Farting Parrot

[Michael]

Never in my wildest dreams did I think a bird could fart! I had Truman out a bit this morning and he was on my arm but I wasn't specifically looking at him. He let off quite a fart prior to dropping a shapely chocolate hotdog right on my floor. But actually I'm pretty happy because it's starting to look like he's pooping normally. It seems like he is starting to return to normal. The recent high pressure sunny days have definitely lightened his spirits. The four days of rain we had prior weren't good though.

So there you have it, one more talent to add to Truman's list: a bird that can fart.

Why not get him to do that on cue.

are you positive it wasn't you??

Why not get him to do that on cue.

That would be priceless!

[Michael]

Believe me, he wasn't vocalizing. It came right out of his butt preceding the big poop he took on my carpet.

Truman is one talented bird

My birds mimic farts ... maybe I'll have to pay closer attention now

...bathroom humour aside, it's great to know that his plumbing is in order. I think that's one of the concerns with hip injuries, isn't it?

[Michael]

Yeah, and medication.

Galileo has farted! She and Truman sound like a match made in heaven. Or at least the bathroom.

Lord knows what horrid birds that would produce

But its a good thing he at least is pooping normal
Are you sure it was a real fart before the poop. Kika sometimes makes a mushy "fsjrprrrrr" noise during poops. Or does that count as a wet fart?
