I know not everyone's Parrotlet talks, but most of them will imitate sounds.

My husband was sharpening a knife this morning and all of a sudden the sound was in stereo! Cricket was imitating it to a "T" .... :lol:

What sounds do any of your's imitate? :)

The only noise that Spike imitates is Froggie, our conure!

He's really starting to talk a lot. You can tell when he imitates Andy because his little voice changes. The words I teach him are higher and squeaky! :lol: :lol:

Gail, does Cricket talk any time of the day? Sometimes Spike is talking in the morning before I under cover him and he chatters on and off all day and evening. The reason I ask is because Pesto only talks in the afternoon/evening when getting ready to sleep. :)

Laura I have found no rhyme or reason for Cricket talking...Sometimes I can get him started by talking to him and sometimes he just looks at me like I'm nuts! :lol: :lol:

I get that look almost every time I talk to Custard and Belinda. Especially if I interrupt one of their shouting contests. drats I sing to them during our one on one time though, and Belinda usually looks like she's paying attention. In general she's more vocal than Custard too, so I think she's actually more likely to talk at some point.
