THAT is adorable and I could actually understand her! Assuming it is a "her" since it's more likely for a lovie hen to talk than a male. Thanks for the link! :D

That's great! I wonder if I could teach either of my new birds to say anything....

Wow! I didn't think it would sound that way! That was crazy! :omg:

I can't imagine what I would do if mine actually talked, since it's not very common. I'd probably scream from the shock, then he'd never do it again!:rofl:

I think it said "Gimme Kiss!" Just towards the end of the video. Listen again and you should catch it. The earlier noises are just regular chirps.

I posted that clip in the Behavior & Taming section a few months back ;) I'm positive that the beeb is saying "Gimme kiss" or "Gimme a kiss". It's too precious, regardless!

I thought it looked familiar! :D Yep, it is saying "Gimme a kiss" and what amazes me is that it's very clear coming from a small parrot not known for talking.

That's the clearest I've ever heard a lovebird talk before. It definately sounded like gimme a kiss. Of course, since Mijo, my CAG, is such a jabberjaw I'm thankful that none of my lovebirds or meyer's talk8o .

the one saying peek-a-boo is adorable too! Kiwi plays the game, but just does one of his many various chirps while hiding. Nothing remotely human sounding.

I couldn't help noticing his plucked back. I hope that lovie is okay.
