Nice looking birds you have there. I especially like the one of your budgies... they're almost forming a heart :heart: shape.

 

[94lt1]

Thank you. Avra the green yellow, and Hendrick, the blue, are awesome birds.. they were hard to get calmed down at first, but some time was all it took. They're 5.5 yrs old now... I'm preparing for the inevitable.. sadly.

Some beautiful birds you have there.

 

[94lt1]

Thanks for sharing photos of your beautiful flock. I'll bet your home is very cheery with all these lovey looking birds.

 

[94lt1]

Welcome to the forum

You have a beautiful flock.. I love your Zon

Thanx.. her name is Seminole... she's quite the talker, sadly though, her previous owner was a potty mouth...so her vocab is..... shall we say... less than desirable in some cases.

But she talks in complete sentences :banghead: but those sentences aren't the ones we want to hear

Oh No!! Hopefully as time goes on, she will forget all the bad words and pick up on all the things you are saying

I love her name

My Zon Codie is a getting to be a real little chatterbox now.. She tends to put all her sentences together and says them all in one go LOL

 

[94lt1]

I hope you're right it doesn't sound right when you have company over, then a bird yells out "I'm gonna kill those expletive birds"! Seriously... its that bad

Its embarrassing to say the least

 

[wenz2712]

Try repeating all different sentences to her, over and over again and once she finds one that she really likes to say, hopefully she will forget about the bad ones

Its a shame when people teach their birds to say bad things! I can see where you are coming from though and how you feel embarrassed by it, when you have visitors, but I am sure they probably know that it was not you that taught her these things

 

[94lt1]

Oh they know.. because they know who her former owner is... for now we've replace the saying with "here kitty kitty kitty cat" and wolf howling...

I don't like the idea of her calling for a cat(we don't own any, but still) just the idea of a neighbors cat...but we watch them closely
Idk why the swear filter picked that up as profanity?
