greencheek

So, it started about 10 days ago, perfectly healthy looking feathers started looking rough a bit too fast. In a couple days they looked chopped up and I was wondering what was going on when around day 5 I finally caught him preening his shoulders/wings as far as he can reach and actually biting...

Hello everyone! I'm new here but I am hoping I can get some insight from the wonderful bird owners here :) I am trying to get some second opinions on the weight of my GCC to see if she really is at a healthy weight. Her vet told me at our last visit in July 2021 that she needed to lose weight...

Help!! I recently bought a new baby pineapple gcc three days ago. Its 8 weeks old. It was handtamed and let’s me pet it and doesn’t act scared at all. It lets me grab it. The breeder did not teach it to step up he would grab them. However, I want to teach it to step up. I try to get him to step...

My little 9 week old greencheek, Kingsley, is very shy with hands, but for some reason he LOVES hopping onto my head and rustling around in my hair- biting it, rolling around in it- just being a total weirdo in general. Why do you think this is? It's not really a problem and I'm glad he's at...
