I have had birds, and my bf has one now. The African Grey can speak and picks up the weirdest things to say. He screams my name, shut up, hello, apple, and now hola. Also he perfectly imitates the ring of the telephone which made me jump up and answer the phone at first. African Greys are smart, verbal, sneaky, fun, messy, dependent, beautiful, loud, and can bite hard. You need to feed and give them water daily. You need to clean the cage often of it will smell and attract flies. Birds need a big enough place to stretch their wings.

If you plan to get a bird, read books and talk to owners about how to take care of them. I have learned so much from reading books. Birds are fun, but they are work.
