A talkin' lovebird? I'm trying to get my quaker to talk with no luck.

 

[jhale]

they are very cute looking, I'd like to have some but I have a cat.

kris if you want your quaker to talk invest in a tape recorder or radio.you can record a phrase you want it to learn on your pc, put it on a cd over and over and over and over, set the radio to repeat the tracks and just let it play everyday until the bird learns the phrase (you must also spend as much time as possible repeating the phrases you want it to learn).that's the easiest way, the best way would be to just interact with it all the time as much as possible...

[charliethetuna88]

Jose, Chubby's outside all day. I have two parakeets, and I think they might be the problem. Every noise that they make he makes. I did teach chubby how to laugh though. He gets alot of playtime with me and my dad(only people he likes). Guess he would just rather be a parakeet.

 

[Reef Guy]

hey they do speak! according to this http://www.birdsnways.com/wisdom/ww19eiii.htm and other articles

 

[spykes]

[DRZL]

Sounds very tempting....I dont know! damnnit..lol...I dont want to buy something cus its cute though you know. It's F'd up to the animal

I think you have to look at it like you would when getting a dog or cat. birds require attention, and they do bond with you. you also need to have someone to look after them when you go away.

 

[Reef Guy]

Well with love birds they dont need as much attention since they have each other. And the great thing about birds is they dont need water to be topped of so you can get them those vacation sticks and the large water tubes that will last atleast a week
