Could it be possible to train the parrot in the matter of a few days?
Is it also easier if the phrase (such as "spring break") is mentioned in the context of something that doesn't seem "forced" to the parrot? E.g. if the phrase is mentioned in a repeating song, or if someone uses the phrase as an emotionally charged swear word? (apparently parrots can be good at learning swear words b/c swear words are often spoken with extra salience over regular words). Do parrots learn faster from these more-naturalistic settings which don't seem "forced" to the parrot? (as compared to even the model/rival technique?)
Also - just out of curiosity - is there online video available of a parrot saying "spring break"? And also - what are some parrot meetup groups in the Boston/Cambridge area? (I'm new to the area so I'd like to be able to meet some parrot people - I know that the Alex Foundation parrots are in the area
