Hi Jean,
Thanks for the feedback. My tiel is a yellow Lutino, somewhat like the picture below.

Thanks again!

Mars

Mars,

Beautiful bird!!! I don't know why he won't talk. Do you talk to him?
My bird says things I say to him. He started talking when he was a baby.

I read in one of my bird books that they will say what they like the sound of. My bird knows the when I say, "I'll be back." That I am leaving, and he won't go in his cage unless I give him a treat. Now he has learned to run down, grab the treat, and get back to the top of his cage befor I can shut the door.

They definitely are intelligent creatures!!

Love, Kathyp

Why not get him a tape of sentences? Or even a kids tape. I had a blue and green magcaw that I played kids songs and sayings for him. It helped him to talk. Love Oma
