murfchck Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 So last night the neighbor came over and Cotay was on Pats shoulder. As soon as she saw her, Cotay promptly plucked out a feather. We politly rushed her outside so Cotay would relax again. How sad. Cotay is just a cutie pie. She yaks and yaks. We got a "Listen, "insert fart sound here", hahahaha" It was so funny! Now its "Are you ready?" "Go to work!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywings Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 She has that extra boost of personality and she does look relaxed and happy in the photo. Real Sunshine and keeping her showered and wet with Aloe Juice or water will help her a great deal. Maybe a little extra protein would not be out of line either.

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Cotay i'm sure is going to bring you lots of joy! My rules of cussing is to do it in the garage! Needless to say... my boys spend alot of time in garage. Sophie has a very clean mouth, but it took forever to get her over a new cuss word, as we had a revolving door of foul mouthed teenagers!LOL! Asshole is her favorite. I give her the " stink eye", when she does it. She knows. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfchck Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 I remember Gabby and how much that girl hated me when she moved in. Cotay hates me more, I can't even go near her cage or get her to step up. She does lure me to her with the sweetest hello and come here, then when i am close to her she strikes out at me. I am giving her her space and the time she needs, after all, Pat is her chosen one so she does get handled everyday and lots of play time so its okay with me. It has been a little over a year and Gabby has just started letting me touch her, when she wants anyway, and mostly her beak or the ever special back stroke. You guys won't believe what she said also... Howard. Both of us were shocked. Gabby use to call Pat Howard when she first got here so to hear Cotay say it had me rolling. Pat said he was going to find this Howard and ask him to stop getting birds and teaching them his name! Me, i have decided to teach Bubba to say Howard also. I got a How outta him last night. Pat just shook his head. lol Can't beat em, join em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 LOL to the Howard! Maybe the birds know something Pat doesn't. Obviously, he is a "Howard" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfchck Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 I forgot to mention that Cotay and Bubba talked to each other yesterday. Bubba told us bye and cotay replied with its ok they'll be right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murfchck Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 Cotay has been saying this one word over and over since she has been here, we thought it was spanish or something. Finally able to get the meaning of the word. It's Laqueta (sounds like lakweta), a few of our spanish speaking friends have said it could mean water but they would need to hear it because it is very much like other words. I put it in a google search and low and behold it means, African girl. I am starting to wonder if this was her name at one point. She has a few voices and when she says that it is clear as a bell along with all her other fun words but when she says Cotay, it is very soft and almost a wisper as if it is a new word for her. We don't know which to call her. As confused as we are she must be baffeled! We are starting her flying lessons this weekend, lol. She has zero control, she will take off and just fly upward and her landings consist of hitting the wall and dropping to the floor. So we are not encouraging this right now of course. We tried a few short flights but the poor girl just couldn't master it and was so winded it sounded like she was weezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Interesting! I wonder if that was her original name which would make sense. On the other hand, she may just be telling the waiter to refill her water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Good for flying lessons! It is always important to have another family member to be on opposite side of room, to be the goal. We always practiced flying with two members always. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
