It's as if he's saying "don't leave without me".
My query is this:
Everyone is still on holidays except me
I am back at work. However, when I come home I am told of all fantastic things Smokey says and does. When I get home I hear him from the driveway yelling out cos he knows I am home (No one is allowed to let him out of his cage, only me - that's another story !!)
As soon as I get in the door, I let him out of his cage. Then he generally sits on my shoulder, or my chair. However, the entire time he doesn't say much to me. I hear him if he decides to play with his toys but this is not for that long and I don't get to hear all the things my family tell me he says. My theory is that he is entertaining himself until I get home. Once I get home, he doesn't need to talk to himself cos Mum's home and he is quite happy just to be in my company - no words needed - just unspoken love
. If I have got something he wants then he might say hello to me, he will ask me what I am doing but that's about it.
What do you think? Do you think I could be right? Or doesn't he like talking in front of me? Anyone elses bird do this?
Also any ideas on how I can get him to talk for me?
