  • you could roll up my Ass?

  • @Dimigrey

    This is Alec's mom. I feel a need to explain... my girlfriends and I are teachers and have among 3 of us over 80 years in special ed classrooms. In times of job stress we came up with the statement "you can crawl up my ass and eat a sprout sandwich" we continue to add different types of sandwiches directly relalated to the amout of stress we are under. So when teaching Alec this he says "sproutwitch" It is so funny!

  • OMG this is hilarious! I've been trying so hard to get my grey to say "Merry Christmas" but he just refuses to say it.

  • @AllyCzadowski

    Just got the book Barron's Guide to a Well Behaved Parrot... seems to have good ideas. Also use various inflections when teaching and add 'Ho ho ho" make it somewhat loud and try face to face in a quiet area.

  • Hilarious. I shared this video with my friends on FaceBook and Twitter. What an excellent singer!!

  • Thanks Karen! Alec is a VERY funny bird, and is suprisingly perceptive. He links events and responds accordingly. He knows the cats, and our other Grey by name, and calls them when he see's our heres them. Thank you for posting him to your facebook and twitter sites. We are just having some fun with him, and hope everyone else does as well. happy Holidays!
