I had a pair of fischers lovebirds when I was stationed in Germany and they never talked, also, birds don't always talk if they have a mirror, However, on YouTube there are pairs of IRN's which talk so maybe there are exceptions.
I'm not sure about celeriac, because IRN's prefer veg which has seeds, they also love sweet corn, when Sanjay talks, it is quietly, sometimes I have to listen really hard, to catch what he is saying.

Some owners shoulder ride their birds into the shower with them, others give them a bowl of shallow water to bath in, but I prefer the misting bottle method, to which I add a few drops of organic rosewater and glycerin to condition the skin and prevent scaly foot, sometimes I dry Sanjay with a warm, not hot hairdryer.

I am giving them cerelac now with warm water. Is it the proper way?

Re: Couple alex can talk? If they are together?
They sound too young to have left their breeder, Sanjay was 8 Weeks when I got him and he was eating solid food, so I really can't advise you on this, there may be answers somewhere else on these boards.
