    How loud are Blue-Throated Conures?

    I was doing my research for birds and I fell in love with the Blue-throated Conure and I was wondering how loud they are? I live in an apartment. They're in the Pyrrhura family and I've heard that they were a "quiet" species. Thanks!

    Feather plucking?

    I got my pineapple conure about 3 weeks ago and recently I’m noticing that’s he’s shedding a lot of feathers especially the colourful ones. The previous owners told me he was 3.5 months old so I think he’s too young to be molting. When we initially got him he would lose maybe around the 1-2...

    Baby Halfmoon Conure

    Hello! I recently purchased a Halfmoon Conure that is about a month and one week old. He is handfed three times a day. However, I was wondering when should I stop handfeeding him? I was also wondering when should I handfeed him once a day?

    Your bird wants you to read this (how to care for a bird)

    I’m wondering if someone has put a flyer/pamphlet similar to this one in a pet shop? What are your experiences? If you’re here from the title, this is a pamphlet I’ve constructed and I want to put it out to the world.

    Chewed screen protector (did he eat glass/plastic?)

    My bird cracked my screen on the edge and started chewing for about a minute or two on something in his mouth. Could it be glass in his mouth or just the popping noise made by his beak sometimes? Should I take him to the vet?

    crop adjustment? regurgitation? illness???

    my gcc (not sure of sex) was doing something weird today. she was furiously bobbing her head up and down with her mouth open and after awhile she spit out what i believe to be pieces of an almond she had eaten earlier. at first i thought this was probably her adjusting her crop of trying to get...

    Does you parrot sleep in your room? Out of his cage? What set up do you have?

    I’m a new GCC mom, he’s a dna tested male and his name is Pluto. He is just the sweetest. He has already bonded well with me. He tries to fly to me, loves to ride around the house on my shoulder and play in my hair, and I just adore him. He’s about 10-11weeks old.on the first night at bedtime I...

    Restless conure

    It’s my first time housing a GCC and I just recently brought him home. It’s been about 3 days and I notice that every day once it’s starts to get dark out he starts getting very restless in his cage. He will pace around and scream and won’t sit still until I take him out. He’s either pacing or...

    Help me prepare for puberty?

    Hi Avian Family! Duck is officially 7 months old as of today. She is lovable and snuggly, and an overall sweetheart. I know that puberty will hit at some point, and I’m prepared for a change of behavior (teenagers, am I right?). I’m hoping to get some insight to help me prepare for what I’m in...

    EMERGENCY!!! pest control

    I live in an apartment complex. I haven't lived here very long and when getting my conure, I was unaware that the apartment did routine pest control sprays every three months. People are trying to tell me it won't be that big of a deal because they spray just around the kitchen and bathrooms...

    Hey all! This post has no real question, or need of a suggestion or advice. I am just sitting here in bed, and my pineapple conure Duck goes to bed usually between 7:30-8pm. And I can’t help but think as soon as she goes to bed I miss her and can’t wait for her to wake up in the morning. Does...

    Conure aviary species mixing?

    So I’m in the process of converting my shed into an aviary, the shed is quite large, and I don’t doubt I could fit in my current birds (4 budgies 2 cockatiels). But I was just wondering how conures are in regards to sharing an aviary with budgies and cockatiels? I’ve been trying to do research...
