siobha9 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Wow the same question within a few minutes from 2 different members:laugh: At the risk of repeating myself... I shall tell you what I told the other poster;) There is no guarantees that a grey will talk. Not all do. For those that do it can be anytime from 6 months to 2 or 3 years. The average age does seem to be around their first birthday though. She will start to mumble and mutter before she talks, thats her way of practising!

Luvparrots Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Shanny, I hope you got your friend because you like parrots not because it could learn to talk. Some don't and the timeline is different for each parrot. Read some of the other posts. Some are named at the top of this thread. It depends of the parrot, some talk as early as 4 months, some 6 months and some longer, some not at all. It all starts with mumbles and imitations of sounds. Be patient. Enjoy your friend for all its antics and the wonderful companionship it can provide. Good Luck!!!:cheer: Relax, have patience and enjoy!!!<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2008/10/08 20:26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
