I have a rehomed Grey named Oz who is 4 years old. He is the first bird we have owned and seems to befitting in with the family nicely. We got him in Dec. 2008 and he did not say a word until late January/ early February. It seems like I am his person. He wants to go everywhere with me, gives me kisses and whistles for me to come back when I leave. The funny thing is he will not talk in front of me. He has an amazing vocabulary...at least 100 words, speaks full sentences, and cognitive ability, but will only display this behavior in front of my wife and daughter....not me. We love Oz very much and wouldn't really care if he ever said a word, but I am wondering if anyone would know why he talks to my wife and not me. I hope it is not something that I am doing or not doing for him. If anyone has ideas, they would be much appreciated.
