U.S. Presidents Andrew Jackson, Ulysses Grant, William McKinely, and Theodore Roosevelt kept parrots in The White House. Boehrer says that President McKinely's double-yellow headed Amazon was very popular with White House guests because it often shouted "Oh, look at all the pretty girls!" U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt had a Hyacinth Macaw named Eli. He was afraid of the bird's beak, but there is no record of Eli being a "biter".
First Ladies Martha Washington, Dolley Madison, and Grace Coolidge also had pet parrots. Quoted from: Carrie BurrowsArticle on
