So with my birds (Parakeets) if they hear a parakeet on my phone chirping they will call to it and try and communicate. They will believe a bird is actually there and be interested.
With Lily, if I play her happy guinea pig sounds she literally ignores it and walks away disinterested.
I’m curious as to why? Do the sounds they make not serve to communicate/ simple language to each other? Or are they only made for themselves? Or does the cell phone change the sound slightly enough to not fool her.
I some ways they communicate to each other though as they will weak when wanting food from us and chatter teeth at another guinea pig when mad or cry when scared. She comes when I call her name. But maybe their sounds don’t serve a language function.
Can you tell I’ve been around birds too much? Lol
Just curious others thoughts or observations.
