female quaker parrot, green and grey, about 9 months old, with cage worth. I am going to have to sell mine and just need a basic idea. She was hand-raised, spoon-fed, and is very sociable

A lady from work bought a McCaw egg, and it was hand raised for 3 months and then shipped to her, but that was 20 years ago. Is that still done today?

A woman went to a pet shop & immediately

spotted a large, beautiful parrot..

There was a sign on the cage that said $50.00.

“Why so little,” she asked the pet store owner.

The owner looked at her and said,

“Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of Prostitution

and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff.”

The woman thought about this, but decided

she had to have the bird any way.

She took it home and hung the bird’s cage up

in her living room and waited for it to say something.

The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said,

“New house, new madam.”

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication,

but then thought “that’s really not so bad.”

When her 2 teenage daughters returned from school

the bird saw and said,

“New house, new madam, new girls.”

The girls and the woman were a bit offended

but then began to laugh about the situation

considering how and where the parrot had been raised.

Moments later, the woman’s husband Keith

came home from work.

The bird looked at him and said,

“Hi, Keith”

Ok its literally a mixture of a parrot and a parakeet, it has the core of a parakeet and the head and wings of a parrot, so here’s my barrage of questions

Can it talk?
How old is it before it can learn speech?
How do u keep it entertained?
And how do I make it not freaked out of my hand(It got abused earlier in life, not to seiriously though…)
man momabird is makeing me feel like an idiot lol, i was just stating it looked like a parrot and a parrakeet mixed, i wasnt pionting out a hybrid or something…
