We currently don't have a bird and recent came across a patty. Can anyone tell me how loud they are? Why aren't they so common? And do they make a great companion? Any advice would really help.

Patagonian conures from my understanding are one of the loudest, if not the loudest, conures. Which makes them very loud :lol: But I've heard that they make good companions

I know they are very hard to breed but the few people I know who own them think they're great pets.

My information comes from the time I volunteered at The Gabriel Foundation, a parrot rescue, They have a handful of Pattys.
Patagonian conures are very loud.
They make sweet companions.
I was surprised to learn they are somewhat nocturnal so their activity times are different than other parrots.

I also heard that they like to burrow into rotten trees...to find bugs to eat!
I'm trying to find confirmation of that fact...but WOW!
I actually was considering a Patty many years ago...but got a Brown Throat Conure (Mylec) instead...
