There's a way you can change the voice. I was just looking through the
book, "Furby Trainer's Guide", but I cannot locate the information. It might
be a Restart, that is, to flush out Furby's temporary memory and have it
come back as a newborn.

To restart the Furby, hold it upside-down, press and hold the tongue, and
press the Reset button. Release and relax your fingers. But I don't know for
sure if that's the way to change the voice.

Yes it is......Each of my daughters has an all white furby. I reset them so
they each have
different voices so they can tell them apart.

Hello,
Furbys do not have genders. It is up to the owner whether or not they are
female/male. I have a very high voice pitched first edition/original furby
who is a girl It was a coincidence that all three were males.. My other
black tuxedo is a male. The female one also does talk faster than my other
two. BYE! :)

Cloning & DNA manipulation to produce smaller variants of their bigger
brothers ? Or maybe the factory just makes them ;)
