The Smartest Parrot you will ever see 🤩

[@WarmFuzzyVibes]

Just remember, don't just love Apollo for learning words. Love him because he is himself.

[@imabusiness1716]

well said

My heart just melted

[@crismcdonough2804]

I knew a man who had an AGP for 20+ years. When the man got married in his 40s after a long bachelorhood...just him and the bird...the parrot kept telling the new wife to go home. 😂

He is beautiful and smart, please love his spirit too as well as his wonderful mind ❤

Apollo cracks me up! "Michael....he he!!!" 😂

[@Plasmastorm73_n5evv]

Right? I lost it when he did that.

[@walterbriggs272]

Years ago I knew a grey African parrot who did have conversations but also cursed, called the dog, whistles Beethoven, talked badly about the cat, and you would think you were speaking with a human if didn’t know better

[@Rusty23602]

Seems more entertaining than blue, glass, metal, etc.

[@hewasagudboy9079]

Me and my best friend were thrown under the bus for smoking weed by an African grey when it started asking everyone and their if they "Wanna get high?"

[@sagesufferswell]

Apollo, Cosmo, Gizmo and Einstein are all incredibly smart, so much that it's kinda creepy. Gizmo's full sentences and contextual questions and responses blow me away. Apollo calling things Shrock for the reactions is ihilarious. Be sure to check out all the Greys

[@piggylover4808]

Apollo just absorbs all that his owner gives him - kudos to the time and effort - you both are so impressive!!! Both cuties as well ; )

[@CoolestCreatures]

what a smart cutie!

[@prissilou]

African grays are probably the best talkers and most intelligent of all the parrots. Years ago saw a woman on TV that had worked with one and he could tell all the colors, etc. Amazing birds!

[@lilithiaabendstern6303]

there's also Giz, another African Grey, who holds "conversation" with his owners, his favourite song is "who led the birds out"

[@LaLadybug2011]

Brilliant bird AND amazing owner. I could watch the two of them all day.❤️

[@donitaforrest9064]

All these African Gray Parrots sound like Dustin Hoffman in 'Rainman' to me. Maybe play the movie for him and he'll pick up some of the lines. That would be really funny....definitely...it definitely would....definitely.

[@parakeetsparrotsbirds9291]

I definitely see what you did there

Me too!

[@Yosetime]

We can't forget that the word 'parrot' means 'to mimic'. This makes them very fun to train, but also, unfortunately or not, they mimic our everyday lives. Listening in and watching us as any pet would. Except these pets can talk!! It must be very interesting for owners to make sure they aren't accidentally teaching their birds to talk about things they don't want other people to hear! lol So very much like raising a toddler!

[@herbward5240]

African Grey’s are a blast. This one should have his own speech to text cell phone !

[@wizoz5677]

I wish you would let us see you both just having some fun in each others company!

[@jakestilgard4145]

He's like, "These hoomon questions are too easy."

"help! they turned me into a bird!!!" would be hilarious

What is this? “Shrock” “No” “Wario” 🤣

[@cher4705]

Please remove the very loud background music. It makes it difficult to hear exactly what Apollo is saying.

[@JudithRandall-vz1zk]

Gizmo's a lot smarter and carries on conversations with his owner.

[@greystarling]

Apollo is only a few years old and still learning, no need to compare birds.

[@brenmanock]

Good bird and trainer

Such a smart bird!

I love you, is the most important, I tell it to my dog 100x plus a day, but sadly he can not say it back just show it. So I would love to see Apollo say that!! ❤❤🙏🙏

[@markevans2280]

They can use words in context, mine says “cup of tea” when I walk in room with one, also says “daddy have his dinner” when he sees me eating food

[@lindaburger2695]

I Love apollo but Gizmo can carry on a conversation with his owner.

[@user-ec7sf7qe8s]

And then there is Tico he sings .

[@ResinEssenceByCheri]

I’m sorry but parrots are typically smarter than toddlers. They are often compared to 4 and 5 year olds not 2 year olds.

Apollo is such a smart bird!

[@cu4wur6023]

When I was a teenager my parents had a green Amazon parrot and one of the things he was taught to say was ‘shut the door!’ Apparently I never closed the door behind me. George made sure I never forgot again! This parrot is marvellous and his owner clearly puts in the time with him 👏🏻🦜🇬🇧

[@KenLieck]

Notice that unlike stupid animals, Apollo doesn't require a food reward for giving correct answers. Birds are delighted just to be with you having fun, as long as you put in the time and effort to keep them happy.

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

Apollo gets treats for doing the right thing all the time, Pistachios… 3 answers, 1 pistachio!

[@cumunist2120]

I’ve seen that guy smack glass and say glass without any human interaction

[@StetchnikU]

As someone says above, Apollo is awarded for 3-4 correct answers. Nothing wrong with that.

[@Brohan97]

Yeah! Screw those "stupid animals!" /s

[@palomacampos2219]

Animals are not stupid however they act and mimic stupid people or stupid owners

[@kwren-od3si]

Dr. Irene Pepperberg worked with a grey named Alex for decades whose accomplishments were incredible. Not just labels, but categories such as same, different, counting (including discovering himself the concept of zero). Two books, a ton of scientific papers and news articles, lots of videos. Worth reading if you are interested in avian intelligence. I understand this guy uses some of the same training techniques.

[@stephaniegonsalves2263]

APOLLO, MY MAIN PARROT!!! Your now an INTERNATIONAL PARROT OF MYSTERY! Congratulations, buddy! Just don't forget us folks here your home country that have had your back from the beginning! Kudos to D and T for being the awsome bird parental units they are!!!😊

So I dropped by his house to meet the bird, and I asked it, "Polly want a cracker?" The bird looked at me for a moment, then said, "We do not tolerate such derogitory language in this household."

[@heidihalmer4700]

Unser Grey Parrot genannt Jacky, lebte ganze 42 Jahre mit uns. Er war zwei Jahre alt als wir ihn bekamen. Leider verlor er überraschend sein Leben durch einen sehr unglücklichen Umstand. Seit 3 Wochen hatten wir einen neuen Hund vom Tierheim zu Hause, der ihn immer total akzeptierte und sehr nett und rücksichtsvoll die ganze Zeit zu ihm war. Auch allein mit ihm war und ijn nir angriff. An eonem Tag reinigte ich den Boden unter seinem Käfig und da kam er gerne auch dazu und wollte sich mit dem Besen spielen, was ich nicht erlaubte, weil dieser ja schmutzig war und so gab er beim spielen ganz eigenartige, andere Laute als üblich von sich, die der Hund so nicht kannte, er missverstand diese offensichtlich lt. Aussage des Tierarztes, glaubte, dass er mich bedrängte und schoss blitzschnell durchs ganze Wohnzimmer um mir zur Seite zu dtehn und riss Jacky und die obere Schnabelhälfte ab. Wir waren tot unglücklich, weil wir nicht wussten, ob dies nun sein Ende war und brachten ihn zu einem speziellen Tierarzt, aber nach einer Woche mussten wir leider feststellen, dass auch er ihm nicht helfen konnte. Es war eine sehr, sehr traurige Zeit für uns. Er war sehr gelehrig, hatte schnelles Auffassungsver-mögen und pfiff die schönsten Opernarien. Er begrüßte jeden Gast, der kam, fragte nach dem Essen ob es uns auch schmeckt, trällerte u d quatschte den ganzen Tag Er war äußerst liebenswert, intelligent und fröhlich - wir trauern noch heute sehr um diesen lieben hochintelligenten Papagei Heidi Halmer Wien

Could he stop talking if you told him to be quiet or would he just keep going all day and through the night? And do you say everything around him and he goes off and tell all those things you said around him to others?

There is this lady who owned an African Gray...His name was N'Kizi...he could handle 250 words...Not that is a smart bir😂. As I know of some people who lack or don't like to even speak 50words as it just too tiring in doing so...😊😅😂.

children have infinite potential there is no way they can be compared to a parrot , although the education system does try to turn them into parrots

[@Magicalfluidprocess]

@@childofcascadia I don’t agree, intelligence is not a noun , it doesn’t come in a bag , it’s more like a fluid application of relevant conduct , can a parrot hold a pencil ? Build rudimentary objects with Lego for example ? Catch a ball ? Express difference states of being , In truth you have no way of knowing if a parrot is as intelligent as a child so get off your perch , at best it is just rhetorical. Good day to you

Don’t be a dolt. If you don’t teach a parrot specific words, they will teach themselves whatever words pique their interest. They parrot the sounds they hear whether they are taught to or not. And what exactly is “being a parrot”? Look up the verb parrot lol.
