Everytime i see a yellow head parrot just like this one it make me sick to stomach ,i had one just like this parrot ,my parrots are was beautiful and sold it i should have kept it ,the worst part is i sold it for 250.00 you can not find a parrot like this for that price they are very expensive .

[@JarisaM]

[@ChildofGodforevr]

Irma Deleon why would u sell your pet. I would never sell my cat and my cat is worth thousands. Ppl offer me a fortune for him and I always say no not for a million dollars. My Rotti/boxer Spikey was an incredible dog. Loved by everyone and again ppl offered me lots of money to sell him. I always said no, never. He’s family and I love him. He died at 13 yrs old. He had a great life of being loved and spoiled to death. We still miss him and cry when I see videos of him singing or being goofy

Well, this is clearly an instance when the parrot's trainer should also be a good ventriloquist. :)

[@budgienation]

She's not a ventrilloquist, and I hope that little 'smiley' meant you were kidding. Parrots have great potential as talkers and make more sense, more often than the 'talking bobble heads' they show on FOXNOISE.

Keri Lushefski it's also a stress movement. which is correct? nobody will know. but saying it's not a stress movement? you probably did not study enough
