I'm so proud of my baby she is almost 4 month and she can wolf whistle, not often only if I whistle first, and then the other night she said in a very rough voice Hello Mommy! I was so proud, cus every day I say to her Hello Mommy, and she has finally said it. I always thought they only started to talk at 6 month?  My hubby laughed as he says, when baby's are small you wish they they can talk, then they grow up and you cant stop them from talking, now sweetie has started, will she ever stop. ;D |

Yes it is great when they talk. There isn't really a specific age for them to start, some do start early at a few months old and others not until much later. The average age for starting to talk is sometimes said to be around a year.

Is it a CAG or a TAG? TAGs tend to start talking a bit earlier than CAGs do.

Spookyhurst Now thats a good question, I have not figured that one out, all I know is she is a maroon tailed Parrot. Now would be the best way to know the difference? I have a pic of her, which I have tried to post but know luck, maby if you could see her you can tell me if she is a CAG or TAG The background pic of the forum, (Parrot) she looks very similar to it |

Timnehs are generally smaller with a darker tail which is usually maroon, sometimes even blackish. The tail of a Congo is bright red. The beak has a paler brownish area on it rather than being all black like the Congo.
Timnehs are sometimes thought to start talking earlier than Congos because in the wild Timnehs stay with the family group for less time than Congos and therefore the development time is shorter. It is also this that is thought to be the reason that Timnehs are less nervous than Congos. However these are only theories, not absolute fact and all Greys are individuals who show a wide range of behaviours and talking ability.
