- Pico, gender unknown, is a hand-fed Yellow Sided Green Cheek Conure, born 2015.
Pico is. (Actually I am the one who is trained.)
I've noticed that he poops about every 10 minutes so we've gotten into a cooperative rhythm.
If he's on me, or a place I want to keep clean, about every 10 minutes I'll use a portable perch to move him to his stand perch which is over newspaper.
He'll make his bank deposit immediately.
Our success rate is around 95%, so occasionally I'm gifted a shoulder decoration. :56:
He doesn't sleep in his cage because I don't heat that part of the house at night.
He sleeps in an aquarium in the heated bedroom. (No water in the aquarium )
Since he never poops there/then, that first morning poop is a whopper!
He must do that on his stand perch before he's allowed into bed for our morning 15-minute cuddle session, which Pico loves so much.
... and yes, the house has been warmed up before Pico leaves the bedroom.
What is the frequency of your conure's charitable contributions?
PS, aquariums as beds can't be beat for containing bird mess.
