dan_erobbo Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hi, my congo is 10 months old and has started to string words together, but recently she has been making a noise as if water is trickling. Its really weird n not a clue where shes got it from....my friend has a congo n the same thing happened to him. Is it a normal noise for the grey in the wild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemyGreys Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Do you have a dripping tap ? Greys make a wonderful array of different baby noises, gurggling,whistles, mumblings this is often followed by mimicing speech.Sounds all normal to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hi, I agree with Tracy, my grey is the same age as yours and makes some really weird sounds which I have no idea where they came from. He has only started saying a few words at the moment, and can maybe put two words together. He babbles on and whistles all day long! Cant say I have heard a water trickling sound though. Maybe that is yet to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casper Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 They are so funny. I have two cats and he has started to make cat noises now, he is very vocal, I have heard a big difference in the last couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Josey does the same thing, she makes all kinds of sounds that I don't know where she got them from, who knows maybe she is making them up as she goes along:laugh: I just laugh:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jj_qpr11 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 lol same with corkey, and her noise is water related too...sounds like a massive DROP of water splashing into more water....hard to explain but its that sort of PLOP! sound. no idea where it came from. she also makes some embarrassing flatulence and burping sounds...obviously picked that up from her last owner not me lol :ohmy: funny though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The really funny one is where she mimics my laugh, she does it better than I can, and I had a cold a while back and she can do a real good cough and sneeze. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane08 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 You are right god knows where they get some of the noises from. Ours started to make a noise like a donkey (EEEEE O, EEEEE O) and I used to call him my little donkey...now we sure don't have a donkey as a pet so no idea where he got that from. He finally stopped it because everytime he did that noise I repeated a word to him that I thought he might be trying to say. He now uses the word instead of the donkey noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danmcq Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Well dan_erobbo - You must have water in your home. Perhaps your Grey hears you run the kitchen facet, make coffee, pour a drink etc. The other possibility, is perhaps you leave the bathroom door open when you take a tinkle or maybe your Grey is even on your shoulder when doing so. ;-) Just a few possibilities I thought I would throw out there. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
