- We cooked some shrimp and made bird cupcakes for Apollo's fourth hatchday, and unlike last year, this time he wasn't scared.
Apollo is our Talking African Grey parrot, hatched April 2020, we've had him since December 2020.
Founder of Shrock and renowned GLASS connoisseur.

The awkward silence of all the birds looking at the cakes you spend so long cooking feels a lot like having unimpressed toddlers.
😂🤣
Loved that!😂
And when Dalton‘s hand slammed down on the middle cake, they didn’t even flinch😅
Every single birthday experience with my younger kid.
@@Gloriagal78 they did turn their heads in synch though 6:42
Apollo knows the truth. Shrimp is bugs.
Tza BUG!
A Sea Bug Tori, WHYY?! 😂❤
Oh man this one is deep.
Incorrect. Bugs is shrimp
It's a bug. 🦜
it’s interesting how ophelia and soleil are indifferent to the camera but apollo is obsessed with it lol. i wonder why. also can the girls say “peekaboo” now? yay
1:37 literally the most adorable thing ever 😭
he knows.
@@XboxTF2Tidbits what
@@themosaicshow he knows the camera is how the pistach is provided
Shiny
6:34 - 6:42 are the three most unimpressed faces I think I've ever seen. The fact they held it for that long just made it so much better. Apollo starting to scratch was the cherry on top lol!
Ikr? Comedy gold
@@niccvier I was dying laughing. They worked so hard making their little cakes, and the birds were like 'that's it?' :D
What was you cook in muffins. I have a Blu Quaker Parrot. I'm a newbie
@@Tupelo_Honey_77 They were bird safe ingredients made into little cakes.
It took me out 🤣
I feel like I have watched too much Apollo that TH-cam starts suggesting this at the top
You too?
Lol, same.
😍😍😍
Same
No such thing.
can't believe i share a birthday with this legend
Happy birdday to you too!!🎉🎉🎉
Happy hatch day!
Happy birthday to both of you
Want a pistach?
Happy Hatch Day!! 🎂 🥳 🎉 Throw Bottle!!
Insects evolved from crustaceans so Apollo really knows what's up! Shrimp IS bug. Happy birdday to the bird!
TIL insects evolved from crustaceans! Cool!
So wouldn’t bug be shrimp?
the fact "touch purple" and "shrock" are secret cake recipes has busted my side open.
Yeeesss!! ❤😂
The cake behind the slaughter
6:36 That's a beautiful shot.
If it were a painting, I would call it: "Of birds and cakes"
✨Birds of a cake✨
"Wanna earn a pisnack" might be my new favorite
He created a new word.
Greys do that all the time, can confirm! @@monicaclark9581
He said that?! Wow Apollo.❤
Greys combine words to make new ones all the time lol!@@WhistleblowingGoodWitch
@@lauraallen55 I noticed that with Coz and Giz! ❤️
“Happy Birthday Apollo” 🍰🦜
Apollo: “Paper!”
✨excited landing on camera noises✨
6:52 Wait! Why was this so funny to me!
birdday😊🦜
The Ophelia grab was something 😂😂😂
Hes so smart now, hes getting questions answered correctly and quickly much more than in older videos.
Apollo never ceases to leave me stunned by his sheer level of ability to interact with people using language.
Fun fact his species of parrot is considered the smartest out there!
@@Mayayapayapa Which is why I chose a Congo African Grey for my bird as well. Though mine's not nearly as smart.
@@basspig lol that can be because of their personality or gender too! Female birds in general are quieter, only picking up at max 4 letter words. Age influences that too, but overall your parrot probably understands a lot of what you say
@@Mayayapayapa dang, I should have held out for a male parrot. Originally the parrot place was going to give me a male, but the two birds they had one was female and another couple had claimed the male first. Oh well.
@@basspig sometimes it's hard to see the bird's sex without a blood exam, they probably guessed it or confused your parrot with another one. If your parrot is not older than 5 years i think you can still teach them though, just with a lot of persistence
I like how bird(s) has become his new favorite word after four
Also, you need to start putting some of those anti-pigeon strips on top of the camera lol.
@@Shevlander He'd probably break them off. ^ ^
Wait till he finds out about golf
3:50 the way he so cautiously approaches it. "Is it going to blow up if I *touch!*?"
I’m very impressed that when you were pouring water from across the kitchen, he noticed and said “Pour water.” He’s very smart and aware!
I also noticed that you use the organic Vital eggs! They’re the best!🐓
Apollo knows Shrimps is Bugs!!!!
well, it probably tastes like bugs so that’s why he said it’s a bug
Shrimps is Bugs!
@@sonia625 shrimp are water bugs🤗
"Alright Apollo", hyping himself up to land on the camera. Lovely.
Happy birthday, Apollo!
The fact that he answered so many questions correctly in a row just confirms to me he's messing with you when he answers incorrectly. Hell, he didn't even touch the toilet paper to know it was paper lol
Happy hatch day Apollo!
His obsession with "four" continues to crack me up. He is so smart and can definitely learn the ofher numbers but i guess this is his favorite. My Jack also almost exclusively says "four". If we are lucky he will grace us with a single "two"!
Love how he narrates "drop" as he drops cake over the edge! Happy 4th year to the birthday bird!
7:24: "happy birthday to the GROUND!!!!"
Lol!!! Apollo threw it on the ground!! He's "the boss!"
He's an adult!
I LOVE THIS REFERENCE
happy belated birdday apollo !! got quite a few laughs out of this one
He sounded so excited to answer "BALL" what a sweet little boy 😭
I love how he says “ball!” at 0:57
He sounds so happy. 😊
Just like when he says “metal”😊
"ball!😊"
Happy FOURth birthday to Apollo!
He's still afraid of pinecones, but nice job treating his fear of certain kinds of cake.
He has become so smart now.. i for one welcome Apollo and frens as our new overlords 🤣
You guys are such good parents. Many kids don’t even get treated this well on their birthdays.
He looks excited for his birthday. Happy birthday little man!🎉
"Tori?"
"Yes Apollo?"
"Shrock?"
For anyone wondering, the time stamp for this momment is 4:50
@@Annetteimations thanks!
@@Annetteimationsmoment**
I love the "YAY!" Children sound clip its joyous every time It gets used to celebrate.
Also... HAPPY BIRTHDAY APOLLO!
Holy shit, was not expect a "these shrimp fresh?"
THEY JUST ARRIVE
he is incredibly intelligent omg, its so insane to think how far he has come. he can say a word in asking if he gets it wrong that is so cool
Happy Bird-day Apollo!
I love how he shrinks away from the hat, so cute.
His pour water was on point, hes so fast at answering everything now !
I like your birds a lot. Happy birthday, Apollo
It's a miracle you can get anything done with those adorable mischief makers
Apollo is so cute🩶
He deserves all the love for his b'day❣️
So attentive and fun at the same time.
What a smart, adorable little grey person and his caique buddies!!!
Happy Birthday Apollo! ❤ I love how the girls are always the first ones to be willing to try the new stuff and the footage at the end was so funny 😄
He's commenting on his environment without prompting! That's amazing!
I've seen vids of him chattering on his own and it always seemed more about the sounds than the meaning. And of course he answers all sorts of questions.
But this is the first time I've seen Apollo unprompted make comments. "Pour water", "Bug" (for the shrimp) and "Drop" when he dropped the shrimp.
I've been wondering if that would happen and really delightful to see it myself.
I think the trick is a hidden camera to watch the main camera so Apollo can still be on camera while he's on camera.
Yes! ❤😂
I love when Apollo says "alright Apollo" because I believe he is reminding you that you agreed to giving him a pistach and to hurry it up! 😂
Apollo makes a great star, but his passion is obviously in directing and producing behind the camera.💙
Lesson learned: several smaller cakes are less scary than single big cakes are.
Tori I love your curls. And you all are such a cute family! Happy bday (: looking forward to more years to come
0:43-0:45 was timed, perfectly...
The (**Ding!**) followed by "Glass..." was epic.
🥳🎂🎉🎈Happy Birbday , Apollo !
Happy birthday, Apollo. You are amazing ❤
Happy Birbday Apollo!🎉 I can't believe he's 4 already! may your days be filled with as much pistach as you desire, lil buddy! 🎂🦜❤
3:23 !!! using the lovebirds and putting a pistache inside it to make him less fearful!!! Brilliant!!! Happy birthday silly bird 🐓 ❤
Happy Birthday Apollo. They forgot to sing!!!! I’ll sing for you, but you won’t hear it. They did their best Apollo. That was an expensive Bug! You liked it too.
Happy Birthday, Apollo.
i think the next step should teach apollo yes and no, and then integrate questions like "is it a rock" this could teach his rudimentary grammar in language, and can solidify word associations with objects
Thats a good idea
Yeah, that’s a great next step
you’re right!
I love Apollo and friends. ❤HAPPY BIRTHDAY APOLLO! Your mom and dad love you very much and you are so smart. 🎉. Thanks for all the great laughs.
Happy Birdday, Apollo. Magnificent cakes!! 🧁👏🏻 🎉
omg happy birthday Apollo, you're the best DANG BIRD on the internet
What a throwback, with that "Will it blend" reference!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY big intelligent funny birb! 🎉😆😘💕 THANK YOU for all the entertainment and have a wonderful B-Day!! 😁🎂🎈🎁 May you have many more to come with lots of love, good health & happiness!! 🎁💖✨😁 Xx
Why are your thumbnails always so *cute* though? ❤️ It really feels like the last cake video was just a couple months ago. Happy birdday, Apollo!
I could not live in that house 🤣 Happy Bird-Day Apollo, Thanks for all the laughs
4:50
That cracked me up. It seemed like he was trying to do a "knock knock" joke, that is so funny
Happy belated birthday Apollo. You deserve a lot of treats. You are so sweet and clever. I love you and your sisters.
Happy Birdday Apollo! Great editing on this video- so much fun to watch!
Omg we hatched on the same day! Happy hatch day, Apollo!
I just love the chaos. Happy fourth birthday, Apollo!
happy bird-day apollo!
to many more!
Who needs Netflix or hollywood.
This is quality Television. ❤
🙏
Apollo is spot on today with the answers! I didn't know parrots liked eating cooked shrimp. I thought the shrimp was for Tory and Dalton. 🤗
My Grey likes shrimp quite a bit, but his favorite is salmon!
1:00 the little bird hop is so cute!
8:00 If the bird said "drop" right after you said throw and missed, then that's the most hilarious thing I've seen in a minute 😂😂
Happy birthday from Germany, you lovable chaotic little talker :)
That ding on the glass was 🤌🏻 supurrrrb
Love the birds. They are so cute and smart. I wish I have one like them ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍👍👍👍
Happy Belated Birbday Apollo! 🥳 Glad to see you had so much fun and yummy food 😊 Can’t believe you’re 4 already! And you get smarter every day! I’m glad you have such a sweet loving family 😊 You’re a special little guy and I hope you have many more years with 4 in them! Lol
God bless! ❤
🎉 Happy Birthday to You Apollo and Many More!!! God Bless and Love You All ❤❤❤!!!
Happy hatchday Apollo!!!
happy birbday Apollo! I feel like time passed so fast; I remember his last birthday like it was yesterday
Happy birthday Apollo I'm so glad you're living in a house full of love🎉❤❤❤
Happy birthday 🎂 Apollo
Wow what a very smart brilliant bird you are! I am extremely impressed.❤
Bird is the word.
You guys make my day just by posting
My gosh Apollo is so smart! Fun video guys.
Happy birthday, baby!!!! 🥳
happy bday apollo & sisters !!! national treasures
I love how Tori is always getting im te camera, and when he finally gets up but she's busy he actually call's her name like "hey, look where I'm at haha"
Happy birthday!
Good to see them eat the cakes instead of acting like it's something scary
I love how much Apollo loves the camera lol
New Apollo video just dropped! *Deafening cheers and applause* 👏🎉
(Also Happy Birthday Apollo! ✨🎉✨)
I like that Apollo kept flying onto the camera.
8:16 Apollo staring directly into my soul....
Happy Birthday Apollo!!!!🎉🎉🎉
perfect birthday gift for me, always happy to see apollo!
happy birthday apollo!!
hey dalton and tori you and my freind inspired me to get an congo african grey talking parrot of my own thank you for being the best
He keeps jumping on us! It jump scares me every time 😂
I love how apollo partially understands human vocal tones. Like when hes asking a question he’ll just say one word and raise the pitch at the end. Really amazing
6:51 I relate to Ophelia so much right here
