She says "kisses" and "Hi Zoe" and she whistles. She's a real sweetheart and is a very outgoing bird. Anyone can pick her up...almost. Bruce, my son, sometimes has problems with her biting him. She is fine with *anyone else* so I'm pretty sure it's because he played a little too rough with her after we got her and she never forgave him for it. :) For the most part, she's fine with him, and he loves to talk to her and "cuddle" her. :) Our Jardine's parrot is definitely our most friendly bird. They're playful and smart. Look them up and read about them! We also have an African Grey -- he's shy and nervous, but he's a really good bird. :) She does talk a little.

I just finished reading about your Zoe. She was 3 months old when you wrote it...how is it going now? Does she mimick or talk yet? We are looking into getting a Quaker. Nervous about the biting though> We have had a cockatiel in the past and of course he bit, but it wasn't harsh!! Look forward to hearing from you... Patti HI!
