[Taternator2101]

Holy shot at 1:06 that parrot gave me the finger OMG

[LeezaStayFresh543]

wow how did you teach him ?? i just got a poclet parrot and its a baby so i want it to learn to talk well too

[Caviezel7]

Look at you! You're all wet! LOL

Einstein makes my day!

[wilmarth45]

Does he really enjoy reciting words? He seems to actively enjoy the wide vocabulary. I bet it is good stimulation for them to have to memorize and associate words. Grey Parrots are certainly of the smartest animals on the planet.

[MarvinsKitchen]

great

[missassypants87219]

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[Jaxkr1]

This Einstein can annunciate a LOT better than the famous one.

[12coudak000]

so sweeeet ^_^

love this parrot

[agaKOLBASKA]

О Господи! Когда он(а) сделал(а) шаг вперёд, мне показалось, что меня сейчас сожрут! О_о

[bhambum]

Does Einstein live in a cage ? Its really sad if he does live in a cage

[4zebird]

@bhambum She is only in her cage when she sleeps and we leave the house. I work from home, so she is out of her cage and on a play stand about 65% of the time.

[bhambum]

@4zebird , Aww .. Thats good news .

[wilmarth45]

@bhambum What do you want him to do roam the house? Poop all over everything? Not many people like that. So a cage is not a bad thing as long as you take them out to play.

[emma9sachi]

My Emma found this particular video to be quite interesting! Thanks for sharing:)

[scotthsu98052]

Wait is Einstein a girl or boy

[4zebird]

@scotthsu98052 A girl, we think. She has never been DNA sexed, but pretty sure she is a she.

[xXMMDMaDhOuSeXx]

I have a question, do all these birds imitate in the same way, or does your voice and pitch effect the way they "speak?"

[4zebird]

@xXMMDMaDhOuSeXx Yes, they take on the voice, accent, and pitch of the owners voice.

[trippxfckface]

@4zebird This is the same Einstein on the tv show right?

[4zebird]

@trippxfckface No, it's a different parrot. Just the same name. Go to einsteinparrot(dot) com to learn more.

[stayAU]

I wonder when they realized that you could teach these birds to talk.

[TheGiacomopuccini]

Alittle bit scary, isn't it?

[AppleGnome]

My friends bird is so funny he says " my precious" just like the creature in Lord of the Rings

[FluffyFerret2000]

What a beautiful bird. I've always wanted one, but right now I have cute sun conure.

[horsehassan]

my new 1 year old african grey is really scared of me. he accepts treats from my hand but screams when i get to close to the cage. how can i gain his trust. plzzz try and answer. also did you have this problem with einstein??

[4zebird]

@horsehassan Learn all you can about Positive Reinforcement training. It works, but like training any wild animal it take a lot of time and a lot of patience. Search, "Good Bird Inc." for the methods I use. Their books and materials are Wonderful! Get started NOW! Einstein was started early on this training and didn't develop these bad habits. Good Luck!

[SpLiT0o0]

Look at you! You're all wet!

[milomilo55]

What an absolutely amazing vocabulary she has - it's obvious she has a lot of interaction with her humans. I really love how she links together appropriate words and/or sounds like "want a drink of water" followed by the sound of someone chugging water and "dogs" followed by barking. She's brilliant - good job.

[4zebird]

@milomilo55 Thanks! :>

[seleinathescorpio]

is it just me?, one of her toes looks like its bent back

[4zebird]

@seleinathescorpio Don't worry, her toes are normal. One of the things that distinguishes parrots from many other birds is their zygodactyl feet. It sounds really prehistoric, but it simply means two toes forward and two toes back, specifically the second and third toe point forward, and the first and the fourth point back. This configuration of toes allows for greater ability in grasping and manipulating objects like food and toys, climbing and perching.

[christennoel2015]

This bird is do smart and cute I love when it says let's fly WEEEE or when it poops and it says bombs away

[blaquemilque]

Let's go fly! Weeeeee!

[thedptvshow]

hahahaha!

that is the funniest thing i have ever seen! props to whoever spends time with that bird!

[MikeyDon1312]

i have an african grey that is around 10 months old. how long did it take ur grey to start talking?

[4zebird]

@MikeyDon1312 She was 17 months. Go to her website's FAQ page and read the story.

[arkily13]

Hi thank you for all your dedication to Einstein she is very special. Im actually getting a grey for Xmass and wanted to ask, has Einstein ever had its wings clipped? You have done a wonderful job with her.

[4zebird]

@arkily13 Yes, we do keep her wings clipped, but she is still able to be taken up with a strong wind. So we nwver take her outside unprotected. We always keep her in a travel cage when outside. People have different opinions about wing clipping, so read as much as you can and do what is best for you and your parrot.

[capwerohrer]

My bird has been watching this clip for about 3 years now, and it's her favorite clip to watch on youtube!

[ryarod]

So sweet. I can tell you really love this bird. I cannot begin to tell you how happy that makes me; I've seen many beautiful creatures, including birds, suffer from abuse and neglect.

But you share something special with Einstein, I can tell. God bless you both. :)

[Patty77Barboza]

Min7:09 .. the best LOOL

[ShakeyD100]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!! =D

[Sisiswimgirl]

AWWWWW

[BeAsTm0aD]

hahaha "sweet potaaaaayterrr"

[ThePlatypus1984]

The "SHAKE" is sooooooo nice, I had tears of laughing in my eyes! ^^

[ifrenchfry]

I wanna give him a kiss. He asked for it sooo much xD

[vlogDraven]

what does she say in 5:17 ??

[4zebird]

@vlogDraven "Stinker! Stinker"

[michael87807]

@vlogDraven he says stinker

[ShakeyD100]

@vlogDraven Sounds like Tigger

[victoriasjo21]

want some lunch?

parrot- want some rat??? its good!

lol

[HeadSkull123]

7:57 IS SHE CONSTAPATEd?

[CrazyBoyStudios]

"who let the dogs out, wh-wh-wh-who" lol XD

[Brady2120]

How old is this parrot? my language art teacher has one like yours.

[4zebird]

@Brady2120 She is 14. Hatchday - June 15,1997

[HagenSteele]

You can tell a lot about the caretaker of an African Grey by simply listening to what it learns to say.

This bird is obviously well tended.

[Gemfyre]

I love the water sound. And the accent for "Look at you! You're all wet!" :)

[shishisawboy]

Wat does p= I don't get it

[shishisawboy]

You need to teach her to go Barack ooobama

[doglovervt99]

60 people can't get their parrots to talk

[wethechocolat]

R.I.P EINSTEIN :(

[doglovervt99]

@wethechocolat he died? when?

[4zebird]

@doglovervt99 This Einstein is alive and well! She is on her perch next to me right now! I don't know how this rumor got started!

[maroon5lovers15]

@4zebird they're probably referring to the Einstein on Pet Star a while back. they might not have seen the information bar

[4zebird]

@wethechocolat This Einstein is alive and well! She is on her perch next to me right now! I don't know how this rumor got started!

[wethechocolat]

@4zebird i think 60 years?

[60sisthashit]

a person could become a grandparent, that's how long it can live...

[wethechocolat]

@wethechocolat someone said me :/

[bht277]

@wethechocolat I believe your thinking of 'Alex' another famous talking parrot who died a couple of years ago :)

[ThePhynix85]

Amazing.... one day, birds will rule the world.... if the cats aren't faster.

[MsRachaelVincent]

This parrot is just awsum!!!! :)

[Qwazier3]

Been working my butt off trying to teach my moms African Grey to talk. He'll make every animal noise I teach him but "get out " are the only words he says and I didn't teach him that. I'm going to try and get him to watch videos of Einstein. He'll either tell me to get out or he may just finally talk. My moms red macaw is only 2 years old and at least he's practicing. No clear words yet but he's trying.

[niamhdotie]

Can tell this is a very well loved parrot - never a cross word!!

[Lite619]

"who let the dogs out...who who who" xD

[metalchick091]

holy crap! i thought she fell into the shower at like 2:30 XD!!!! hahaha

[grandmaman2009]

Einstein is awesome. I gotta get this video into the other room so my Grey can watch him. Mine is 15 years old now and has a great vocabulary also. I think Einsteins vocabulary is larger - My parrot spends much time practicing using MY voice.

[Amandah86]

How did you teach her to shake :) ??

[4zebird]

@Amandah86 No, I think she taught us! :) If I remember, she shook her head one day and we imitated her! :)

[rabikinet]

shake :)

[Fujimiya12]

do you clip her wings?

[4zebird]

@Fujimiya12 Yes, we do.

[heartmaker50]

which one is this one i have one itss same like this please tell :)thanks

[4zebird]

@heartmaker50 It's a Congo African Grey Parrot

[heartmaker50]

@4zebird thanks :)

[kyphonii]

Lets go fly! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

LOLOLOLOLOL I love this bird!

[Drumlinegypsy247]

aw does she kiss alot haha :)

love her kiss noises (;

[MaggieDizzy360]

When Einstein, did her thing, my African Grey made a fart noise :P!

[ChosVideoBlog]

this bird is so f****** amazing XDDD

[MetallicDoom16]

did anyone else come from "heavy is einstein" where he divided by zero?

[Demonicii]

I was at my friends house once and she fed her parrot chicken. I thought she did it on accident first but she said "nope, she loves chicken!" I'm still not so sure xD;

[aslterp59]

My CAG sits on my shoulder and we watch lots of Einstein's videos in the evening. Gemma started saying, "You're all wet!!" after we watched Einstein's shower a few times. I'd said it to her, but she wouldn't repeat it until she heard Einstein say it! She enjoys whistling back to Einstein and gets really animated when we watch these videos! She's young, about 11 months old, and I'm glad we have these videos for her to watch - we both really enjoy them!!

[datchamp2011]

i like your bird like i never seen a bird talk like that

[cayleen26]

7:07

[StemmedGrevius]

i want a bird that does the heavy voice from tf2

[Missippis1]

I LOVE EINSTEIN!!

♥♥♥.

[mhand00]

He keeps changing the gripping leg on his perch. I wonder if the fact that it has a square shape and quite narrow not comfortable for his very large feet. Maybe you could get a wider and round grip, more like a tree branch.

[jnineize]

@mhand00 He's sitting on the shower ledge not a perch

[RoseImmortal]

You know...these birds are so smart that I find myself wondering if they don't just chatter. I wonder if they're imagining interactions and roleplaying a bit. I know they don't understand everything like we would, but there's something so playful that I start to wonder if they have imaginations. :-)

[littlelauren971]

"eat your lunch" *chewing sounds* my eyes started crying with laughter

"LOOK AT YOU! YOURE ALL WET!" :'D

[Stellaanotte]

the cutest parrot I've ever seen, such a sweetie :)))

[midtgardsabastian]

eat your lunch lol. i cracked up so bad at 1:00

[MeAndMyBirdRio]

Its so creepy how do they do that!?!

(Iknow how they do it so don't tell me)

[bbvibrabb]

Why does she do it though?

[Stroocker]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEET  XD

[MrTommYYZ]

I say to my doggie all the time, "Gimmie a kiss" and "Take a shower" He likes to give kisses but does not like the shower.

[mj20094ever]

I have 3 birds a citron cockatoo, congo african grey and a lovebird. We love them so much and it's wonderful to see Einstein say nothing but positive words. Yous are obviously awesome to her and love her very much. I hate when owners think it is funny to have them swear. My grey and cockatoo are funny, they talk and imitate sounds. I have to say Einstein has them beat. God bless yous with many many more years with Einstein.

[4zebird]

@mj20094ever Thank you for your kind comment! Yes, we do love her very much. We agree with the no swear policy. Einstein is rated "G" for all audiences!!!!

[paz2001]

@mj20094ever Wtf is wrong with making them swear? Jeez, stop giving certain words this magical power that we should be afraid of.

[teeru786]

Cool ! Thanks for the info. :)

[TheReeShow]

I love how she makes the watery sounds, maybe all Greys can do it :/

[bakemonoshi]

Fuckn ache. Let's go outside, can i have some water, it sounded like begging to me. It's a crazy sad existance, if it is what it seems like, to not know why "sweet" people don't always answer his calls. Can you aaaany of you guys relate to that? Ours is a sad existance aswell, purpose is a human thing, so all purposes are valid, morality and emotion are kind of short-circuits, in ya head, you moron! Things are prettier on the other side of the moon.

[mrryan100111]

how old is this

[MrChucklemonster]

Gimmie kiss! Muah

[thefitzs]

This bird can talk more properly than most Americans. It's sad.

[teeru786]

What's the purpose of covering the cage ?

Excellent parrot u have ! God bless him , amen !

[4zebird]

@teeru786 Thanks! Being covered at night helps them sleep more soundly and feel more secure, but there are just as many who claim that their birds are doing fine without using cage covers at bedtime. It's personal preference.

[dogus194]

@4zebird my cockatiel doesn't like me covering all his cage so i only cover the top bit and leave the side facing the room open so he can see any movements happening over the night but im not sure if there night vision. lovely bird by the way!! his so smart :)

[realvideos19]

who lets the dogs out??? who who who?? lol

[sharkq80]

hello

please i need to ask you , do you put it in the cage at night and do u cover it ?

[4zebird]

@sharkq80 Yes, she sleeps in a covered cage at night.

[Bigpooper100]

My galah also just came up with a water noise kind of like that! He rarely does it, and its so pretty.. Its so annoying because I cant make the sound for him to repeat hahaha. No one believes me when i say he does it

[mermaid12345678910]

awww!soo cute! i think its truly amazing that birds can learn to talk like humans....they are truly crazy awesome animals.

[AlexZmKiller]

HAHAH 0:56 I WAS CRYING HAHAHH LITTERALY

[Mrdsnext2u]

wow that bird speaks alot of words

[mexicankid007]

That's the most perverted parrot I've ever seen

[EffingAndJeffing]

Sweet potato, grape, broccoli, cantaloupe, bread, and of course cooooorn... lunch of champions!

[CorkyD163]

How did you teach her the water noise

[4zebird]

@CorkyD163 We didn't, she just did it.

[lemojucy]

Thanks <3

[remosura01]

nyahahahaha nice parrot kepp it up trained him/her

[lemojucy]

Congratulation! It's a beautiful one. GOD BLESS THIS SPECIAL FRIEND, & SHE CAN LAST MUCH MORE YEARS WITH US, AMEN!

I used to have one Green parrot with yellow color on top of the head, and colorful wins.

His name was Lorenzo, he used to say many words and sang different melodies

He used to call the dogs every time they ran after the cars saying "Come back doggies, doggies... come & take your cookies"(& whistling) - Best friend ever... RIP

I never knew what specie was it ! Regards from Venezuela!

[4zebird]

@lemojucy Thank you for your prayer!  And here is one for you... "May Lorenzo forever be in your heart and fly free in your memory, AMEN!"

[ppaattaa0]

@lemojucy I AM FROM VENEZUELA TOO (HOLIS!)

[lemojucy]

@ppaattaa0 Hola! Saludos!

[musicmanvin1]

@lemojucy sounds like a yellow fronted amazon parrot. sorry for your loss

[lemojucy]

@musicmanvin1 - Thanks and, - Do you mean Amazonas - Venezuela?!! - Right?? Thanks for the info ;)

[musicmanvin1]

@lemojucy Ya the Amazon Parrots are native to Central and South America, I don't know which exact region the Yellow Fronted ones are located tho, but I'm sure some googling can figure that out. lol

[dxjohncenacaz]

@lemojucy Cool story bro

[bl00dst41n3d]

which type of parrot is she?

[4zebird]

@bl00dst41n3d She is a Congo African Grey Parrot

[bl00dst41n3d]

@4zebird thank you for the quick reply!

[maratorotino]

@bl00dst41n3d  Zako

[janecroft]

From 7:32 - 7:39 Einstein is even integrating a little ballet performance in his show program! :-)

[janecroft]

Einstein is way better than every entertainer I have EVER seen on TV!!

[crossacadamy]

does he ever just go off in the middle of the night?

[hanni1234561]

@svfff yeeeaaah that's right! He really sounds like him. it's sooo funny to listen to einstein! He's great! :)

[TheVideoza]

Cool! I have an African Grey too! It speaks chineese!

[cassielove00]

Shake shake shake...shake your booty....WOO!

[Tsuta86]

wow her pronunciation/sound is so clear compared to all the other parrot videos i see. It sounds like a recording.. is this really real?? xD

[Rislandgull]

What a sweet voice he has. I love when he recites his veggies.

[Smilesmilesmile4evr]

Is he really saying this stuff?? The best i could get mine to say is i love you mommy.

[svfff]

einstein sounds like michael jackson

[weeeezzll]

I want to teach a parrot how to talk like Herbert from Family Guy...lol

"You boys want some popsicle!? I got some fresh ones down in my basement..."

[WOWayne325]

@ 7:05 shake your booty! lol

[molonlave2010]

Too bad Einstein is dead :(

Gonna miss that bird

[4zebird]

@molonlave2010 You have your parrots mixed up. This is a different one and very much alive.  Go to Google and search "Einstein parrot Blog" and read the post "The Name Game"

[mj20094ever]

@molonlave2010 Einstein isn't dead. It's Alex the african grey that sadly passed away.

[katlyntraxler1]

@molonlave2010 Alex is the bird that passed away.

[josephliang63]

@molonlave2010

how long did einstein live? I thought they live a long time. no?

[hebneh]

I now know that Einstein's owners are named Marcia and Jeff.

My fave: "Shake." Said while she's shaking. (At 1:00).

[AveryAndMay4ever]

Potato, carrot, broccoli, BROCCOLI!!!!!!!! I love Einstein she's such a good girl!

[lelders12]

[screamOLovez124]

[DemonicLionXXX]

[MELISSA84008]

lmao..did he just poo and then say 'bombs away'.!?!? THATS funny!!

[MELISSA84008]

He's so smart!!!..i always thought they were just repeating words/phrases but it's like he associates the word w/ what it means as well..he said 'wanna take a shower?' and actually ruffles up his feathers and shakes like he's really doing it! lolz

[DemonicLionXXX]

we'll go fly? wheeeeeeeee! XDXD

[DancrKaylin4738]

[DemonicLionXXX]

[TheOmgdan]

My friends bird can curse.....always when his brother walks by then he yells :'GAY!'

[robair9911]

[4zebird]

@robair9911 Yes, she does.

[skrillex1905]

this parrot is awesome. and i like it when he said let' go fly weeeeee :D love it.

[scotsguard2011]

My African Grey is only 3 but already has an excellent vocabulary. And loves the Mcdonalds comercial tune. Einstein is great.

[zeffyismylove]

LOL his talking to himself HAHAHAHA so funny omg it seriously sounds like a dub over but it isnt O.O
