Hi everyone, A most fascinating thing has happened. My Golden Conure named Muffin has taught my Violet IRN name Blueberry to speak and to call just like Muffin! They are both a year old albeit Muffin is a couple of months older. I'm sure others on this forum have experienced the same thing but for me it was the first time that I have had birds of different types teach other their calls and human speech. So much fun!!!!

Wow, that is amazing.
My budgies never learnt human speech although copied the sound of a canary from Bell. Now that he is old he doesn’t sing. Even though I do hear the beautiful song of a canary everyday, it’s not from him. :D

How fun! My birds have learned a few words from each other over the years.

A Queen of Bavaria Conure! That’s very cool :) you don’t see a lot of those; would you share a picture? Many people probably know it better as a Golden Conure :)

Yellow Shoulder Amazon, Salty
Totally believable ! My own yellow shoulder Amazon, Salty, has learned several words/phrases and even some opera, from watching videos of other parrots on Youtube! He actually learns best from Indian Ringnecks, for some reason, and a few choice Amazons. HaHa, your Golden COnure is giving you 2 for the price of 1. Cool, very cool !!

My mom had a pet store that specialized in birds. She had her main 3 cockatiels to keep, some breeders and the babies to sell. Well we had a cockatiel named Spike and he'd sing "Spike's a pretty bird" so much in a day that he taught the other cockatiels to do it and then with 3 birds saying "Spike's a pretty bird" all the time I'm pretty sure some of the babies for sale ended up learning it too.

I wish I could learn how to post pictures but I am so technologically impaired! LOL! I did however actually install my Apple TV yesterday! To me that was a major tech hurtle! Ha! One of these days I will sit down and try to do it. Thanks for all your comments. My parrot children are a joy to me as I am sure they are for all of you.
