LOL the things bird say are so funny I feel they know exactly what they should NOT say. The dog is prob always confused why a thing on two legs is yelling at him LOL That microwave is so cute!Redshift used to tell the dog to 'SHUT UP!' when she barked. And if the other cockatiels made a noise, especially at bedtime, he would tell them to 'SHUT UP!'. Please note, I only ever tell the dog this because she can be quite yappy at times. I mean REALLY yappy, like when I'm feeding her. Like a sun conure on 4 legs. OY!
Anyways... I digress.
Vortex is starting to beep like the microwave. She sees me go into the kitchen and beep beep beep. They are cute as dickens.
Charlie has started calling the dog 'WHAT NOW?' and when I feed him, he'll ask the same thing. He used to say 'water' when I used a waterbowl.
The fact he found out how to cheat is hilarious. I wonder what even went through his mind when he started doing that LOL I love the name btw! My bird does something like that she will half do a trick and herself a whole treat like you didn't finish that trick I saw thatA funny bit about Salty. I think everyone knows he does dozens of tricks. But you may not know that he cheats when ever he can. Take one - he has to put 5 little plastic rings on a post, one by one. He gets a treat for each one. But he has to take them off too and give them back to me, for which he only gets 1 treat when he is all done. Salty cheats by taking all 5 rings in his beak in one shot, just so he gets his treat quicker. I didn't teach him that! Parrots understand the concept of cheating all too well.
I understand that! Any moment I get to bring my bird up I will 100% do no time wasted! The fact name name-calling is on that list LOL! Oh my gosh, what a tease I'm laughing the exact same order he puts on a little show! what kind of bird? He sounds like a handful but sounds very funny thank you for sharing the story!Oh, you!
Giving me an excuse to tell a little tale. Okay, sure!
The closest the Rbird comes is a game one might call "Tour de Livingroom".
The Rb (flighted, fearless) will fly to an out-of-reach perch over the high wall-molding in the livingroom and engage in a rude behavior (screaming, name-calling, beaking something he has stolen)...
I yell at him to stop.
He won't.
I stand up and approach.
He still won't.
I grab a little portable ladder.
Now he knows I mean business.
He then flies to perch B, over the drapes, then perch C, on the chandelier (long since disabled, for safety), then the grandfather clock top mantel. Then back to the
high moulding. Same order, always. These are progressively lower perches. Teaser! Only ends when he gets tiered of it. The big rule: if I don't pursue with ladder, etc., he will absolutely scream and flap and tantrum untli I do.
I'm a lousy behavior modifier. I reward bad behaviors. Or... I play the game!
LOL i wish I saw that, a "sneezing" bird cant get better than that. Was she confused after? Like what just happened LOLmy lovebird loves copying sneezes, even with the motion! once when she was doing one of her 'sneezing sessions' with one foot on the cage wall and one on her toy, she was rather of balance, and she 'sneezed' so hard that she almost flipped over under herself!!
He also loves to whistle at older women at the grocery store...but only when my husband has him. He has really embarrassed him a couple of times now, because they often don't notice him in his Pac o Bird and think it's my husband.Pickles often finds really creative ways to entertain himself. He has tough himself how to use our ceiling fan as a merry go round. Before anyone gets alarmed, please note that we have disconnected and removed the wiring from it for him, and insured no places for little toes to get injured, etc. It is now only Eclectus powered. He figured out that the farther out he gets the farther it will spin for him. He hasn't gotten it to go all the way around yet, but we can certainly tell that is what he is going for. He will spend up to an hour some evenings running back over to the other side to get it moving again. It's pretty amusing to see.
ill have to send a video!, idr if she was surprised lolLOL i wish I saw that, a "sneezing" bird cant get better than that. Was she confused after? Like what just happened LOL
Patagonian Conure... pictured at left... the biggest conure...I understand that! Any moment I get to bring my bird up I will 100% do no time wasted! The fact name name-calling is on that list LOL!

I emphasize completely! My grey flirted w beautiful strange women. The hotter they looked the more seductive the masculine voice, complete w tiny kisses. If the woman played along, the kisses got louder and intense. Then I'd have to figure out the movie, series etc and put on banned from list.He also loves to whistle at older women at the grocery store...but only when my husband has him.
