The Teddy Bear Emporium

(FP) African Grey Parrot
by Folkmanis Puppets

Life-size and lovely, the Folkmanis AFRICAN GREY PARROT is another amazing bird that will fly off of retail shelves. Contrasting light and dark grey plush spectacularly portrays real feathers. A signature bright-red tail sets it apart from the rest. In real life, the African Grey Parrot is considered one of the most intelligent birds, mostly due to the fact that it can imitate speech. This Folkmanis African Grey Parrot gets its words from the imagination of the puppeteer, so its vocabulary is endless!

Movable beak and wings. Wings hold together with a magnetic clasp.
