ranaz Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hi Everybody, Was listening to Kookie chat today and it just occured to me how some greys are able to immitate voices in a way that you wouldnt recognize if it is the human or the grey speaking. My brothers grey Cookoo can immitate several voices so he can sound exacly like my brother, or like his wife , or like their friends...etc. Kookie on te other hand can immitate me in few words, but mostly he says the words in a strange voice, sounding like a robot or like a rough mans voice. Hee even sings the words sometimes and combines them in a funny way. He mumbles long sentences, that are not clear, and he takes some words and says them in so many differnt voices and rhymes. Would like to know who does your parrot sounds like? Can she or he immitate your voice , or he has his own voice? It would be really interesting to get as many postings as possible <br><br>Post edited by: ranaz, at: 2009/11/20 13:17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Charlie sounds like me but does sometimes talk in his own voice. He makes his own noises up as well as the normal household things. My Dad sometimes comes round to bird sit and Charlie sometimes talks just like my Dad.<br><br>Post edited by: she, at: 2009/11/20 22:43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 My greys mainly talk in my husband Daves voice, even if its a word or sentence they have learnt from me. Just recently though, my daughter has been talking to Charlie the eldest grey like something crossed between something off the Gremlins and the Grudge! He has picked this voice up really easy and it sounds really scary:ohmy: They seem to love different accents and love when plenty of expression is included, it seems to make things more interesting for them. It looks as though Daves voice is the favourite though and is what they all use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvparrots Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Ana Grey has a gravelly voice so I suppose it is her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Dayo only speaks in my voice. Even if he learns a word or phrase from my wife, he uses my voice. I'm worried one of these day's he will use this ability to get me in trouble with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranaz Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Its very cute how our greys use speech, and its amazing how they can catch the voice tone and pitch. I guess mostly Kookie has his own, although he sounds like me in some words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearllyn Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Alfie does have her own voice, but she also does mine and Davids. She will take stuff she's learned from either of us and say it in my, Davids or her own voice! She also whistles alot and makes up her own tunes, as well as ones she's learned from us! Great photo btw! Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Josey uses both mine and my hubby's voices, his is deeper than mine and usually what she copies of his is in his deeper tone. Rana, I love that picture of Kookie, it looks like she is holding a mirror checking herself while she preens, thanks for sharing it with us.
