He shouldn't get much bigger; though his tail will grow some more I'm sure. Apparently they only get to be about 12 inch from beak to tail, and about 90 to 120 grams. He hasn't said a lot to us yet, but is very very cuddly and loves his beak rubbed. He shakes his head back and forth and makes a tongue rolling noise haha. The breeder says he also knows "I love you" and "tickle, tickle". I'm totally in love lol.
