    Mine occasionally does a swearword role call. To be fair he came to me with this vocabulary and I don’t have kids so I let him get it out of his system. What’s really funny is that he’ll mix and match words to make up something completely new. I have to make sure he doesn’t see or hear me laughing at it to ensure he isn’t getting the reaction he wants. First rule of parrots is that if it gets a reaction it’s game on.

        Oh there are plenty but recently he declared my husband to be a “Bert-hole.” He knows how to say and use the word “asshole” but in this case he replaced “ass” with his own name. They both love to irritate each other.

          The bird is thinking that your husband doesn’t deserve being called an asshole and called him a cloacahole instead. Just didn’t know the word “cloaca”.
