Got this as a present for my parents' African Grey - he was annoyed at first but quickly became intrigued with Squawk. Great entertainment value....

As an owner of two macaws that I hand raised I was a little wary of something like this but was really blown away by the remarkable actions of this " toy ". This is as close to a real bird as it gets and could easily be used for both children and adults as a way to educate them about macaws without using a real bird. It could also be used as a training tool for real birds to help them become adjusted to a bird presence without the danger of a real bird that might be a bit cranky.
I always wondered how it might be to combine the personality of my blue and gold macaw with the traits of my greenwing macaw and found that I could do it with this toy bird and found that it created just what I wanted it to do. Now I have what could be termed three pets. I wouldn't give this to a small child under six or seven as it is a little bit delicate [ just like a real bird } but over all it is well worth the price and I am really glad I bought it.

I have checked out all of the FurReal Friends and this one I bought. It's capabilities far outweigh all the others. It has quite an extensive vocabulary, unlike the others that just make noise. It was so much fun for us adults playing around with it, it made it hard to give to my granddaughter who I had bought it for. The price is kind of high on here though. I paid $47 for mine at Walmart.

I bought this for my 4 year old daughter for Christmas. She really wanted it and when she got it, she was so excited. The product works as advertised and she enjoyed it very much. The only problem is that after about a week or so, it just sat on her dresser. At first she left it turned on, now it just sits there in silence with the switch turned off. Occasionally she will walk by and flip the switch on the back to hear it say hello, she will say 'Hi Squakers", then she turns it back off. While it sounds like a great idea in theory, your kids will tire of it shortly. Had I thought it through I probably could have figured that out myself but it just looked like such a great toy. If you buy it, just be prepared to have a very attractive and expensive talking paperweight.
