Rio (Yellow sided conure) sadly no longer with us
Good morning all. Everyone's favorite panicker here

I've taken a couple days to let my head settle and thankfully my biggest stress has left allowing me time to think clearly.

So I'm glad to announce I am going to try one final attempt at a conure. I've been looking at local breeders (hard to find local in england!) and have found a very nice person with a couple baby Pearly conures which he is selling for a very good price which will be ready in about a month to leave.

I was just wondering if there are any major differences between the Pearly and the green cheek. They both look very similar (although I'm finding the pearlies a lot prettier) I just want to know if they're more vocal generally and what their temperament is like, again just generally as a species. I know each bird is different.

thanks guys!

Pearly conures are just a different species of green cheek and not a mutation like the yellow sided, pineapple etc so generally they are very similar is every aspect including noise level, what you get will really come down to the personality of that individual bird. I suggest going there if you can and pick one that shows interest in you or at the very least not/less afraid of you!

aha thank you, That's helped me decide then. I find their colouring more interesting and the distance/cost is really good. £80 for a baby and less than an hour away and it's a private seller instead of a shop/business place selling them which makes me a little more confident in it

the next step will have to be the waiting and finding out a name!
