Hello! I just found out I am getting young weaned Green Cheek Conure in 2 weeks! I was going to get a Lovebird (hence my name), but something about the GCC's kept calling to me...i love how they look like little hawks. Their facial expression just melts me!
ANYWAY, here is my question: the breeder is DNA'ing his 4 babies, and he wants to know if I want a boy or a girl? When i planning on getting a LB, I definately wanted a boy. But what about the GCCs, do the females get as hormonal and crabby as the LBs do? Or does it just depend on the bird's personality? Would a boy bond better with me, since i'm a female?
This will be my first bird, so I want it to be a good experience. I want to be the best birdy mom I can be! I told the breeder I didn't really care, as long as the bird seemed to like me when we first meet. I was planning on letting the bird pick me. But now im wondering if a male would be easier..?
What are your thoughts?
