Called me by name!!!!

[lotosha]

Lately my Grey talked some "parrotish" which slightly reminded me of my name "Natasha", so I said my name to her million times and yesterday when I came home she said "Natasha" very clearly. I melted on the spot and gave her million kisses, which she hates...so probably this was first and last time she called me by name. LOL

That is great! Congratulations!

How old is your African Grey?

She is almost two years . Not a very talented talker, but knows several words.

That is so exciting! I have been trying and trying to get someone - anyone - to say Daddy as it would thrill my husband, but so far nothing. But let me slip and say something I shouldn't and they pick that up immediately!

Aw! Hopefully she'll forget all the kisses and call you again!

Yes,go figure why they choose one word over another. I speak to them both Hebrew and Russian. So Tosia learned some words on Russian and some on Hebrew. It would be very interesting to know why she chooses one word from one language and another word from another language.

Haha, yes, hope so too.

I try to do my best
When I bought male Grey so she'll have a companion, I thought she'll stop talking, instead she learned many new words an even teached the male to say Hello. Very funny to hear them saying hello one to another in the mornings.
