What Bird Is the Easiest to Teach to Talk?
All known as talkers and quick learners, African Grey Parrots, Quakers and two species of Amazons are the easiest to teach to talk. However, a bird's ability to talk should not be the criterion for owning one. Choose your talking bird for its personality because some birds will never be accomplished talkers.
