He can learn--it's not too late. My cockatoo has learned new words as an adult even. Not all birds talk much though- even if exposed to language etc.

Starting as soon as possible is the best way and keep working on developing language over their entire life.

You mean 5 to 6 month still in the safe side to teach him words correct

We work with older Amazons and from the day they come to live with us, we work on teaching language /communication /contact calls.
FYI: Parrot communication is far more than just Human Language. We also, need to learn their Language.

Enjoy!

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Don't think you can go wrong by starting early, if the bird is not ready your effort simply wouldn't register. My understanding is parrots can learn to speak at later stages of life.

You can post a few images using forum-hosted memory. Easiest method is via free hosting service such as Imgur. This post highlights the procedure: http://www.parrotforums.com/technical-support/6287-how-post-pictures-6.html#post718293

If you desire to post videos, best method is uploading to YouTube account and simply sharing the link.

Parrots never stop learning words,IMHO, and we never stop learning their language

Any age. Birds who want to talk will learn things all their lives. Rocky's 9 and my cockatiel is teaching him to whistle. LOL

Today mine said, "I'M your favorite bird!" (CRAZY...because I only ever say, "your'e my favorite bird.") These words came out of her mouth for the first time today and she is almost 12.
