For those that have had their conures since they were babies, I'm curious about when they seemed to develop those preferences.
My partner bought a baby pineapple GCC last year, and lately she seems to have started preferring me, and even my son, over him. It may actually be an aversion to his way of handling her, and less so about bonding with a particular person, or preferring a gender, for example. I tend to me much more zen with her and give her more space, let her come to me-- he's a little grabby. He's working on it.
Be that as it may, I'm still curious about the bonding process and if there's an age it tends to start happening. I've adopted all of my birds as adults, so the process is pretty different.
