Skittles Progress - Talking & Gender Change, lol
Posted: Sat May 25, 2013 3:48 pm
Just had to share with everyone here, I had posted back a while ago that i was having problems getting my new IRN to get used to my hands or know the difference between a good and bad beaking.
Well that isn't much better but never the less I am having the time of my life with my IRN and the conversations I am able to have, he talks up a storm.
He sings songs that I have made up about him and that I sing to him, he doesn't just talk he also asks questions and has conversations, my grown daughters thought i was nuts in telling them this but they have seen it for their own eyes.
He will say what are you doing? I will say whatever it is I am doing, he will say.....Skittles is mommies baby girl? I will say yes you are...he will say, Skittles be gentle and give mommy a kiss? and then he will say Skittles is a good birdie for being gentle.
lol he says many other things as well but what I came on here to say was actually not so much about his talking ability but about the fact that I have had him since Jan 2012 and he was born on Nov 2012......I always had reservations about him being a male even though I was purchasing a female and the breeder I bought him from gave me a certificate with him that confirms he was supposed to be a female, DNA proven.
Well, he has always displayed in front of the mirror and his tail is crazy long, so i was questioning it since the beginning but then i just said oh I am probably wrong, now he is going through his first molt and low and behold are black and beautiful blue and rose coloured feathers growing in around his neck.
So now I have to get him to call himself mommy's baby boy instead of mommy's baby girl, lol.
