    International Travel with conure

    Hi! So I recently adopted a 4-month old Green cheek conure named Mango. He belonged to my friend but she couldn't take care of him so I took him in. The problem is, I need to travel to Jordan for 4 months and I want to take him with me. I booked for the 16th of August which is a little over 2...

    Young Conure always puffed

    Hi! I adopted Kiwi my GCC three days ago. He is about 4 months old. I'm worried that he may be sick. Since I am a new parrot owner, I am unfamiliar with the signs. Kiwi plays, eats and poos normally. He loves to check out what I'm eating and is very curious. But, when I seem to put him down in...

    New parrot owner, is my conure okay?

    Hi! So I adopted a green cheek conure two days ago. He is about 4 months old and his name is Kiwi. He goes to bed at 11 pm and wake so up at 11 am so he is getting enough hours. However, I share my aprtment with my roommate and he isn't constantly going in and out of his room. He makes no loud...

    Hi Guys and Gals, I'm from the UK and hopefully getting a green cheek conure sometime in the future. I've got a few unanswered questions though. Starting off, I've found a breeder, they're lovely and their birds seem bright and healthy. They've been quite busy as of lately though and have been...

    How to increase chances of conure bonding with me?

OR READ MY SOB STORY BELOW :09:]]]]]]] Hi, it's Toots here and my brother is going to get a green cheeked conure soon--he's 6 and I know 99.9 percent he's not going to provide the out of cage time that GCC's need...

    I'm new here and have a question about my greencheek baby

    Hi, I just got a 9 week old greencheek conure who is having some trouble getting used to being held. He will climb or fly to the other side of the cage when he sees me coming. If he does "step up" onto my hand, he will immediately fly back to the perch. I would like him to be cuddly and...

    My new baby Greencheek is too shy?

    I just got a 9 week old greencheek conure from a breeder who hand fed the babies and taught them the step up command. My new bird Kingsley is very good and doesn't bite, but he doesn't seem to enjoy being held at all, and when i put a hand in the cage to pick him up, no matter how slowly I move...

    GCC scared to go near me now

    Hello fellow bird buddies. My apologies if this has already been covered many times but I have utilised the search function to no avail. My little GCC has been with me for a few months now and when I first brought him home, he was hesitant to let my hand go near him but sometimes, I could get...

    Best Conure: Sun, Greencheek, or Other?

    Alright, so I've been thinking about my favorite types of birds (That I could afford) and my favorites were Conures and Cockatiels. My sister has a bit of asthma (She hasn't had an attack for 10 years, but just in case) so I've decided Conures woukld be great. And so, I ask, what's the best...

    My New Conure =D

    Hi everyone, So after much consideration and a ton of searching, I ended up adopting a rescue green cheek conure. This is Petey. He is 3 years old, and was very abused and neglected. He was hit by his previous owner and has never had anyone to trust. As soon as I saw him shaking and hiding in...

    Is a Green Cheek Conure good for me?

    Does a GCC fit in with how I live you think? I am at home most of the day so I could give it as much attention as it needs. I live in a house with 2 cats and a dog (small pomeranian)and a hamster. I can tolerate noise as long as its not constant and it cant be ear shattering loud. Im used to...
