what does your conure say?

[emilye2]

Moxie just hit me with a new phrase, "Hey baby!" she also has "Good Morning" and "Moxie bird" as reliable phrases. She says a bunch of other stuff but I can't understand it as words. She also whistles for the dogs like I do and imitates a machine gun from one of my husband's video games.

 

[Adz]

Mine says, "Birdie", "Birdie Loco", "Loco", "Num-Num" and "Poopy"!

He imitates the local Rosella's, Cockatoo's and Lorikeet's also. He calls out to them as they screech and fly past.

 

[Kokihi]

Tori says quite a few things that he has figured out mean good things for him when I say them:
"Hi Tori!"/ "Hi Tori bird!" when he wants attention
"Good bird!" when he wants a treat
"Be a good bird, Tori." When he wants out of the cage
"Wucha doin?" Also when he wants attention

and when he sees my boyfriend its always a big jumbled up mess of all the above words. XD

 

[Spiritbird]

Cricket has just turned 5 months and says "Hey Cricket". They are so smart and cute.

 

[featherfinder]

Sonny can say "I love you" It use to be when he wanted attention. Now its when he wants attention and right after he bites me lol. He can say pretty boy to. Sammy can bark like a dog. He actually says "ruff!" and then growls just like a dog. Very cute to watch.

 

[Crazy4Birds]

Nicky, my sunny, can say:
Good baby
What's the doggy say?
Woof!
Kiss kiss
Peek-a-boo
Erin (my name)
Ticky ticky ticky (when I tickle him)

 

[Nakiska]

Our Franklin is only 5 months old, but thanks to our chatty cockatiel - already he's saying...

Pretty Pretty Bird
Whatcha doin'
Him a good boy
Hello

and he just started saying

Chicken Little!

ROFLOLOL It's so funny because that's our male cockatiels name and he says his name often and when Chicken Little is in his chatty mood and saying everything he knows...Franklin will be in his cage saying...Chicken Little! Chicken Little! and then he goes..Haaa! Haaa! Haaa!

Tooo funny!

He's also trying to say...

How are you?

I'm really REALLY excited to have 2 very chatty boys.

[Riio]

My lil Rio can say "Rio" but thats about it! and its weird because he really only says it when its really noisy around, like when the vacume is going, or Im doing the dishes, or my 3yr old is wresteling with his dad. Its strange, does anyone else have a bird that only talks when its noisy?

 

[Trillium]

Oscar, my blue crown, says "Hiiiii!" all excited, "Hello", "What?" in rather a sarcastic way, "I lovvvvve", "Ouch!", "Papaya?", "Peek A Boo", "Pretty Paya", "You're a pretty pretty good birrrrd" (and all variations of that sentence), "Oh! Poor bird!" with perfect anguish in his voice, and he laughs like a human can AND like a vaudville villain "Ha ha ha ha haaaaa". Lastly, he sings his theme song which consists mostly of his name and the sentence "I am a bird".

 

[Rio Mom]

In the past few days, River is speaking more understandably. He's been saying "hi" pretty well, and I'm pretty sure I heard "what cha doin?" once a couple days ago, and it sounds like he's saying "Ri-ver!" also. I have to keep listening to tell if I'm just imagining things, or if my boy is really talking!

 

[andrea.faerie]

Lucy isn't talking at all :/ She makes a kissing noise but that's it. I heard her say MAAAAAAA once, that was before the earthquake but no real talking, just conure sqwaks. How can I encourage her to talk?

 

[kobe629]

Mine doesn't talk much and she is only 1..But can say step up and hellooo..

 

[Customcasket]

My sun says
Hello Carlisle (his name)
Good boy Carlisle
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

My dusky says
I love you
Peekaboo
What? What? What?
Are you a psycho? (that's my favorite. She likes to ask everyone that when we visit the local bird store)
She also babbles like a crazy bird and she likes to do cat calls and whistles when anybody walks past the bird room.

 

[Printer bird]

Our Charlie is a pretty good talker for a GCC and talks a lot and often. We didn't really train him, he just picked it up (although he will say hello for an almond). Here is a list of what he says and he sometimes combines his words so I've put some of the combos in brackets
Good Charlie
Good Buddy (buddy buddy buddy)
Hi Charlie (buddy)
no (no no no no no)
no bite
no chew(ing)
What are you doing?
Good boy!
What a good boy
Good
hello ( - this one is super cute, sounds like 'yewo' when he's relaxed)
OK
He also wolf whistles when we are in another room as it is the only thing that we'll reply to (we'll whistle back).

He has different voices and his favourite word is Charlie and it can be yelled, whispered, said in a really sad tone, excitedly and with good pronunciation depending on the circumstance. We love it! He even says "hi Charlie" when the mailman delivers the mail. Good boy, Charlie!

 

[Customcasket]

I managed to bust out the camera and record my Sun while he is in a semi decent not interested in attacking the camera mood. He did get snippy a few times while I was playing with his beak and scratching his head. I'm just glad he didn't decide to attack the camera :/ that's his favorite thing to do. He likes to play head dart with me and he also LOVES to say "hello" over and over as you can hear in the video. (Kayak is covered in the background because she was being obnoxious and having a serious attitude problem today and the parakeets are being loud and happy in the background.)

[ConureLove]

My little guy says "Winkee", "Do you like it", "Give us a kiss", "Hey mate" & "good boy", he also does this funny high speed chatter which we can't understand lol.

 

[Abbiebaby]

Abbie would say,

"Hey Abbie"
"Kiss" - and the smooching sounds
"Thank you"
"What?"
"Ok"
and she meowed like a cat

She also always seemed to do them in context, but I think she was just trained well. She would ask for a kiss make the sounds and then say thank you after you gave her one. She would also thank me everytime I gave her a treat. She was very polite.

 

[PrettyInInk87]

Actual words I have heard APple say.

Apple
Good morning
Pretty birdie
Hi boy
Hello
Hi Apple

To get my attention he makes a kissing noise and calls me that way. That is his favorite thing to mock. Also lIves making smooching noises. To answer someone's question above, Apple dies the same thing. He is only chattery when there is loud music playing, lous TV, or mocks what I say while I'm saying it.
