    Conures are confusing me, please help :')

    I'll try to explain as briefly as I can, On Friday, 3 days ago, I lifted my bird cage cover to find that 1) An egg was on the bottom of the cage, and 2) we didn't have two males. I was shocked, ecstatic, and anxious. I had wanted two males to avoid this issue as I knew the health complications...

    Help! Conure terrorizing family members and guests!

    So to start this off, Millie, my pineapple green cheek conure wasnt always mean to people. I have had her for about 4 years now, and for the first year and a half she was the sweetest little angel. I could take her out to socialize with the family (with the other household pets away of course)...

    Pictures Bite pressure training is the best thing

    Can’t believe Bo has gone from drawing blood yesterday to measuring his grabs today. We’ve been playing and having scritches, he just didn’t understand the strength he has in that tiny body :cloud9: Dealt with a few painful bites today but totally worth it to teach him!

    GCC- How to make him calmer/comfortable?

    Hiya, new here so bear with!! I very recently got a GCC whom I rehomed as his previous owner didn’t have the time anymore. He’s 3yrs and 6m. I’ve had him barely a week so I’m really just looking for some vague advice as I’ve read a lot of posts but none that align with him perfectly, because all...

    Urgent Overnight stress plucking

    Hey everyone. Sprout (my 1 year cinnamon green-cheek conure) was fine last night but when I got him this morning, I found this. We've had a mouse issue lately (working on it), and we've been finding droppings in Sprout's food. We've tried moving his food bowl to different areas in his cage...

    2 year old green cheek severely acting up

    Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice regarding Chewy, my GCC. He just turned two in December, and like a month or so before it's like a switch flipped. He has been HORRIBLE. I've been doing everything I can to discourage bad behaviour and give him lots of distractions, but nothing seems to be...

    Pictures Mac becomes an iPhone!

    Mac decided he would become a handheld bird today, no longer wasting energy on perching and fully portable XD After a really good head scratch session with my hand over him, he decided to let go and curl up in my palm for even more head scratches. I swear this bird is such a nut, but he’s my...

    Marvin's 5th hatch day

    When asked what she wanted to do, she said, "view What's new on Avian Avenue", then after a few, to a toy she flew, with its bright new hue, she settled in, and began to chew. Marvin's got rhymes, who knew? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
