Cuteness Overload: African Grey Gizmo Takes Care of New Indian Ringneck Bloob for the First Time!

[@leitmotif7268]

I love that “whatcha doin” comes standard with every single Indian ring neck lol

[@gizmothegreybird]

Haha yes! Like a default setting 🤣

[@riverstone9005]

That and "Tickle Tickle."

[@bonnie-and-chica]

Rlly? My bird only says peekaboo

[@dudemorris7769]

Yes it does, lmao.

[@dudemorris7769]

@@bonnie-and-chicanfortunately not all birds talk, including large parrots & greys. Quaker parrots are the best talkers & imitators in the small bird or parrots, however, IRN’s are more popular of a pet due to their cuteness. Hamlet is a good talker for an IRN, as is Tamara’s chicken, with Bloob being very social & talkative as well. I’ve known Greys that have never spoke a word, where B&G’s don’t stop talking. It all depends on the individual parrot or birdie & the environment they are subjected to. They do have voice boxes that can go into the largest of birds cages to assist in helping them repeat a phrase & can be changed when they learn it. A television or radio played during the time that humans aren’t around also can help stimulate a bird beginning to speak & continuing to speak.

[@rookbirdblues]

I read once that in the wild, parrots have been shown enjoying showing off and teaching each other new noises they’ve heard or made up. So amazing to see Gizmo and Bloob being able to experience that natural behaviour in captivity ❤

[@gizmothegreybird]

Yes, and Gizmo has already learned to say tickle tickle just like Bloob! It is fascinating 🥰

[@johnknoefler]

For me this is bizarre. I had no idea how this happened.

[@ritarisby7072]

Could wa5cy Giz all day

[@RainCheck797]

Yes language actually comes fairly natural to most parrots. In the wild the even assign specific calls to specific members of the flock like names, and have a variety of calls with different meanings. My parrot doesn't talk often, but after years of learning her sounds and body language, I can usually pretty easily decipher what she want or is trying to communicate. She probably understands me better than I understand her though. It's almost creepy lol.

[@_nez]

There is a spiece on this planet that is way more advanced in those things than parrots

[@kristineteall368]

The other day I ran across a video where they did a study during quarantine which wanted to see if given a tablet, their own FaceTime app and a choice, would birds choose to talk to other birds. They found they would choose to talk to the same birds over and over, forming relationships, and though the study has ended they’re still calling one another today. I also thought it was very sweet Giz told Bloop “I love you”. For having all of those homes, he’s amazingly healthy, both physically and mentally!

[@gizmothegreybird]

Yes, that was a fantastic study!! Gizmo and Bloob love chatting it up together. We are so happy they seem to get on.
