It’s the funniest thing hearing him vocalize and sometimes on the first time hearing the word.

This is when you have to sensor yourself.
unless you want a bird that will embarrass you.

I beg to differ, the day you bring them home you need censoring. :11:

They are always watching and listening, long before they start expressing themselves.

From our experience, absolutely NOTHING escapes them. It's not whether they will repeat something they've heard...it's WHEN they'll repeat it! They do seem to have a knack for knowing the worst, most embarrassing possible time to repeat things!

Perjo - Female CAG hatch Nov 2015
Perjo is now 27 mos old, talker her feathers off, most of it came about in the last 5 mos. She's even saying things I haven't said in a year. It's beyond cute and rewarding. My biggest issue is do I really sound like that?

Sounds like Chico is very comfy with his surroundings. So that's an A++++ in your bank account. Well done!
