What are the chances they end up with 100 (8+92) foul-mouthed parrots?

Obvs was living next to Pebble for a while.
The best thing that ever happened to me at the zoo is when my spouse and I came out of the reptile house to find a parrot who gave us a cheerful “Hello!” It was so funny we tried to get it to talk again. And it did when a much older, rather dour looking couple came out of the reptile house and the parrot yelled “OH SHIT! OH SHIT! OH SHIT!”

When I was in high school, ~1980, a local mall had a pet store, and at the back as a large cage with some sort of parrot. The mall was a popular hangout for us, as was the pet store.
Of course that parrot learned nothing but swear words. The worst random 15 year olds could come up with.
The owner said it was unsellable, so it sat in the back of the store, swearing like a sailor. Kinda sad… more or less a ruined parrot.

I would pay extra for a sweary parrot.
Parrots are already awesome.
One that can turn the air blue is off the scale amazing.
