    Conure Chattering?

    My Yellow-Sided Conure: Daenerys has always made this chattering sound since the day we rescued her. If I had to compare it to anything: It sounds like a quieter version of an angry Donald Duck. None of my other Conures make this sound, not even her cage-mate: Shades (Greencheek.) Is this...

    Suddenly doesn't like fresh food

    Mercury for the past week hasn't been the happiest eating fresh foods. I'm a little confused about it since he was eating well for so long, I stopped giving him fruit everyday (low sugary fruits) and now he barely touches his food. He'll eat pellets and forage for treats but refuses veggies and...

    Aggressive Abused Conure

    I have 9 birds in total, all rescues: 4 Budgies, 4 Conures and an African Grey. October, last year, I rescued 2 of my 4 Conures: A male and a female Greencheek, both 6 years old. They had no names when they were turned in, which I found odd that someone could own birds for 6 years and never name...

    Cooking with my Green Cheek Conure

    Good evening everyone, I'm taking a lot of time to reflect on what I could have done wrong with Peaches (Rip Lovie) I've been cooking with Blue Diamond cookware and I was wondering if this is safe. It's ceramic and nonstick but claims there are no toxins used. I would LOVE some links to...

    Conure going crazy

    This is my first post on the forum, so I apologize for breaking any rules if I do with this post. I'm new to this whole forum thing. I have a golden conure, about 10 months old and she does not want to be in her cage. When I put her in there, whether it be at night (around 8-9 pm) or if I am...

    How do I hand train a conure that likes to bite?

    Hello! My black capped conure is my second bird ever. My first bird was hand fed, so he was very easy to handle right away. Dash, however, was in a questionable pet store before we decided to get him, and has damage in his tail feathers. He is surprisingly very quick to come up and greet me for...

    help! leaving Conure for extended time

    Hey all I have a crimson belly Conure who I’ve had since he was 3 months old, and he’s been with me for about a year and a half. In this time the most I’ve ever been away from him has been the occasional overnight stay during which my parents looked after him (they also have a bird so they put...

    Video Normal behavior or Unique behavior?!

    Hello! Today I found two unusual behaviors for my bird. The first is that when I touch his head and cheeks, he seems to like it, but acts to vomit. I don't know what that means, so I'm thinking about stopping to touch him. Secondly, today, my bird was holding one leg on the cage and his eyes...
