commen for untame irn to talk?
My male indoor aviary IRN is starting to talk! Its in with his normal chirps and whistles but I can CLEARLY hear him saying "hello".....im super excited because I thought it would only be the super tame hand fed birds that would talk. My cockatoo talks but I dont even think she knows shes a bird lol

I don't see why not, that is pretty cool tho.
Re: commen for untame irn to talk?
Yeah I didnt figure hed talk because hes older and not really tame but he keeps saying hello
Re: commen for untame irn to talk?
my mother had a cockatiel when I was a kid.. the bird was never worked with and got little to no attention and ate only bird seed.. he sat in the living room and was ignored for the most part.
He didn't whistle a lot and when he did i would yell at it to shut up and slap its cage around. (i was probably 13 or 14 and didn't see things as i do now)
anyway one day the phone rang and the bird said hello. that was pretty neat. I stopped being mean to that bird after that.

Sorry, been offline for awhile...baby broke my phone lol thanks for the reply miss k, you make me laugh.
Re: commen for untame irn to talk?
Has he continued saying hello or is he getting away from it? My bird showed signs or wanting to talk, said a couple things and would happily pick up a new tune to whistle but for some reason he has abandoned all of it

tasha~ That's what I'm here for!
I wish I could blame someone else. I just broke my own computer and had to swear at myself all the while I fixed it.

I do that all the time....I walk through my house asking myself Tasha, what the @!^# are you doing? Lol any who, Mr Paco has added 2 new words as of this morning. He said hi popcorn. Hes apparently picking up vocabulary from the cockatoo
Re: commen for untame irn to talk?
From the sound of it, you're lucky he's NOT picking up things from YOU!
