Wow! Casey really is a magical bird! And very handsome too.
Used to work in pet store, MaCaw, Cockatoo & African Grey could speak, but none of the Budgies...MaCaw, Sam, would dance every time I sang - he really loved Hello Dolly! He would sway in time with the music...
I agree with you Nancy, birds are smarter than most peeps think.
We know at 13 he won't be around much longer..that is old for a budgie...but he's still flying around and talking. I think he's still with us because he is so spoiled. LOL
Casey is too cute, Nancy! I used to always have budgies.. My last one (that we lost when he escaped his cage during our move to TX) was Max's best buddy and they used to preen each others heads, if you can believe that!! LOL I think birds are smarter than some give them credit for.. Mine say things at the appropriate time also and in the right context!! :D
Aww...I never tire of watching this video. Casey is such a sweetie pie, even though he tries to steal the stones out of my rings..lol. Thanks Teed. Luv Ya!
Casey is Beautiful! I Love his cage too. He sure likes that mirror. I think I heard his say "Twish1999" lol Very smart Bird! I really enjoyed watching this. Thank You! Rad
He's a gorgeous bird and you seem like a very caring owner. =)
I had a lutino budgie (all yellow) named Coco. We got her when she was six weeks old - I was four at the time - and she died a few years ago (aged 13). I still carry a photo of her on a toy car in my purse; my friends think I'm crazy, but we developed such a strong bond!
It's now almost three years on & I'm finally considering getting another bird. I'd like a male albino called Basil or a female Umbrella 'Too called Blanche. =D
Thank you so much for telling me about Coco. Casey is just about 12 now. He's starting to feel his age, I can tell. When you're so close to a pet you just 'know' these things. I've often thought that I would never be able to get another bird after Casey...but, who knows..maybe in time. I'm glad you're thinking of getting another. It's not replacing the one you had..because you never could, but rather showing your love for these tiny lovable friends.
thanks friend hes adorable try to make it an avi file it seems with my program the wmv files are not too good to open tomkin sdaid hed edited it because my software is limited i got including myself 7 people in it.
I have a great little parrot too, she is a lovebird. she doesn't talk (in english), but she sure is a character. i should post a response (I already have one I posted last week I think)
I saw this before, and he is so adorable. I can understand him. He's just so cute! 5***** and I voted for him. I'm going to go vote for him again! :) Love ya Nancy!
Wow, that is a great video of your Casey. Beautiful budgie, too! Looks like he is living in a castle within a castle! You have a lovely home, and Casey's house looks like a budgie's dream house!! He talks so clear. ...
. I had a Yellow Naped Amazon, who would call out to me as I put my makeup on in the morning, "Momma, I love you....!!" and I would answer him back and say, "I love you, too!!" and he would giggle with delight... He also would see me eating something that he recognized as something he likes, and he would say.."MMMmm, Want some."... Yes, I think they learn word association, or something.
Oh that Amazon sounds wonderful Mari!!! You know they are so much like little children..and most certainly become members of the family very quickly. Thank you for your great comment and stopping by to enjoy my Casey.
Oh my gosh Casey just blew me away! That was incredible. I could understand him and your right he seems to use the words properly:)))Thats the sign of an awesome owner Nancy. You really took the time to help him develop to his full potential. Casey is lucky to have you!!!
Thank you so much Sis! I feel I am the lucky one having chosen a bird who would learn to talk so quickly. I thin it is because I got him when he was so young. Thank you so much for your great comments.
Nancy that was absolutely super and yes his voice and his intonation was very clear. He sounds so like you it's really funny. My great grandma's parrot was a wonderful talker who used words in context and had a sense of humour. 5 star fave can't wait to show the kids. Cheers, Lesley
Just showed hubby and the kids twice they loved it so much! It's brilliant how they mimic. Max spotted that Casey says his words in the right order, he's no bird brain. L x
OMG Nancy, he is the sweetest thing and so talented! I didn't have any trouble understanding him. I always used to have parakeets, but now have the cockatiel and parrot. Mine both talk also and, like you say, they do it in the right context and say the appropriate things. They are just amazing aren't they?
Aw Nancy, that is the cutest thing I've ever seen. I especially love him looking in the mirror and saying Casey Bird. He kinda sorta sounds like an old time radio announcer hee hee xoxoxoxoxoxox
nancy.. It's an honour I suppose.. but a most unwanted one indeed.. I hope you get it sorted!! When I checked the channel out it wasn't a direct clone.. just a name copy.. but that is bad enough.. :P
i couldn't help but smile when he said "watchu doing? come here & gimme a kiss!"
i understand what you mean when you say it's like a person & people will say it's just birds good memory but you can really feel a connection sometimes =)
i had a bird like that longago and it allways said thx u when u gave it food or whater. it didnt talk much when ppl were there but talk alot at nighttime.
We have the same problem with Basil, he goes 'schtum' every time I bring the camera near him.. 11 years is an impressive age for a budgie, I must say! I used to breed them, now we only have the one, and he starts to sing and talk as soon as the Tv goes on.. :) Casy's one beautiful budgie, by the way.. :D
Budgies are very intelligent birds, and are known to use the words and phrases they know in the correct way.. I guess they associate certain situations with certain words... That's my theory! One of my 'babies' which my parents then had for many many years, was an allover yellow female, with red eyes.. she didn't talk, but was perfectly tame.. :) I miss breeding budgies.. :P
As I said earlier Rob..I would only buy one from a breeder so I know what I'm getting. The breeder was going to keep Casey as a show bird but I got lucky when I talked him in to letting me buy him instead. LOL.
Yes I thought 11 was quite old for a budgie but it is hard to tell Rob as he acts like a young fellow! Seems they do talk more when there is noise around them. Maybe you could get some vid of Basil to share with us.
It is rare to get a budgie that can do what he does.
I had a budgie too for 9 yrs. Only reason he didn't live longer was the cat from next door got into our house and snatched him. Got him back but he was pretty punctured. He used to have his own spot at the kitchen table and eat breakfast with me before school! He LOVED soggy corn flakes haha.
Hi Bea! Isn't he just adorable?! I don't know why I didn't think of putting him on here before. I feel so badly about what happened to your budgie! How sad. Yes, Casey likes to come and eat with us and funny thing is he knows not at dinner time. At breakfast and lunch he makes the mess of a two year old child, so we want one meal in peace and he knows not to bother us then. LOL.
I've been away from YT for quite awhile; this vid is like a 'welcome back' gift. Casey is incredibly awesome. Thanks so much for sharing this. I think he has a big vocabulary to match his big heart - he obviously loves you. :)
As far as paper training-budgies go to the bathroom every 15-20 minutes. We kept taking him back repeatedly when it was time. Since he has perches outside the cage with papers on the floor below we made him wait until he had gone and them brought him back to our finger again. You do this over and over and after awhile they know why they need to go back to the perch outside the cage. Casey will sit on the perch and keep looking down at the paper to see if he has gone.
Thanks for the 'welcome back'. :) And thanks for the response to my Q. Wow! I need to try it. I don't like keeping my bird caged (cockateil) but had no clue that birds can be trained that way. My feathered friend thanks you!
Oh, i never saw smething like that! Casey is amazing, my brother was watching with his mouth wide open and that is very rare, lol! Congratulations for having such a talented member in the family! Kiss!
Thank you Felix! I hope you could understand him. He says over 100 words and just never seems to stop talking..unless I point the camera right up close at him. LOL. Tell your brother to close his mouth now. :-0
REMARKABLE!!!!Casey , Gimme Kiss, kiss, kiss, come here, thank you much, whatcho doin?, good boy!! OH MY GOSH! Unreal. I noticed the proper context before you pointed that out. AMAZING! I've had several parakeets and read about their limited ability to talk, but have never heard of one so verbose. He's awesome! -sue
Yes Sue he is very remarkable and his memory over the 11 years is incredible as well. All those words he has learned but never forgotten. I think you heard more words than anyone so far. LOL. I've had many many parakeets and this is only the second one that really caught on to talking and I think that is because he was so young when I got him.
Solo, my hubby will be lovin this video, I sent it to him! He loves bords! We have one but it lives at Solo's moms house because Lil Miss wants to eat the birdie. We arent allowed to have him here in this apt. because of TJs leukemia! HUGS xoxoxoxoxo
Hello Dolores, I think with the cats if you had a bird it would have to stay inside the cage all the time. Casey spends more time outside the cage than in it. LOL
I know some people who have a fear of birds also Lee. We keep him in the cage or put the cage in the other room when they come to visit. That's okay..we understand.
Hi Casey bird! Happy new year. May 2008 bring you good health and yummy treats. I know your getting old but you've hung on this long. I love you buddy!
I'm Casey's big (human) brother Chris and it for real...this bird will talk your ear off!
Really enjoyed it, Casey is quite the little birdie. looks like you 2 get along great. Personalities in them all. you just have to let go and believe. Not a pet.... but FAMILY! Thanks for sharing that Nancy, Tell the Wiz Hello for me
Hi Chris. Wiz would have loved to put him in the act but I wouldn't hear of it!! He's too much of a family pet. Yes..he is family. All the best of 2008 to you and yours!
NANCY! I just POSTed AnD NOteD on Casey's cuUUTenESS, and it didn't TAke! :( .. I said how my dear Gabriel wants an African Grey I've heard were pretty brilliant.. but they look intimidating!;) ..I've never seen an Albino budgie before, but I'm looking forward to meeting your Casey here~ {he just came on the screen noww!}hehe;D
I know YouTube has been gobbling the comments lately. I'm afraid I couldn't handle an African Grey. They are beautiful birds but ooooh those claws. LOL Thank you so much for stopping in and watching Casey.
Hi Joyce..yes we take him with us when we go because he needs his fresh food, water and I wouldn't leave him at a place that boards animals as he spends most of his time outside the cage. Oh, he is paper trained! I think what you heard him say was "Come and give me kiss". Sometimes he talks so fast it's hard to catch all of it. LOL. He's in bed now and I can still hear the odd word coming from the cage.
What a memorable video capturing what we take for granted day in and day out. He's been the sweetest pet for over a decade and most of his efforts are due to your dedication to his needs. Thanks from HubbyWiz down under!
Thank you John/Wiz. Casey came to me at a time when I really needed him. He helped me to recuperate, and I in turn got my strength back, and was rewarded with Casey magically talking to me. A very very special and magical little friend indeed.
WOW Nancy, at first I thought this was going to be a joke. Budgies aren't known to talk much if at all! WOW you have such a special bird. I think I heard everything it said, I don't believe it came out of a budgie! lol Incredible. Casey talks non stop, you're very lucky indeed Love ya! Pips xoxox
Hi Pippy! Yes budgies can be taught to talk. Casey was a fast learner because he was so young when I got him. I know you thought it was going to be another chicken joke. SQUAWK! LOL. Yes, once he gets going he can't stop talking...and his words run into one another but he knows exactly what he's saying.
Yes Pippy..I have had many budgies over the years. This is only the second one that I could manage to get to talk that much. Usually it is the males that will..if they are so inclined.
Second You got A special Soul over there!First it looked like he swallow a radio..but when he asked u for kisses..knowing what he was asking! You are bless to have him! All this kind of birds talk? Or is only Casey?
LOL...You're so cute..saying he swallowed a radio Val!! There are different birds that you can teach to talk Val. Ones like Casey usually just the males talk. It takes time and patience, and lots of cookies. Casey likes to chew on my whip too!
I am not sure how long they live Kim. That's what I was wondering if anyone knew. I have had other budgies but they haven't lived this long. Of course I didn't spoil them as much either. LOL.
Glad you could understand him...I didn't know if the mic would pick it all up.
Thank you much for giving us this look at a truly special bird. I found myself laughing at his comments, and they truly are in proper context, amazing!
Hi Steve, that's what I found so amazing..you can almost carry on a conversation with this bird. LOL. I don't know how..but, he just knows how to put words and sentences in their proper order.
He is a magical creature Nancy and I hope he is with you forever. We have a yellow lab named Casey, he understands a number of words but he doesn't talk. lol I would drop dead if he did.
Hi Allen..It's strange enough to hear a little bird talk...can you imagine your yellow lab looking at you and saying, "Come here give me kiss" LOL...Yup I think I would fall over too.
Oh My!! I just skipped over to your channel and saw your icon!!! The hummingbird is my favourite!! Closest I've come is to have one light on my finger for a second. That is absolutely amazing!!! I must sub to your channel if I haven't already!!!
Hugs...Nancy runs of all excited about the hummingbirds.
Thank you Nancy! You should see the hummingbird playlist I set up. My icon is from the hand feeding Allen's hummingbird or something like that. Boo hoo. It's too rainy today to play with hummers!
He is such a good talker! Bean was watching Casey!

Oh Nancy, Casey is a gift to you!
It is rare to get a budgie that can do what he does.
I had a budgie too for 9 yrs. Only reason he didn't live longer was the cat from next door got into our house and snatched him. Got him back but he was pretty punctured. He used to have his own spot at the kitchen table and eat breakfast with me before school! He LOVED soggy corn flakes haha.

Hi Bea! Isn't he just adorable?! I don't know why I didn't think of putting him on here before. I feel so badly about what happened to your budgie! How sad. Yes, Casey likes to come and eat with us and funny thing is he knows not at dinner time. At breakfast and lunch he makes the mess of a two year old child, so we want one meal in peace and he knows not to bother us then. LOL.
Hugs and thanks.

I've been away from YT for quite awhile; this vid is like a 'welcome back' gift. Casey is incredibly awesome. Thanks so much for sharing this. I think he has a big vocabulary to match his big heart - he obviously loves you. :)
Just one Q: How do you paper-train a bird?
Thanks again for sharing.
HonestReflection 4 years ago
Welcome back TJ!!
As far as paper training-budgies go to the bathroom every 15-20 minutes. We kept taking him back repeatedly when it was time. Since he has perches outside the cage with papers on the floor below we made him wait until he had gone and them brought him back to our finger again. You do this over and over and after awhile they know why they need to go back to the perch outside the cage. Casey will sit on the perch and keep looking down at the paper to see if he has gone.
Hugs

Thanks for the 'welcome back'. :) And thanks for the response to my Q. Wow! I need to try it. I don't like keeping my bird caged (cockateil) but had no clue that birds can be trained that way. My feathered friend thanks you!

REMARKABLE!!!!Casey , Gimme Kiss, kiss, kiss, come here, thank you much, whatcho doin?, good boy!! OH MY GOSH! Unreal. I noticed the proper context before you pointed that out. AMAZING! I've had several parakeets and read about their limited ability to talk, but have never heard of one so verbose. He's awesome! -sue
breezin48 4 years ago
Yes Sue he is very remarkable and his memory over the 11 years is incredible as well. All those words he has learned but never forgotten. I think you heard more words than anyone so far. LOL. I've had many many parakeets and this is only the second one that really caught on to talking and I think that is because he was so young when I got him.
Thanks and hugs

Hello Dolores, I think with the cats if you had a bird it would have to stay inside the cage all the time. Casey spends more time outside the cage than in it. LOL

How cool that he goes on vacation with you! Most people don't think to take their animals with them.
Casey has such a sweet way about him/her. Is that him saying incoming kiss? That is soooo sweet!
Oh yes! I did enjoy this!!
JeepGirl2 4 years ago
Hi Joyce..yes we take him with us when we go because he needs his fresh food, water and I wouldn't leave him at a place that boards animals as he spends most of his time outside the cage. Oh, he is paper trained! I think what you heard him say was "Come and give me kiss". Sometimes he talks so fast it's hard to catch all of it. LOL. He's in bed now and I can still hear the odd word coming from the cage.
Thanks and hugs.

WOW Nancy, at first I thought this was going to be a joke. Budgies aren't known to talk much if at all! WOW you have such a special bird. I think I heard everything it said, I don't believe it came out of a budgie! lol Incredible. Casey talks non stop, you're very lucky indeed Love ya! Pips xoxox

Hi Pippy! Yes budgies can be taught to talk. Casey was a fast learner because he was so young when I got him. I know you thought it was going to be another chicken joke. SQUAWK! LOL. Yes, once he gets going he can't stop talking...and his words run into one another but he knows exactly what he's saying.
Love ya, Hugs.

batatakley 4 years ago
LOL...You're so cute..saying he swallowed a radio Val!! There are different birds that you can teach to talk Val. Ones like Casey usually just the males talk. It takes time and patience, and lots of cookies. Casey likes to chew on my whip too!
