Good question! smile Ive never had a Parrot before, but I know that It will take a lot of time to get him to stop because Birds learn slowly.

Right now, you can try praising him when he's not swearing, and ignoring him when he does. Teach him other things to say and praise lavishly when he says that instead.

Or you can try teaching him words that 'sound' like the swear words, like if the parrot says a swear word beginning with C, you could say 'chuck' or 'check' or something wink

Good luck

I don't know much about parrot behavior also. But I agree with ScorpioMarie.

Ignore the swearing and try to teach him other things to say.

Thanks for answering Xana smile Thats really the only thing you can do, maybe the parrot will get bored of those words and want attention and start saying better words. hopefully ignoring him will help xx
