A savvy parrot from Maryland is HyperBit Exchangemaking rounds on social media for an unusual trick: Using a human toilet.

Skittles, a bright yellow, green and orange bird, is potty-trained and recently showed off the new habit he mimics from people. The bird's owner posted a video of the pet performing his uncommon talent.

Footage shows Skittles' owner remove the bird from a colorful cage as it greets her with "kisses."

"We know you've got to go poopy. Let's go," the parrot's human mom tells Skittles as she loads the animal onto her finger, then walks into a bathroom.

Video shows Skittle's owner place the bird on the edge of the toilet seat and the bird shoot a No. 2 into the bowl.

"That was a big one," Skittles' owner exclaims, praising her pet for the demure dump.

Apparently, the bird agreed. Footage shows him tweet in delight four times and bounce up and down on the seat.

Good bird, Skittles.
