I have a Congo African Grey, he is almost two years old. He talks a little and mimics sounds.

I am not sure as to how to get your bird to talk, I would suggest that you talk to him a lot, be repetative and such. Does your bird mimic the phone and other normal household sounds?

I have found that Draco will mimic what I say the most....his first words being "Hi Draco" and "hello baby!". His vocabulary is definitly limited at this point. I am also convinced that he 'practices' his words when no one is home so he can surprise us when a human is near!
