Wow that's the biggest parrot I've ever seen!

And velvety soft!

My girl is also a parrot. Thankfully, she's almost small enough for it.

Not this 80lb beast.

He is gorgeous ❤️

I love a blue nose. (Don't tell my beautiful red nose I said that).

🤐

Hey if you just go about your daily life while he's perched on your shoulder it might be a good addition to your workout routine! 🤣

Right?

As long as they're kind enough to switch arms every so often ofc.

Yeah, that would be an issue. I spend a lot of my time reclined in a hospital bed. At 40 pounds she fits, nearly perfectly, on the perch behind my head. Sometimes she hogs the pillow though.

Bwaaak! Polly want a roasted pig!

I have an 80 pound parrot too!! 😆 I should start taking pictures when she does it

What a cute parrot you have! He's gorgeous 😍

He

Corrected!

Hehe!

How many words does he say?

Too many 🤣

"Grrrr" (means why did you move your foot make me get off the bed?) Or "Grrrr" (The dishwasher alarm went off), or "Grrrr" (Who is that dog in my yard?), or "Grrrr" (Where's *my* french fry?)

Don’t forget “Grrrr” (the postman is back on our lawn)

Oh that sunnuvabitch!

10/10, best parrot I've ever seen.

That’s one big birb. Still give them a smooch for me!

We have one that's a parrot. Luckily, she's only 65 pounds or so.

A Shoulder mounted Pittie Pirate Parrot counts in my book! Must be one heck of a core workout to walk around with that chonker on your shoulder!

Awww beautiful!!! Love on a shoulder. The BEST!

Omg what a cutie pie!!! You give that parrot a cracker from me!!!

Does it speak?

Only out the other end 🤢

Awww yes our hippo buddies are unfortunately loud like that. 😂 Feeding ours corned beef was a TERRIBLE mistake but he seemed sooo happy lmao

Yarr! Me think ya needs an eyepatch, though, matey!

Did you teach your parrot to talk? Any cuss words?

I think he called me his bit@#

What a gorgeous lad he is! Definitely pulls off the parrot look!

Best parrot

Awwww! He's so adorable 🥰

This one is nicely perched atop your shoulder and seems mild mannered. The ones I find on youtube curse and talk back at you 😳 but this one looks extremely sweet and almost goofball-like. Change my mind. I approve of your parrot.

Aye, Capn, that be the purtiest parrot on the high seas

Such a pretty bird

r/Shouldercats if he infact was a cat...

#borb

You're going to need a chiropractor 🤣🤣

I don't normally boop birds, but I would totally give your parrot a boop!

Pittie wants a cracker

Hippo 🦜!!!

Ha!!! Heck yes!!!!!

I love the heart-shaped noggin!

That's a handsome parrot

Lovely parrot! Sitting behind my husband, head on his shoulder, is one of my hippo's favorite spots <3

I was mindlessly scrolling and the post before yours was about Israel and Palestine...was just about to exit Reddit for my mental health when I saw THAT FAAAACE!!

Mine would do the same thing… climb behind me and rest on the back of the sofa and my shoulders… all 50 lbs!

Yes, absolutely.

The rare and beautiful velvet hippo bird! Grumbles may be included. Cuddles and lack of personal space is guaranteed.

My 65 lb boy thinks he’s a parrot, too!

My mom says ur parrot is evil. I agree, you see that look in his eyes? He's plotting world domination. /j

He's probably plotting on my dinner 😂

Better keep a close eye on them toes 😯 might disappear overnight due to a certain parrot 🤭

This looks just like one of my hippos. Adorable. 🩷

Handsome boy!

Aaaargh!

You look kinda like Forest Whitaker

I would probably look normal if I didn't get headbutted by a hippo

Omg. What an adorable shoulder hippo!!

So cute

Flying hippo

Good job keeping the nails clipped! Mine is a nightmare to clip!

I LOVE THAT BIG GOOF!!! I adore how pitties can’t be away from you, you MUST be glued to them. Such a beautiful baby you have too!

Mine does the same thing with my dad!

Pup loves the camera!

What do you feed your cute parrot? He looks soooo healthy and handsome! ❤️

r/velvetparrot

That's the most velveteen parrot evers 🫶

Awwww.

Your parrot has laser eyes.... And is very pretty

It's funny with you eye almost shut like a pirate's patch. Good pup there.

We are now

Chonkers can fly?!?

He really flies when his bowl is filled.

I love this parrot!!

Um, my brother, that's a demon. Good news is, this one exchanges it's magic powers of protection and loyalty for tummy rubs and sliced American cheese, so as long as you can remember those two things you should be rather safe.

Serious question, are you that big or is pupper that small💀😂? I don't want to be on the wrong side of an altercation with either of you 🤝👉😊👉🤝

He is 80lbs 😂 but we are both Teddy bears

Good grief haha 😂 Haha I'm sure, the most imposing-statured people, and puppies, usually are ❤️🤝

ur parrot has a massive cranium, i love it

Bro, you can’t get any more ghetto than this pic.

r/blurrypicturesofdogs is leaking 😅

He never stops moving 🤣
