    First Parrot

    Hi! I will be getting my first cinnamon turquoise green cheek conure next month. I've never had a parrot before. I own ducks, turkeys and a lot more farm fowl but I am new to the parrot world. Any advice is much appreciated

    Question about falling

    So I've successfully managed to tame and bond with my GCC after around a week, and i've been taking her out of the cage for around 1-2 hours a day ever since yesterday (i did take her out for a little bit two days ago, but that was more just me petting her, not really letting her play around)...

    First week with GCC, would appreciate some advice!

    So it's been a little under a week since i've brought my new GCC home. She's been very polite and sweet, and i've already gotten attached to her, but i would appreciate some advice from the experts on this amazing forum! I looked online before getting her and i was told that it typically takes...

    Question

    Hello! I recently posted a few days ago about my baby conure, and I was really happy with how many responses I got, and they were all helpful, so I'm going to be posting here when I have questions, and I've got another today. So far today, my baby hasn't been wanting to sit on my shoulder like...

    Is this playfulness or aggression?

    Hello! I'm a new bird owner and I'm in the process of learning what all the sorts of my baby (2 1/2 months old) green cheek conure's behaviors mean. There has been a few occasions where she'd get real low and spread her wings up, while making what I see as angry(?) noises while biting towards my...

    Montana bird rehome

    Looking for a reputable rescue in surrounding states. I live in Montana and have two green cheek conures needing to be rehomed but I'm quite picky and was looking at rescues in Idaho, Utah and Washington state. Does anyone have info on a great rescue? Thank you

    beak size?

    um, weird and somewhat random question: do different mutations within GCCs have different beak sizes? i’ve noticed that Spunky (my pineappale) has a larger beak than Ollie (my turquoise) - is this my eye tricking me? or maybe its because one has a lighter coloured beak? google didnt help much...

    Should I get my conure a friend?

    Hi :) I had two green cheek conures, Rio and Coco. Unfortunately, Rio passed away around three weeks ago, leaving Coco by herself. Rio was a very quiet bird who enjoyed being with Coco. He was not fully trained and was quite scared of humans, so he would always follow Coco around the house and...

    Sudden Biting Behavior

    My green cheek Pina came to me very sweet and very snuggly. Snuggly part and sweet part hasn't faded at all, but now she has a problem with biting. I'm trying to do everything possible to make it better. Sound aversion, distraction with target training and removal. Unfortunately she continues...

    One pluck, two no pluck

    I have two green cheek conures. One is Rico, who is almost 2. Pina is about 10 months right now. So, Rico never plucked when I got him back in december. He was lonely during the day when I was at work so I introduced him to his partner, Pina. They love each other very much (playing, eating...
