Luvparrots Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Let's see, put on the thinking cap, or just google: Presidents Andrew Jackson, Ulysses Grant, William McKinley, and Theodore Roosevelt kept parrots in The White House. President McKinley's double-yellow headed Amazon was very popular with White House guests because it often shouted "Oh, look at all the pretty girls!" Theodore Roosevelt had a Hyacinth Macaw named Eli. He was afraid of the bird's beak, but there is no record of Eli being a "biter". First Ladies Martha Washington, Dolley Madison, and Grace Coolidge had pet parrots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to have to go for a tour and look for evidence. Another great informative topic Ray. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
