Nuded to me is slang for caught/exposed. Maybe she's saying they're not tame?

or maybe she cant spell & is saying neutered? I would hope not since its a bird but im at a loss! and trying extremely hard to to start laughing since im three sheets to the wind and nuded has sent some interesting visuals to my brain on a serious note never heard that before, so its a guess unless you out & out ask her what she means by that.. if you do will you come back & tell us so we can set our mind at ease? please ;D

Ya that's what If figured haha I found out Doulala is in Africa!! So I guess she thinks it'll be more convincing to "sell" African greys from Africa lol
