Today, my bird learned to mimic my fire alarm. It proved it to me at 3 am. FML

Now all you have to do is make it learn a police siren and you'll be set with a watch bird.

How often does your fire alarm go off?

Why is your bird awake at 3am? Jeez, shut off the lights and cover his cage so he can get some sleep. You deserve it for not taking proper care of your bird.

Birds usually don't fall completely asleep. I have a cockatiel myself and I cover his cage at night but he doesn't manage to stay asleep.

Don't worry, my bird does it to me too.

It takes a lot of repitition to teach a bird to minic something so, seriously, why does your fire alarm go off so much?

it really doesn't, only takes once if the bird thinks its interesting. not to be annoying just saying

teach your bird police sirens, gun shots, and crazy stuff then get it to mimic them at your will and then use the bird to freak people out

And you thought just getting those 49 fire alarms to stop going off at 3 am last week was annoying enough. The bird thought it was a singing competition and now wants to try his hand at it. Now that you've heard both it's time to give the verdict. So, which was better?

OP, if you don't teach your bird to sing pleasant songs at pleasant times it's bound to mimic something. You just lost this game of Russian roulette. But it's ok. Just leave the window open and you can spend $50 and try again. Buy a cd of bird songs and leave it playing on repeat while you leave for work/school. New bird will learn to sing when it's light out and not when it's dark.
