What are your favorite talking parrots?
Budgies. The only down side is they aren't long lived but I love the little f@#$$ers.
Are cape parrots good beginner birds? I’ve heard they can make good talkers
African greys. Not as pets but I admire their advance talking ability
@@loractmay4240 too skiddish for me. I want to be able to cuddle my bird
@@t.purkess9682 if you=e never had a bird before, I wold not recommend getting a cape parrot. Maybe do a mildly experienced person
I do appreciate your videos. However, one thing I do have a concern about is getting a bird because it "talks." I think there are plenty of other reasons that will make a longer lasting relationship with a parrot than talking ability. I think personality will always out last other qualities people often get parrots for(beautiful, mimicry and so on.)
Well this lost is for people who’s main checkbox is taking ability
@@paleoguy2165 Talking ability is literally the last thing a responsible bird owner should be concerned about. Even if you get a bird known for talking, like an African grey or a Quaker, there is no guarantee that it will talk. Talking ability says nothing about the bird’s temperament or care. My Quaker was a rescue that was originally purchased for the species’ talking ability, but when he didn’t talk the family started to ignore him, when he screamed for attention, they put him in the basement, when he plucked his feathers they decided to do the best thing they ever did for him which was rehome him. That bird suffered because of the expectation that he would talk. Oddly enough, within 2 months of me having him he did start to say a couple things. Even when you can get a bird to talk, you can’t guarantee what they will say. The two things my Quaker picked up on are “Bobo” after my friend once called him Bobo the clown, and “get out” after I once told my dog to get out of the room. Why he mimics those two things that were literally only said in front of him once and not things that I say to him everyday is beyond me.
Lets me real most people want a parrot that talks and that their main priority their not interested in the tricks and training like me i want a parrot that talks so i will be looking into species that have good talking ability im not really bothered about tricks or training .
The larger lories are very articulate talkers with a sense of humor. I get the impression they are also one of the most intelligent talkers. Capable of understanding speech more.
I had a Sun Conure who didn’t speak for 23 years. He was a treasure and oh my I loved him so much! He never ever bit me…never ever! But he would scream like nothing else!
Good to see you again! Thanks for the video. 🙂
Oh my goodness, I love your Bronze-winged Pionus! 😍 So cute how he kept going behind your neck & peaking out. 😁
Glad to see you back man!! Always enjoy watching your vids!
Glad to be back!
your channel deserves more love. keep it up man!
Yay!! You’re back!
It’s always a good day when another fives a flock with coro vid drops!
Long time no see lol. Your videos are always high quality!
You are back, finally! Nice....😁
So good to see you again man. I never comment buy you are without a doubt my favorite up and coming youtuber. You are a natural man keep ot up my family and I look forward to watching your journey.
I appreciate that! Thanks a ton!
You’re back! I’ve missed your videos!
Glad to be back! Thanks for the warm welcome back
In the morning when I put on my nurse outfit before I go to work, my caique parrot says: (translated) See you soon, see you soon! And then I go to work. They're not the best talkers but that warms my heart every morning.
Welcome back!!! Glad to see you
Happy to be back!
Good to see you again! And great video. When are you gonna do next bird review? :)
Not sure. Things are a bit dry as bird stores don't have much stock until breeding season, and with me moving to a new state, I'm going to have to find a new store to work with. But one way or another, I'll get more reviews going.
Finally a new video!!!!
Finally. Going to keep things going from now on best I can
it's nice to see you again, I know you did a scarlet macaw already but can you do a blue and gold or hyacinth one next plz!
Thanks for your honesty when reviewing parrots in all of your videos. I'm one of those people that would like a small bird but one that can talk and be somewhat understood by the average person. Of course, being new to birds I want a bird that is not very "nippy", I don't want to have a fear of getting bit hard. I understand that there is a probability of getting bit but I'd like the odds to be good for not losing a finger, lol. What I would like most of all is a bird that is personable and likes to "just hang out" with its human and be relatively small. Talking would be a bonus but it isn't a deal breaker. I have tons of time but I don't want a bird that is very difficult to train or that bites hard or often. The more videos I watch, the more I'm not sure. I was thinking about a Linnie or a Parrotlet but they both also seem to not really talk much more than a budgie.?.? Any suggestions or advice? Please don't be afraid to have a clear favorite. Thanks for al your videos, great stuff that is very informative and entertaining. 👍
Did I watch the video? Not yet.
Did I press the like button already? Yes.
Welcome back? Welcome back.
P.S.: Add kakariki to this list! They too sound like dog toys, but they talk, and they are very friendly. My kak says "Come here", "How are you doing?", "No", "Hm?", "Yup" and "Meow" (I have no cat and no clue of how she got that). She also mimics the wild parrots we have in the neighborhood hahaha
Super glad to be back and thanks for the like 😊
Thank you for this very informative video!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video thank you
I appreciate your non-judgmental educational videos.
Hey for your series on the best pet parrots could you do linies, Barred Parakeet or lovebirds? Love your videos
Finally a new video😵
Glad to see you back! I don't want to overstep, but if you're struggling with video ideas outside of bird reviews (since it's not breeding season and the bird shortage and all that) maybe you could do some parrot care videos? Like "Parrot products that are actually dangerous" or "Cage essentials" or bird proofing tips. Or maybe general bird content like "Birds you didn't know could talk" (corvids, starlings, etc.) if you'd be interested in the occasional non-parrot video. Again, I'm really sorry if I'm overstepping.
Those are great ideas! I have some in the works just the issue is I want to show a nice set up for video, but I'm in the middle of moving so things aren't super pretty. But I guess maybe I can just use pictures instead maybe. If you want videos like that, I'll just make do with what I can if that's cool. Let me know!
@@Fivesaflock Oh no, please take your time! I'd hate to rush you. I imagine moving isn't very easy, it wouldn't be fair to expect you to do the extra work of researching, filming and editing on top of all that.
Yes, I'd like to bird proof my house, choose the best room for his cage, and start accumulating toys for him.
Budgies actually know more words than any other bird species, even more than African grays! 😮 the one who knows the most was named Puck. Then the next living bird who knows the most words is another budgie!
My budgie wasn’t as good as Puck at talking but he had vocabulary of 600+ words
It should be noted that while Quakers are amazing birds they're actually illegal to keep in some states. It's unfortunate.
can you do a review on Quaker parrot PLEASE?
Hi. Welcome back. I miss you.
Glad to be back!

@@edyedith I have a Regent parrot (they're similar to princesss) both great birds! Beautiful and personality:)
Male Budgies are capable of hundreds of words and phrases.
Not every bird will talk even if they are known for talking.
Please DON'T just get a bird because you want them to talk, you really need to like the species for all their other qualities too.!
Birds that are known to talk, if the bird you choose from that 'talking species', DOESN'T talk it can lead to neglect because the only reason you choose that bird was because it could talk and that is unfair on the bird.
Completely agree 100%. Talking is a bonus, not the selling point.
U have to realise most people buy parrot because they want a bird that talks and that fine its their preference and just cuz a parrot does not talk does not mean they will neglect it they can just sell it buy new 1
@@JawadKhan-dn8ip yes I agree not everyone will neglect a non talking bird but you shouldn't get a pet JUST because it could talk. Talking in my opinion should be seen as a fun extra not a main thing. Also rehoming birds can be really traumatic for them because they form very strong bonds. When you buy an animal you are committed to them, rehoming them and buying a new one just because it doesn't do what you want is genuinely discussing.
@@Beepbebeboop well why not some people really want a talking bird and that their preference also their nothing wrong with rehoming bird if u dont want them anymore it does not matter about how strong the bird bond is what important its its saftey and care
@@JawadKhan-dn8ip yes but the fact people are rehoming their birds because they don't talk is discussing and shouldn't be normalised. There is a difference between rehoming your animal because you cannot provide adequate care and rehoming it because it didn't do what you wanted, it's a very self centred mentally. It's fine for people to want a talking bird but if it's to the point where they would just keep buying and rehoming birds until one talks, they shouldn't be owning birds.
I have a Quaker Parrot in MA so it's legal. She talks and is very cuddly
I originally wanted to get a quaker parrot before I got my cockatiel, but I didn’t get a quicker parrot, mainly because they’re illegal to own in my state, and in a few other states too
I love your videos. Please come back!
How would you classify Lorikeets? Rainbow especially
Can you do and eclectus rate video and maybe touch on the differences of the males and females general temperments? ❤️💜💚💙
Kakariki's are the best❤ it's the best smallest bird ,social not dusty, very kind and easy to handle ,allot of color variations. They should be on top of the list.
some budgies are insanely talanted in talking - knew few that memorised a bunch of phrases and one was so good at mimicking voice it sounded like it was a jako or something lol. but it is a random occasion mostly, some wont talk at all
Kindly make a review video on Quaker parrot please. As would like to know what kindly of parrot is it. And why it not as popular like conure...??
Thanks for the video. I had a couple of baggies in my childhood, their ability to talk is quite decent. The 3rd one could produce approximately 80-90 words /phrases. But yea, the quality of their voice is mediocre.
Still, they are one of my favourite birds.
Thanks for these reviews!
Could you do a video about a quaker
Hello,
i love your videos, but i was wondering if you could do one about KAKARIKIS. I heard they are also good parrots for beginners.
Thank you so much.
Keep up with the god work
Hi, I would love a video about kakarikis too. I have done my research about them (honestly quite difficult to do) and I would be happy to share some information about them to you :)
They aren't as easy as some people say.
Heery five’s a flock…
Plz talk bout severa macaw
I’ve been waiting for it
Have you done a budgie video?
Does this have to be a Parrot only channel? Can review all birds
Welcome back! Tbh, if you want a talking bird, get an African Grey. They're by far the best all around parrot especially if you want a talker.
Van you pleas do review on alexanderparakit🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I had no idea budgies could talk until I went to someone who had thems house and one got on my shoulder and in a very quiet voice just started repeating "excuse me, excuse me".
Can you make a video about the Hahns Macaw? It’s my dream to own one and I would love a video about them 🥰
Hello, I would also love a video on the Hahns. I am a new parent and would love to know more!!!
I have a budgie shes 6 months old shes so quiet but loves to talk. I also have a parrotlet shes nearly 6 shes non stop talking but not words haha.
Do you know any mideum sized parrot wich is Good for biggeners meaning that's it's not too loud, doesn't needs a lot of attention, doesn't have a bluffing phase and is avreg in talking ability.
When you going to do a quaker video
But can they be blue?
I'd rather recommend getting an African grey over a quaker , people really don't understand just how difficult they are and by personal experience I can say for sure my fingers are safer around a Grey even with its bigger beak
List of birds for busy owners
Welcome Back!
Excited to be back!
I have had a quaker, that I loved so much, since 1994. I just lost her, which has broken my heart. And I had just bought a brand new cage (18"x18"x57" with 3/4" bar spacing and a playpen top). I'll be moving to a state that doesn't allow Quakers, which really disappoints me. Now I find myself trying to find a bird that will fit the cage. Any recommendations? Thank you.
I should add, what I enjoyed so much was her talking, of course. She was quite the character.
Please review Quaker Parrot Please, very important request to you.
U forgot mynah birds they are not parrot but have the best mimicking skills even better than some parrot they are very common in bangladesh and pakistan and asian country
I'm thinking about advertising you to other bird channels because you deserve more views and subscriptions. Is that okay with you?
That would be great! I really appreciate your effort! Thanks!
@@Fivesaflock Your welcome.
can cockatiels talk?
Your info is wrong on conure. Only some green cheek conure talk but those are very few. Never heard of seen any other Conure talking
What about Quaker Parrots?!
Oh last one Lol. I have a blue one and he has a BIG personality. TONS of energy and a big attitude to boot!
Quaker/ Monk parrots are said to be very aggressive at arround age of 2 years. You have put them in Begginers list at 1 rank. Please do a little study and kindly make a video on it as would love to hear your views on them from a expert like you.
budgiaries??? haha budgerigars
Budgies are the BEST TALKERS OF ALL PARROTS. Googke it if u don't believe me.
They can talk but it's very low volume and it's like a fast mumble, most of them sound like gibberish.
