When I was a child we had a budgie who as a really good talker and we taught him to say "happiness is egg shaped" lol. I would love to have a parrot but my better half is allergic to feathers.

Aww! At the moment our parrotlett hasn't got many feathers, keeps pulling them out! Bless him!

Shame its fake. The sound is acualy an electronically modified adult male human voice in addition the birds beak is closed some of the times its supost to be singing.
