- No dogs are allowed in the pub as Frosty taunts them with meows
This foul mouthed parrot has amassed quite the fanbase taunting humans and animals alike - but his owner insists it's how the bird shows love and affection.
Nineteen-year-old African grey parrot, Frosty, was only 18 months old when he made his first appearance at the Vyvyan Arms Hotel in Camborne, Cornwall.
However in the 17 years he has been living with owner Scott Sowden, 57, the potty-mouthed parrot has firmly earned his celebrity status.
And it isn't only locals who adore the outspoken animal, visitors trek from across Britain just to hear an insult.
Scott said: 'Frosty was originally my mother's and was purchased from a local breeder here in Camborne.
Frosty (pictured) has firmly earned his celebrity status attracting visitors far and wide to the Cornish pub with his foul-mouthed antics, with his favourite word being 'w****r'
His owner Scott Sowden (pictured) claimed the bird has become so popular one person even offered him £3,000 for the pet
'She was allergic to the dust given off by Frosty and she gave him to us about 17 and a half years ago.
'His favourite word is 'w***er', it's affectionate. We had the Conservative club in the other week, 12 of them sat on tables next to him and he wouldn't stop saying it.'
Frosty has become quite popular thanks to his 'cheeky' reputation - often making visitors laugh and attracting fans of all ages.
His cheeky notoriety has cemented his fame at the boozer, with some offering the pub landlord an eye-watering £3,000 for the bird.
'The locals and most residents love him. Quite a few have wanted to buy him!
'Frosty has a couple come in every Friday and sit with him and gives him treats and another couple comes in on Saturday's.
'People just start laughing when he goes on one, especially when they hear him for the first time.
'He will also take the micky out of you coughing and laughing.'
The chatty parrot is also loved by the hotel staff too, including Scott's wife, Billy, 55, with whom he has run the pub for nearly 30 years.
Billy has been at the Vyvian Arms for 38 years as she was previously the licensee and barmaid before they took it on.
The couple say their parrot's humour knows no bounds - as Scott revealed no one is safe from Frosty's taunts.
He said: 'We don't allow dogs in, but on the occasion we do Frosty doesn't really like them and he will torment them by meowing.'
Though Scott says many amusing memories come from times Frosty has not sworn - as he recalls
Frosty originally belonged to the pub landlords mother, however she was allergic to the pet's dust

The parrot is a regularly visitor of the Vyvyan Arms Hotel (pictured) which he has ran alongside his wife Billy for nearly 30 years
'One night we had a duo band (Two for the Road) here and we had a back drop in front of Frosty.
'They started up with their first number and stopped because of feedback, one of the guys, Andy, got down on his knees and started checking out the wires.
'They started singing again and stopped again as there was more feedback - and then started singing again and they stopped again - while on his knees, Andy said there's nothing wrong with the wires.
'Then we heard Frosty shrieked out just like feedback and that was the cause of it. Everyone was in stitches.'
