Should i be worried about my Sun Conures behaviour?

Chili · Aug 6, 2012

lol i know this may be a silly question but i have had her for a year and she has NEVER bit me... she will taste nibble but never bite!
She is very well behaved when she is squawking i will just gently clam her down with a few words and she will stop for hours and continue on playing? She seems like a happy bird healthy diet a lot of toys big cage (not that she ever spend much time in there other than sleeping and eating) she will very often make a noise like reeehhhh kind of growl ... she will growl when she is happy or annoyed or eating ... just anything she will be like reehhh (if that makes sense?)
Am i just lucky to get a well behaved bird or is there some sort of anxious/scared behaviour happening? I am a very paranoid bird mother lol sorry!! :orange:

I have only had my Sun for a couple months and he was 1 1/2 when I got him and he is very well behaved as well. Yes I think we are lucky Sun owners. He can be loud but doesn't screech that much at all. Has never bitten us hard. Just nibbles. He will make a funny sound as well. Almost like a growl or a hiss and sort of a quick head jerk.....like a dog would do sort of. Not an aggressive gesture but does it for different reasons. We are lucky to have well behaved birds.

I have never spent a lot of time with a Sun, but my GCC often makes a noise I identify as a purr, but it could also be interpreted as a growl. In his case it is a happy sound.

The other thing that can sound a bit "growly" is beak grinding, which is usually also a sign of contentment or sleepiness.
