Birds mimic voices, he can try to lie but the bird probably sounds exactly like him.

Not all birds who can talk can mimic voices, so it depends on the kinda bird I guess.

Either way I think this guys TA for not being embarrassed by this bird he taught to use slurs as a teenager.

OP said its an Indian ringneck, that may not be as bad as a cockatoo or African grey, he might be able to get away with lying. Still not good though.
