Granny's here get busy...(My mom taught him that, it means get cleaning)
"Hey Randy Baby...(My dh)
of course, he says hello when the phone rings, says come in when someone knocks on the door, he can sound just like a telephone, microwave and of course my faovrite, the smoke detector...fun fun in the middle of the night.
He yells for both of my boys by name and sounds just like ME!!! When I call for one of the boys, he says WHAT? Which in turn has caused the boys to get an "Excuse me?" out of me, since they have to answer...yes mam...lol...
They are a real enjoyable pet, but be warned, they are messy, can get very loud and need alot of attention...and they are so worth it.
What kind of parrot is it?
You must teach him the wolfwhistle...it makes you feel great when you walk in the room and he whistles..haha...sad aren't I?
I now have him saying "Teri hates birds"...LOL...am working on getting him to complete the phrase to say Teri hates birds, but I love Teri...haha...Gonna call Teri when he has it complete and is willing to talk...

But not a chicken...haha...if he doesn't say it on the phone I will tape it and send it to you.

She also taught him to say "Bad Bird Bites" - because he would bite the kids who were incautious enough to stick their fingers in his cage.

My SIL has a bunch of birds and one laughs like a man... very creepy! I can't imagine hearing that in the middle of the night lol
