Deb: Yes! My girly Green Cheek Says Pretty Birdie, Pretty Bird,
Pretty Pretty Pretty, Whistles, kisses, and says her
name "Cricket" or Pretty Cricket. She lived in a country store
as a pet, that is why I think she started so young 'around 1'.
She also lays beside me on her back in the bed. She's pretty
clear in her words, unless she's screaming it. In her nighttime
cage, she is very good at pronouncing her words.
