When I had my first African Grey, Gandalf, she always heard my parents asking me every single day if I was working or not. One day on my day off I was watching TV in my room while Gandalf played with a toy on my lap. She suddenly stopped playing walked right up to my face looked st me and said "Are you working?" I was so surprised and I replied "No baby it's my day off. I'm going to spend all day with you." She looked at me and said "Ooooohhh " and then went back to playing with her toy.

[@Avocetexotics]

Oh my gosh! That is so cute! Birds are so incredible! Give Gandalf a treat for me! ❤

[@sneakycheeks]

@@Avocetexotics sadly Gandalf passed away suddenly 3 years ago. I miss her very deeply. But I currently have another Grey named Gabby that I took in after my cousin couldn't care for him anymore. I've had him for about 2 years he's 13.

[@gvmmy_bear]

Thomas Glidewell I’m so sorry. Three years ago my dog passed away, so your not alone. 💔

[@lowkey_robloxz9105]

When I see my bird stop cause he would poop

[@punkyfeathers1639]

That’s adorable!

[@galeem713]

When I come into the room, I get a “Hi Babe” from my Quaker; he’s a closet talker. My moustache says things like “Do you trust me? I trust you” if I say yes, he says “of course you do” , but if I say no, there is a pause, and then he says “yes you do”. He says much more but some is just gobbledygook

[@susanhall8913]

I didnt realise Merlin could talk so well. We dont see enough of him

[@abueloraton]

He's hilarious!

[@bug9743]

I’m very introverted, so I taught my Grey to say, “Hey a(---)hole!” Just to drive people away from my room. This is why I have no friends 😂

fracc90 have you seen kiwi and pixel the budgie? He’s here on youtube. And both are amazing. Opened my eyes to how budgies can speak as well as any big bird.

He said to her "you are the best" awww I'm melting 😍😍💜

[@TheYAyaLady]

Oh my goodness, I didn’t realize that Merlin talked so much! I love it. He said”That’s good explaining”. I was like woah! I know the Merlin story and I’m so glad he’s with you Marlene! Actually I was a hatchling around the time you first saw him.

I am going over your training videos getting ready to adopt my birds. I'm realizing that it is just like raising a child.

Marlene Thank you for your videos. I look forward to them. Love Brando

[@Avocetexotics]

I love how Merlin just sat there an agreed with every thing you said. It is truly incredible how much they understand. They are so incredibly smart! I love Merlin and his little plucked belly! He is precious. When I move out I want to adopt an old bird and let them live out the rest of their lives the best way they could ever imagine with me. It is crazy that you could get a 21 year old bird and still have it for 40 years or 60 years or even longer. Thank you for all of the reacueing you do. Love you ❤. Give the each of the birds a treat for me.

[@anaa9626]

Brando looks like she’s getting her colors! She is so beautiful!

I have spent months studying parrot training and found an awesome resource at Parrot ploy plan (look it up on google)

[@ferreyoyornc.a233]

There are many factors in training a parrot. One place I found that succeeds in merging these is the Parrot ploy plan (check it out on google) it's the best blueprint i've seen.look at all the super information .

[@HZXLR]

XD

[@heathersargent289]

I don't think I have ever heard Merlin talk so much . Have you see Pebbles the cockatoo, she is something else she freaks out and goes of on crazy tangents. I love the way Brando is looking at you she is so cute, I just love all your animals.

[@davetown]

Thanks Marlene. I appreciate the time and effort that you put into your videos. The information is a great help. Keep up the good work!

[@123rosebuds]

Merlin-"Oh Her." You said she was so funny. "Yeah hilarious." He's had a real change in personality. Sweet!

[@debbie4503]

Your African Grey is talking to you. LOL

[@NOoneWILLhear]

What Marlene said about Rockies old owner really got to me as well, honestly. It's so bitter sweet and I'm really happy that the past owner respected and loved Rockie despite the fact that their relationship had crumbled. Hearing about people who just tries their best to understand and genuinly cares for their birds even when the bird is being 'bad' or 'angry' is something that I wish every bird owner did and I am incredibly thankful for people like Marlene who spreads these words of wisdom to all of those who listen

[@Evgeniamitovaa]

[@sharynzoo]

Loved this! Great advice. I never did a video about this & your ideas are exactly how I communicate with my little feathered angels 💕 Repetition and consistency is the key. Having that special bond with your bird and really understanding what their Needs & Wants are make all the difference in the world 💕 Great job Marlene communicating to others how to really interact with our Birds in the way they truly deserve and desire 💕😘💕

[@ottaknow]

I love African Greys. We had a Timneh. The best little guy and he talked amazingly. He could use the voices of all the family members. Repeat phone conversations and call the dogs. (they fell for it at first). I wish that I would have videotaped him. We miss him dearly Thanks for sharing your birds. ❤️

[@lilconcon5162]

Thank you so much

[@wyattspop]

Great advice, every animal learns best when you associate it with their natural behaviors, things they would do even without your coaching

[@ellahwilson9633]

I got an African grey and had her for a few months and right now I’m changing her diet bc the last owners that had her just didn’t take care of her at all they gave her beer and basically only seed recently she stopped picking her feathers which is good

[@drstrange9438]

Damn, beer is really bad for birds; heck it isn't great for humans either. Some people just shouldn't have pets period.

[@arnav6848]

Your the best

[@beebug1_766]

My 2-year-old cockatiel is so cute, I didn’t even try to teach him what he knows, we just say it to him out of habit and to be funny. He knows how to say, Birdie birdie birdie, whatcha doin’, bye birdie/hi birdie, Avery(my name), and he also knows how to make kissing noise and do cat calls 😂 it is about to be our second year with him on June 20th so we are making progress! I am so glad I have a parrot. Very worth the cost!

[@lorimancuso8487]

What a great class this was really very well done and i so agree with everything you said !! I so enjoy this it nice to be remind because even if you had birds for years sometimes we can become lazy and we should give a 100%

[@NicoleWSimone]

Merlin is so smart

[@dakotasexoticpets741]

“They will get what they ask for” “That’s true” birds are amazing

[@kathleenadriaensen7129]

Heh Marlene. You are a natural teacher when watching your vidios is very easy to remember what you said. Its a gift not everyone has. I struggled in school because I had very poor teachers. You stay consistent and speak clearly. As far as I'm concerned you should be called " the bird whisperer " if not already have been referred to. I mentioned a few times over the years that I have followed you that I wish you did some sort of Acting, as in movies OR any form of this I know your life with your flock keeps you plenty busy, but maybe you could include your birds. Anyways all your 6 ways to teach your bird to talk was well spoken with great info and easy to follow, so thx for sharing. Always Long Time Fan, Kathleen 🥰❤.

[@123rosebuds]

:Hilarious, Merlin says, That's good explaining, to you you're the Best. What an intelligent birdie!

"I answer!"--my favorite

[@paulam.593]

LMAO you are so right, my african loves drama, he imitates like normal things, a squeezing door, or a sneeze (not good in coronatime) or a bottle of wine (also coronatime LOL) but he likes to exeggerate everything

[@peterzimmerman1114]

I got myself a baby african gray but she sure took her time to start talking think it took almost a year whiel a previous one had learned after just a few months. I had noticed however that she seemed to understand a lot of what I was saying, so picking up the language didn't seem to be the problem. One day I jsut told her. "Why arn't you talking to me?!?" "I expect you to talk to me, it's the normal way of things." Her eyes grew grew huge her neck long and she stared at me in what looked like astonishment and shock. And I think she tried to say something. The next day I heard her first few real words. She has been working hard on her communication skills ever since.

[@leiad1321]

I am saving up to get my first gray I have already saved up £105 and I am going to look at birds next month I have two budgies and I love birds I have been watching u since I was 10 and now I am 13 and I still love your videos and thank you for the constant entertainment and telling me more about birds every video so thank you

Could you possibly do a video on how to handle/tame an aggressive parrot?

[@lollypops4620]

I have a African Grey and all day long she just says Pika boo

[@tkanimations7572]

I adopted my scaly-breasted lorikeet, Loki, about six months ago and I love him to bits. I don’t know where exactly he came from or what his backstory is but he obviously came from another home because he already knew several phrases before I got him. His favourite thing to say is “Poppy” and if he wants my attention he will start shouting “where’s Poppy?” until I come over to see him. My name isn’t Poppy but I think he’s associated me with that name because of his previous home, and it’s honestly the cutest thing. I want to start teaching him more phrases though so these tips will be really helpful!
