Have you ever heard that saying...it came to me today... as I was preparing HARLEY'S
breakfast of fresh grapes, bananas, apples, corn, celery, red peppers, brocolli and peas. It goes something like this... "SHE'S SO SKINNY BECAUSE SHE EATS LIKE A BIRD."
This came to mind as he was enjoying his breakfast while I prepared my fattening breakfast of toast,egg, bacon and diet coke. HARLEY is now 14 months old and according to the training books on AFRICAN GREY PARROTS, he (who is really a she)should start talking in about 4 months. However, HARLEY already knows several phrases... like ... "PET MY HEAD"... "HELLO HARLEY BIRD"... "STEP UP"... meows when you ask him "what does the kitty say"... He says 'WHO ...WHO.." when you say...
"without your wig you look like an owl" (from the Adam Sandler movie..8crazy nights)
He says HELLO when the phone rings (including cell phone)...and his favorite is
"BIPPY BOO...BIPPY BOO"... He is so much fun. He love for me to give him kisses and pet his head...He bites everyone but me...Thanks to LuLu for helping get HARLEY...

Aww, he (she) is so fun! Makes me almost want one for about 1/2 of a second, then I come to my senses :D
So cute!!!
I am glad this one likes you :)
I am with you. I don't eat that healthy either. It takes way too much effort. Toast and some juice is about all we have time for. I love Harley. You always luck out and pick the best pets.
I can't believe how much Harley has picked up already. I love it when he gets going and can't stop talking. I could do without the Wilbur scream though.
I'm glad I could help you get that sweet little bird. Although I don't enjoy holding him...I know you do. He/she is so smart and I can't wait to hear all that he learns with that full house you manage to live in.
