I don’t actually know the answer to this. However, they don’t actually talk, they mimic. I have two parts and they are essentially recorders as they sound identical to the TV shows, radio commercials, and voices that they mimic all day. It doesn’t sound like a *parrot talking* (“caaw! Polly wanna cracker”). Rather it sounds like a recording of whatever they are mimicking. Sometimes I think I left the TV on or that my wife is calling me from the other room when it’s actually just one of the birds mimicking that thing.
