The parrot will not continue to repeat what you have said for an indefinite period of time. When you speak he will repeat what is said twice and then you have to continue to talk to him if you want him to continue to repeat.

I got the parrot as a gift to 8 year old girl and she is really happy with it. She request the talking parrot and know how to work with it.

It only repeats what is spoken. However if you want to have some fun put two of them next to each other.. Speak toone and then set the other next to it.

I do not know...I bought it for my 6 yr old Grand daughter who loves to hear herself talk! I had it shipped directly!!! I am a Professional Groomer and also have had a LOT of dealings with Birds...You really need to "Record" whatever it is you want your bird to say and play the recording while you are gone. There are a LOT of talking Birds on You tube! FYI

My own focus is on children who are exercising their own autonomies and creativity , but have fun with your own,too!

I am not sure. My granddaughter only would say a few words at a time to have it repeat to her. Sorry.

Yes. The parrot is lovely and I, the caregiver, have started using it to entertain my wife, starting with waking her up in the morning with 'Good morning' and 'I love you'. The caregiver has to find words to engage the cared for through the parrot.

I don't know the size of your parrot, but if it's larger than a parakeet, I would say no. My birds (2) won't even go near it, but that's another story.

I would probably stray away from this one if he's not out for at least 6-8 hours a day. They are just too active for the most part, an African gray is probably the biggest bird I would keep in this cage, I just want to put this out there and I have no idea of your situation but if you don't already have a cockatoo research a lot about them and look for videos of an umbrella or Moluccan screaming turn it up as loud as it can go and be realistic about if you could handle that for potentially hours on end. I'm only saying that last part because I work for a bird rescue and cockatoos are the most largely abused and abandoned bird in the United States, with that being said consider adopting before going through a breeder, and also never think "well mine will be an exception" because it most likely won't so many people get rid of their cockatoos within two years sometimes less...and they live anywhere from 40-80 depending on species. It takes a very special type of person to own one of these animals, of all parrots they are by far the worst suited for captivity...specifically Moluccan but Umbrella is up there too.

I wanted to buy this for my parrots and King Homer Pigeon. He loves making the light flash and music sound on toddler Fisher Price toys. I have macaws and a grey that I could see scampering across it to make noise too. Did you buy it in the end? The two comments made are opposite of each other of whether or not it would be suitable!

Although nice, this is a bit of a small cage for a bird to stay in for a long time unless she's very small. We transport our umbrella cockatoo for 15 - 30 minutes or so in the car, but I think she'd be pretty claustrophobic if she were in there too long.

I am sorry I don't have a very good answer. I gave it to my daughter for Christmas. She has it up but so far no birds. Hoping for spring nesters.She thinks it could get noisy if it were in a bedroom because it is right up against the window..and there would be lots of chirping from baby birds.I guess it depends how sensitive you would be to that kind of noise.I think it would be a lot of fun to watch.Sorry I can't be of more help.

It says give it 24 hrs with mine, but 30 minutes in the office have it up and chirping

About 6 hrs. was my finding. After that it would stop responding to some command's. As I wrote in my review it was not as reliable as the Blue Parrott.

Assuming your bird will be getting physical exercise outside of the cage daily, then yes.

Not sure, early spring I guess. I didn't get anything. Maybe I don't have enough trees by the house. Also pick a spot where you have blinds or something so the bird isn't turned off by light and activity in your home. Maybe pick a window that is away from the busy areas of your home.

Mine will start chirping after about 3 weeks, but usually last 4 to 5 weeks. I also programmed mine so the light doesn't come on every time I push a button...that saves on battery life

A couple of days.....it depends on how many animals you have using it. I have 2 cats. The noise isn't too loud or bothersome.

The 2 prongs sitting up on perch, place the 2 holes underneath bird on to perch. And you bird should stay sitting there. And when turned on, any movement will cause bird to chirp. I hope this helps you.

No, but it only talks if you push him.. You would have to open him and remove the sound box to get rid of it, but the talking is REALLY quiet

I think you will need a larger cage. this one is very nice and I really like , but not enough room for larger, My little parrotlet has one larger for moving about.That is my thought.Buy bigger.24x24 at least. hope this helps
