We call him Toby. He speaks a little Italian, knows most of the dog's commands, burps and dances to Sunday Morning Smooth Jazz Brunch with Greg Roach. We are sure he is going to learn to toot soon. You blame your brother but was it cause he toots naturally or were they artificial toots. Toby was raised in captivity, so he is very tame and friendly, I have heard captured grays are mean as heck. How did Joco come about?

Tooting noises via both means, i thnk...kinda gross when you think about it.

Joco is fairly friendly, my father and mother and one sister can all handle her with no problem (they show no fear), I sued to be able to , until one time she took a good chomp on my hand, and now when i hesitate, she hesitates...and it goes nowhere.

she is pretty unpredictable when it comes to people who dont know her or vicevera.

When we lived in Brussels, Belgium, you could get them pretty cheap. (about $300 CDN in 1983) My dad was always a large bird fan, so he bought one.
