We used to have a little red parrot called Damian. The name suited the little devil extremely well!!

Barry is another good name...

Dave is another one I like, but someone suggested that already..

Or how about Elvis... then you can teach him to say 'Thank you very much' and 'Uhh-huh Baby'...

We had one as a kid. We called him cookie as that was about the only word he could screech.

He'd had his wings clipped, so his flying ability was restricted to climbing on top of his cage, launching off and gliding in a spiral round the room till he hit the floor.
Anyway one day, he must have misjudged his landing, and ended up in the loo.
Unfortunately for cookie, the loo had that Bloo Loo stuff in it, so by the time he was rescued, he'd gone a funny blue green colour.
Sadly he fell from his perch the next day.
There's a moral about loo seats there.

Call him Soona, cause you'll find he'll 'sooner' sh*t anywhere in the house than where he's supposed to!! My other half wants one as well but can't say I'm up for the idea. She gets Cockatoo, I get Terrier, and in the words ot those two league of gentlemen characters "so..who would win between say, cocky and terrier?"

Only joking, I wouldn't really feed the bird to the dog for all those kiddies reading this. But if the dog was clever enough................. :cool:
