Is it possible to identify a baby budgie with an aptitude for mimicking? [talking]. If so how so...

Not really too sure to be honest, I would guess and say it is just luck of the draw. I have heard that males are better at mimicking than females but females can learn a few words. I know in bigger parrots some babies start mimicking really early on in life and these ones you can pick because they have learnt early, but with budgies, I'm not so sure sorry!!

After a two week trip which ended two weeks ago

i noticed "eagle" barking like one of the dogs here and now is saying "hello" as of today,,, He just becomes a better pet every day for those new comers, don't give up!!! I have been trying to get him to talk now FOR A YEAR!!!

That's wonderful! None of mine talk, but I love it when they make the kinds of noises that sort of sound like talking. Maybe there's hope yet. :rofl:
