Morning Conversation with Einstein the Talking Texan Parrot

On January 5, 2010 this was the morning conversation heard from the shower. Einstein talked for 20 minutes, here are highlights boiled down to almost 7 minutes. (This is not the famous "Einstein" that was featured on the TV show Animal Planet Pet Stars. The only things they have in common is the name, good looks, and the desire to entertain humans!)

Does Einstein know any swear words (even mild ones), and if so, does she use them in context? I had a Mitred Conure who had learned some before we had him and he and pulled them out when he was upset.

@doggletts No, she doesn't even know mild ones. However, we have a friend who inherited a Grey who drops the "F" Bomb whenever the owner gets upset or is not pleased by something. The owner doesn't even have to say anything, the bird senses the displeasure and vocalizes appropriately!

Does Einstein Know any Beatles Songs? XD

[4zebird]

@BeatlesMonkees No, sorry she doesn't. I've tried teaching "I Wanna Hold your Hand" but she isn't interested.

@4zebird does einstein sleep in the cage or you let him free outside? and another question. I have a parrot like yours, I let it outside too, but when I come to put it in the cage, it starts yelling and biting me. do you have any solution for that pls? By the way, Love your vids. don't ever stop!! :P

[4zebird]

@jean4777 Yes, she sleeps in a cage at night. And she goes to her cage when we are not at home. Read and learn everything you can about positive reinforcement training. It takes time and patience, but it WORKS! Search on Google for GoodBird, Inc. All the information is there. The training DVD's are wonderful! I own all of them. Einstein was raised using this training.

i notice when shes talking about objects like food

she holds out her claw like shes holding it, like at 3:32

is that just random or is that another thing parrots learn

[happyequine]

Does she stop talking at night when you go to bed? Or does she make noise throughout the night?

[FreezyyGFX]
