Well, since my girlfriends family has one of these on loan till he gets his feathers back, I thought Id share this.

They are amazing animals with the craziest ability to replicate noises. All kinds of sounds, words, tunes, etc. Half the time Im in their house I think theres a whole forest of birds but its just him.

Hehe, pretty neat. I saw this one clip on AFV kind of like that where this dog was soooo trained. He would back up and take X number of steps forward based on what his owner whould say. Then the owner said "I'll count to 3 and you get the ball." He counted to 1,2,6,11,22,ect, 3! And the dog got the ball right on. Amazing stuff.

I like the alien sound effects the bird did. Amazing amazing.

that blonde judge isn't fooling me with her wide open mouth. I'd walk over to her and smack her and say, "Act amused, not stupid."[lol]
Anyways, the bird was pretty sweet, me thinks I need one of those....

I thougth that the bird was relly cool. I liked how it could talk and make the funny noises I liked noise the bird made when it was doing a space ship sound I aslo liked how the bird could talk if I din'nt have cats I would buy one of these birds. How much does this bird cost? I can'nt get a bird becuse of my cats my cats would chase the bird all over the house my one cat whould poroubly play with the bird until it was died I will stick with cats becuse I love my cats and they are siame cats they are very fandly and they tlake alot. I don'nt think that I whould find a bird like that at a pet shop around were I live I like the bird becuse it can talk and make noises I whould never be lonly if I had this tipe of bird.

My girlfriends sister has an Afican Grey. They are pretty interesting birds.

The one thing I learned quickly about them is how sharp their beaks are[shocked]

Well, if they can converse with you kinda, sorta, maybe they're just as smart as chimps who can sign language at you![lol]

The bird is very funny. I wonder how long it took to train it to say and do all that stuff.
