Char Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 It is the truth! Whisper is 18 months old. At about a year old she had 5 or 6 things she said regularly. At about15 months she started adding about 1 new phrase per week to her repetoire. For the past 2 weeks she has started saying a new phrase every DAY. Yakkety, Yakkety Yak. You can't shut her up.

Tycos_mom Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I get told I love you everyday also but its not from my Grey its frow my Macaw. I'm lucky if I hear it from my Grey one every couple of weeks. I guess like people some say Ilove you all the time and others its rare but when they do say it boy does it ever make yo feel great. Tyco loves me and I know this but she not one for saying it often she talks and talks and chatters all day long until you find yourself looking for the switch that turns her off but saying I love you is rare.

Janfromboone Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 So glad Alfie is talking now. I remember when I thought Tobie would never say anything except Whats-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acappella Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Phoebegirl, she's shown she can talk, but she's still very new to your home and her new flock. Talking to her will encourage her to try to communicate with you by talking. Be gentle, patient and loving and teach by example. She'll continue to progress under your care.
