Summary:Any tips on parrot training?



	I recently bought a spoon-fed African Gray.  It is now about 4
months old and I am starting to attempt to teach it to talk.  It is very
tame and pettable and not hand-shy at all.  If anyone out there has
any advice on training a parrot to talk or perform simple tricks, I would
appreciate it.  I have several books on the subject, but the more
advice the better.
