My Bird taled he said DAT

For years I worked second shift so I came home & everyone was asleep. My company each night was a dusty conure named sprite. He was quite a character. He played cards by holding several, throwing them all down then running away with the pile of coins. It took a good while but I finally got him to say "I'm a chicken hawk & your a chicken!". He never talked to anyone else though for the longest time. One weekend night when my wife gave him a treat he said"Thank you". My wife responded with "Your welcome" then fell over the chair when she realized she was having a conversation with the bird. Coincidentally he's also the one who taught my daughter how to eat. He liked her baby food & would often clean up the leftovers ( there were often a lot since she REFUSED to eat them ). She found him funny & before long we realized that if he was eating some she would to. We'd gave him his own spoon full ( which he held himself )of her food to eat & if she could see him eating it she'd eat it too.

I did many years ago but have not had a Bird since my Cockatil He used to talk and talk and talk and it was me he was copying lol If you keep at it believe me they do talk and will not stop
