Does anyone else feel like there bird's merit as a pet bird is based on there ability to talk or not? Seems like every time I have someone new over and even people who've met Jupiter before are immediately like: does he talk?
I say conures can learn to talk but they aren't overly known for it. Mine hasn't talked.
They seem so disappointed. And even try and suggest things to get him to talk. They say aw that's disappointing.
Well I didn't pick my bird based on whether he can talk or not! If he never talks, that's fine. If he does, that would be pretty cool. But he makes a great bird either way!
And I find people do this with other parrots. My mom will go on and on about her friends parrot that talked a lot. How cool he was.
But he was kept in really shizzty conditions, super small cage, rarely ever let out.
But that doesn't matter... because he can talk.
It just annoys me. I mean, I think it's crazy that parrots can talk and I like watching videos on here and YouTube about crazy talking parrot antics, so freaking adorable!! But obviously the owners of those parrots love them a lot, and talking is just one small thing that makes them a great bird.
