Hi thank y’all for the warm welcome on my first thread here! I was asked for pictures so here they are! ~ Romeo my 2 year old CAG Tokyo my 1 year old GCC

I pick up a GCC on Saturday. (I've had birds before, but it's been awhile with a "bigger" bird since my Sun Conure chose his babysitter as his person. I also have 4 tame parakeets.) The breeder sent me this sneak peak and I had to share with people who understand. The human kids are...

I've bought a lovely green cheek conure yesterday! I don't know the gender yet, I should know this week, but either way I've decided to call him Romeo, so I'll be using he/him for now. He's not 2 months old yet, but he's fully weaned, although he's clearly still a baby, his tail feathers are...

Does anyone know what a hybrid between a yellow sided green cheek conure and a pineapple green cheek conure would look like?

What brands do you feed your conures? I have been feeding my green cheek Zupreem (dye-free) pellets, but I’ve noticed that when he eats these his droppings have a sour smell, and his feathers seem to develop black spots (not entirely sure it’s due to the food or something else though). Either...

Hi everyone! I made another post similar to this, but on the conure page. In the next year or so I'm hoping to get my own personal bird, so I am in no rush to make a decision. After so much research I am torn between Green Cheek Conures and Peachfaced Lovebirds. On week days I'm typically...

Within the next year or so I'm looking to get my first personal bird within a year, so no rush. For a long time I was dead set on lovebirds, because they are so sweet and I love the sounds they make. But after spending a few hours on some different threads I'm really drawn towards conures. What...

Hey guys! New to this forum :) I just got my first green cheek conure almost 3 weeks ago! Her name is Stella and she's almost 3 months old. I noticed she gets pretty noisy once I cover her. She'll mutter, lightly chatter, but when there's a small disturbance or when someone makes one small...

Hello my name is Aaron from the Chicago suburbs! I came across Avian Avenue a while back & wanted to finally introduce myself and my lovely darling bird Sprite! She's a turquoise green cheek conure my hubby and I got last September as soon as she was fully weened! She was born sometime in July...

Hey everyone, I'm writing this post with great difficulty after making the heartbreaking decision to re home my two baby conures :sad11:. I have raised them from when they were weeks old, and the are incredibly attached to me as I am to them. Unfortunately, for the past year my husband and I...

I’m looking into getting a green cheek conure pretty soon but I don’t know what cage would be best. I heard flight cages are a good choice but the thing that worries me about the flight cages is the thinness of the bars. I was wondering if GCC’s can break the bars? These are the two cages I have...

Tiny rant / Advice? I have adopted my green cheek conure and had him for 4 months now and we are best buddies in the whole world. As soon as I come home from work and walk into our room I see him bouncing up and down in his cage. BUT I want to take him out of my room cause i am sure he is going...

I was told birds are like toddlers with wings; they were not wrong. And like toddlers it is important to have consequences for good and bad behaviour. Birds scream, it's a natural part of their behaviour. They could be scared, talkative, wanting attention or displaying aggression, etc. Birds...

Just wanted to post a cute picture of my bird chu chu on my wig.

From coming from no contact with these to, to having them on my head and arm and even next to me is amazing! I got these beauties mid August and have just come leaps and bounds ever since the first month. I can't explain how much I love them and their little antics! Here's some pictures for...

Hello! I signed up for the site so I would be able to ask this because I'm at a lost since I have never worked with birds, or animals in general before. I thought if I could post here and get some advice that would help me more than trying to navigate through and find help for my situation. I...

Hello I have a green cheek conure that doesnt have his wings clipped so making him go into the cage is currently a nightmare. I leave his cage open to be able to fly in and out for food and water and he has no problem when he needs something. He also doesnt bite or anything when i close the...

Hello! A week ago I got a gcc from a pet shop (I'm in Canada), according to the seller the parrot is 8 weeks old (9 weeks now) but i have started to doubt if the age is accurate because he has a lot of pin feathers on his head which i at first thought might be baby pin feathers but i've read...

I have a 6 month old Conure. He has started screeching every time my roommate leaves the room. Until now there hasn't been any real noticeable problems with this. The last 2 days, however, his voice is all raspy/hoarse. He isn't showing any other problems. I'm just wondering if it's possible...

I would love your help and opinions on which bird I should get! The three choices are Sun Conure, a GCC or a Quaker parrot. I am experienced and know everything about what a bird lover and owner should. Setting : I live in a rather large house and have had a ringneck and I did not think that...
