judygram Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Has someone in the household had a cold lately for she might be mimicing that but if you have any concerns at all please contact your avian vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 When we adopted Sophie at age two, I made an appointment for " healthy bird appointment". Within two days being here... she was sneezing. Achoo! I was concerned, moved her appointment up. I had found an " avian specialist". Brought her in.... he couldn't help but laugh! She apparently was imitating Sean, my son, who was sick. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassy Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 What you may be hearing is the pre talking mumblings. My 6 mo makes lots of cool garbled/mumbling sounds and I can't wait door the first word to pop out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjv413 Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Piper does the same thing. It's their baby noise that they make... no need to go to the avian vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranaz Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 The funniest thing was when Kookie started coughing one day, I ran to to check him out but I saw and heard nothing. Next time I was just beside him and I saw him shake up while that sound came out, coughing like a smoker. I was seriously concerned when this was repeated and every time hi moves heavily as if it was coming out from deep within his chest. Hurried to the vet...who laughed at me cos Kookie was apparently imitating my neighbor who coughs out loud at night. Turned out Kookie was as healthy as a a little devil...

KatieUsher Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 Could she be starting to get her voice at only 16 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Just wait for the hiccups, farts and burps or belch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 A little young. Just encourage her, talk back. Remember... they will all fart, burp, sneeze, cough, it is important to remind them of manners! " excuse me!" LOL Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstPenguin Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Sounds like baby honking to me. I have a 5 month old CAG, when I got him he would make baby honks all the time on top of his practice talking, which pretty much sounded like Scooby Doo talking. they've got voice boxes that can produce sounds we can't dream of making. Unless these sounds are accompanied by sedentary or "sickly" behavior I wouldn't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
