Cody-Blu, female Blue-Crowned Conure, Hatched - (approx) June 1, 2014, in a South Florida tree.

Pritti (Cherry-Head Conure) -- Fly in Peace my beautiful boy. Forever I'll love you.
Do they sleep in a hut, inside cage, special sleeping cage, on your bed, etc.?

if he is at his cage (great rm) for the night, he sleeps on top back perch next to fuzzy snuggle buddy on one side and pulls a stainless mirror with bell to his other side and sandwiches himself between them. During day, he's sleep up top or inside a hut that is inside.

If he is in my bedroom on playpen, he sleeps in this weird spot and gets very annoyed if not set up. It's a hanging wood toy that gets wedged in place under a horizontal metal bar, and he sleeps on a narrow little ledge it forms -- so strange. He has two toys that he pulls on to it and wedges them between him and a vertical post. If it isn't set up when he is ready for sleep, he gets so agitated. I'll try to post a photo to see what you think -- or if maybe it isn't weird.

My guys now sleep in a hut but when I first got Guapo they'd sleep in the top corner hanging onto the side of the bars practically on top of one another, so cute!

Louis - GCC, hatched 9.05.2012
Lou sleeps in a hut and before she used to hang on the bars or down in her cage.
And I was wondering, do you guys have a "bed time" for yor birds? Because I don't know if I should cover up Lou's cage. She seems to not like anything covering her cage but on the other hand she doesn't get 12h of darkness for sure.

American Bulldog Mix,
I don't have a conjure but my red front sleeps on her tree stand. However my last red front used to sleep in his cage on the bars, but wake up around 4 or 5 to scream his head off til my hubby should leave and sleep on the couch then he'd come down and cuddle with me in bed. Lol we tried letting him sleep with both of us but I got a nasty bite one morning and when I shrieked he gave me that sad puppy dog "That was your hand I bit?" Face. Lol he does everything he can to torment my hubby but got me instead lol

My conures sleep in their night cages half covered. I need to find one of those puppy dog things. Where did you get it, or did you make it?

Pepsi and sprite, both are American male budgies
That's so cute and freakin adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!! My birds just sleeps on their highest perch. A good way to put a cage cover without your gcc knowing is turn off the lights so it's complete darkness. Then put the cage cover on so it's dark inside the cage then turn on the lights . Hopefully the birdie won't find out. I'm thinking of getting a happy hut

It is a blanket! :D

And they're sooooo soft I'm disappointed they don't make adult sizes! Right now she's standing on his head, haha. It doubles as a perch!

Squirrel-GCC (suspected male),
Alice- female cockatiel,
Beattle- male lineolated parakeet,
No name yet- female lineolated parakeet
Dingo- male American budgie,
Darwin- male English Budgie
Squirrel sleeps on a perch under a fleece snuggle toy. Sometimes he sleeps clinging to the bars, but still under the snuggle toy. Some nights they are covered, other nights they are not. It depends on whether we stay in the living room after their bedtime. They don't seem to care.
