Quaker vs. Conure

[caseymayyne]

I'm thinking about getting a gcc, but the ones I held were nasty and didn't do much except sit in their cages. Then I held a quaker, and he was so adorable and funny. He didn't bite me at all. But I did hear that some quakers are horrible and develop behavioral problems fairly easily. I also heard that most conures are extremely cuddly and fun.

Which do you prefer and why?

Either bird can be nasty, just depends on how you train them! I tend to lean towards Quaker cause I've owned both Conure and Quaker, but Quaker is what I prefer. Most Conure are too noisy for me, but Quakers can be just as noisy. I miss my Quaker....
