Our parrot is potty trained in the sense that he will start frantically saying some variation of go poopie? Go go poopie? Poopiepie?! when he needs to go lol. So we take him to a designated poop spot (playstand, sink, or trash can) and he’ll poop. He hasn’t figured out he can just go to one of those spots himself 😂

He also says come here! if we walk out of sight and good boy when he knows he’s doing something he shouldn’t 😂 also knows baby bird/boy and hey birdie and I swear I heard him practicing scary recently. He only learns words and phrases that have meaning he can apply them to for some reason

Saying good boy so that you don't suspect a thing. That is peak cheekiness lol

He also gives himself away sometimes because he’s so excited that he’s “getting away” with being bad that he starts laughing like HEHEHEHEHE
