She's Pretty, He's Pretty.. They're ALL Pretty...

[Obi-Wan Pinobi]

Birds, that is.

Remember our baby cockatiels, the 2 clutches - first clutch born at Christmas and the second on Valentines Day? Well, we kept 4 of them and now all 4 have taught themselves to say "Pretty Bird".

And they like it


A lot


chatter chatter Pretty Bird chatter Pretty Bird chatter Pretty chatter Bird


The other night one said "Hailey drop it". We have to tell Hailey that every night before she goes out for the final time because she always wants to take whatever bone she is chewing on at the time outside with her.

But now, every 10 seconds we hear "Pretty Bird" coming out of 1 of 4 beaks.

How long before the novelty of their first word wears off on them?

Is it like children where you're begging them to say mama and dada then wishing for the next 18 years they'd just shut up?

Yeah.. except its quadruplets. And they learned this from their father. Lauri was trying to get them to say "Soul Patrol" during American Idol. I think they were Katharine fans though.

Awww. I used to have a cockatiel. His name was Pepe. The other day I was trying to remember what kind of bird he was and I called him a cocktail, but knew that couldn't be right.
