This is Bandit, He has a vocabulary of around 200 different words and speaks them in sentances that he puts together himself at will. UPDATE: Unfortunately, I left my bird with my "best friend" to care for him while I had to take care of family business and he took him to a pet store in Florida and when I found out, he was already sold. I want my bird back and if there is anyone that can help me out, I would love it. I miss him dearly. Bandit was in a pet store near Englewood, Florida. If anyone has any information about where I might possibly locate his new owners, I would greatly appreciate it.
FURTHER UPDATE: Bandit is still missing. During our family crisis, we moved to Indiana. Prosecuting from a 1000 miles away is not economically possible for us. However, we did seek advice and since we can't locate the receipt from where we purchased Bandit ($1200), we were told that proving we were the owners of Bandit would not be impossible but would be difficult. Then the cost of prosecuting beyond that. No, we obviously do not talk to guy responsible for the theft. However, we heard that he was telling everyone that I gave him the bird as payment for money we owed him. Funny thing is, we never owed this man any money for any reason. Of course it's not a far stretch for a thief to also be a liar. This video is our memory of Bandit and we appreciate all the kind words and sympathy from all who have posted comments. Thanks!
