greek cheeked conure

My 3yo GCC has recently started flying away from and avoiding a family member, but he is still friendly and cuddly with the rest of us. We don't know why he is suddenly behaving like this, especially since that family member hasn't done anything to make him make him uncomfortable. Prior to the...

Hello everyone! Not my first time having birds but first time having a GCC. A month ago, picked up my GCC. Unfortunately though, my youngest sister decided to try to take my bird out of the cage without permission and the bird tried to fly out but due to unfortunately having her wings clipped...

I just recently adopted 2 baby green cheeks (about 1 month old). Recently one of them has become really loud. Always squeaking in their sleep. Specially during nighttime. They currently live in a crate until they can go to their proper cage. Like I said, one is really loud and has recently begun...

Asa is a fan of climbing on my microphone spit screen!

Hello everyone, I feel like the worst possible person alive, as I slept with my GCC and I crushed her. Her name was Honey, and I never did a gender test, but the vet said Honey acted like a female. I had her for 4 years and slept with her at night for 3. I didn't sleep with her consistently...

We got our parrot about six months ago. Now we need some advice. When we leave the house or just leave him alone for a while, he starts to get sad and cry (we heard it). We would not want him to be sad, so we are thinking about buying a companion for him. But since this is our first parrot, we...

Hello. My GCC, Roach, is going to be 2 in the summer and over the past month or so he's picked up an absolutely awful habit of biting at the bars of his cage for hours at a time. I can hear it through earplugs, through headphones, throughout my entire house and it's driving me crazy! I've tried...

Hi! I want my green-cheek's sleeping place to be in the storage room. It's the only completely dark room in the house. The problem is - there is a boiler (water heater) there and it does this low smooth constant "zzzzhhhhhh" noise. Like a long exhale, similar to the sound of a PC or a strong air...

Today I had my turquoise green cheek out of her cage and I noticed she started to make this noise. While making it I was petting her head and she was in my neck. Does this mean she wants me to stop?

Hi, I have a 10 month old Green Cheek named Sammy who cannot settle down to go to bed without fear and distress. The way we are dealing with it is sitting next to her cage, but the process of waiting to leave her until she wont startle takes between 30 to 45 minutes. She sleeps under her paper...

Well unfortunately it’s not a tropical ocean, but the Gulf of Maine/Atlantic Ocean on the coast of New Hampshire. Brought this GCC home today, and I had not intended to acquire my first bird from a national pet chain. But it was a great personality and I was displeased at the quality of its...

Hi everyone, I’ve had Joey, my green cheek Conure for 5 months now and I got him when he was 10 week old. We let him roam around the house (supervised) and he is in his cage only when we are not home or when it’s his bedtime. He has always been very friendly with everyone and definitely not...

Finally got around to setting up a little play area for my favorite girl!! Gives her something to do while we’re in my room besides trying to eat my phone and my fingers 😁 I’ll expand on it more over time! Everything is attached with Velcro and reinforced with small finishing nails

I posted back in October of how I was afraid I had to rehome my two conures, and was just asking for advice. I didn't have the heart to reply back to everyone who messaged/interacted with the thread, but I'm very grateful and definitely took everything said into account. I really tried my best...

Hi! I have a 17-month-old Green Cheek conure. His feathers are blackened on the tips quite strongly. I have read many things about what could be causing it, from diet to over-preening. I've changed his diet from mostly seeds to Roudybush Mini Maintenance Pellets, which he loves. His weight...

Hello everyone, I am currently waiting on a Green cheek conure. He/she is now 1 month old and I'm seeking advice on my initial set-up, or anything else that I need to know. I'll welcome it home in about 2 months. There were green cheeks conures at a pet shop near my place, they didn't offer...

Hello just wanted to share these adorable photos of Gru and his new bestfriend Odie🥰❤

Hi all this is my first time posting here. I know that this is a SUPER common topic but every time I find a posting about it their babies are reaching sexual maturity and are only 2-3 years old. My girl is 6 years old and, just recently, has become the most obnoxious lady in the house. To tell...

Hi guys! My name is Bhairvi and I live in Toronto, Canada. I have two birds : GCC - Ollie (my pretty princess) Cockatiel - Charlie (my handsome boy) Excited to be here! Thanks :greenyellow:

Hello everyone! I want to start harness training my 2 month old pineapple conure and I was wondering which harness I should get. I’ve heard the best is aviator but I’ve been told avianweb as well. Also any tips on how to do it or go about it? Right now when he goes places with me he rides in a...

My conure has been very quiet the last few days. She's usually very chipper and talkative, even in her sleep, but now she barely makes a noise when I leave the room. I just started a new job so I'm not home for as long as I was before so could it have something to do with that?? Or should I...
