J-Man,
Okay, you're the man. I was using diagonal cut pliers and it was rather difficult. What do you use?

Those will work, if they're sharp. Small tin snips work well. The plastic is not brittle, it's tough but quite pliable. Actually, after doing a couple of these and knowing where the connectors are, I don't even have to cut the body. A good pair of surgical tweezers is all I need.J-Man,

Yes they are available! You don't need the remote or the perch, just a working Squawkers. You can email me.Do you still make/supply these? I see the birds for sale on EBay, most with no remote. Is that an essential item?
Looking good!
how can I buy this? thank youOK guys, here it is, the new All-in-One board for hacking Squawkers McCaw. Auto beak sync, random body movement, and built in 3W stereo amplifier with volume control for connecting directly to the internal speaker or a small external speaker.
It operates on a single 5V 2A power supply, no other power source is needed. The board requires a regulated 5V power source to operate, any voltage over 5.5V will damage the circuitry. Hence the reason each board will include the proper power supply. Target price is $65 plus shipping. I have a new method for getting at the required 6 wires inside of Squawkers without taking him apart, super easy! Here's a pic of the new board and a demo video. Board size is 2.8"x 2.1".

I emailed and HF Msg'd you re: 2 (or 4+) boards .. I am doing a POTC haunt this year, wanting to add a couple McCaw's to the scurvy crew, and put on a Tiki Room display during the rest of the year for the neighborhood (I used 4 resin parrots w/spotlights last year, just lighting them up when each spoke/sang, and had a bunch of tiki masks do the rain dance part) ..
