lol like i said im abit deaf so i could of misheard it, but i do often hear him saying or making the noise that sounds like hes saying birdy. so this morning when i thought i heard him say pretty birdy i was abit shocked XD. i do talk to him quite alot coz its usually just me and him in the flat so he could of said it, i call him a pretty birdy when hes done something good.
as long as hes a happy bird though i dont ind if he learns to talk or not. i mean id like to try teach hi to say a few words and maybe see if he can learn any tricks, but im not someone who understands how it is you teach such things.
if he is actually saying words for sure il try get a video :)

It says the video is unavailable...

My Cricket talks a lot. He started at around 5 months. He learns new words quickly too!

I'd love to see your video, but it said it's unavailable for me too.

I think the best talkers are single male Parrotlets like Cricket, Bigboy and Spike.

Spike and his two brothers all could say "pretty baby" before they were 3 months old. When his brothers went to their new homes, the new owners told me they both said it again and again :lol:
