****atiels can mimic sounds, including words and phrases! They're not having conversations, but they are surprisingly good at replicating what they hear often. This ability is more common in young males and with consistent training.
While not known for perfectly mimicking human speech like some parrots, ****atiels can be surprisingly vocal birds. This article dives into the fascinating world of ****atiel communication, exploring their ability to talk and how to encourage it.
Do ****atiels Talk or Mimic Sounds?
****atiels are intelligent birds with a knack for imitating sounds. They can learn to mimic words, phrases, whistles, ringtones, and even laughter.

Several factors influence how likely your ****atiel is to talk:
Age: Young ****atiels (around 6 months to 2 years old) are more receptive to learning sounds.
***: Males are generally more vocal and talkative than females.
Socialization: ****atiels kept alone tend to focus on mimicking their owners' voices.
Training: Consistent and positive reinforcement can significantly improve your ****atiel's talking skills.
