It´s nice to see that this is a parrot thing and not just a Watto thing . I was afra...

Watto bowes and says thank you :wink: I´m still amazed even though he havent said a word after that.
He is a naughty boy, he tries to throw toys on the guineapigs and steel their food.
I can´t thank you enough for all your advice who has help me and still are.

Hi! no but he has a ring around his leg, I don´t know what the term is in english.
I think I can se there how old he is, but I have to wait until he trust me enough to let me check.
He is at least 4 years old, I have had him for two and I understand that the ring does´nt show until they are two.
