Has anyone noticed there older conures getting cranky? I have a 22 yr old GC. We have had her for 16 yrs. I have noticed her being more cranky with my husband lately. She usually prefers him to me but lately she has been biting him more than usual and HARD. She does have a lot of new pin feathers coming in. Oh and she seems to be developing a habit if stalking my kids(small kids all under 4). I can understand her bring cranky with them because they can be wild and annoying. Plus most of her life with us had been without kids. She has been to the vet recently and everything checked out okay.

Is there anything special you do for your seniors?
Ever noticed personality changes or crankiness in your senior bird?

She has always been a little bit cranky, love able but cranky! :)
I just feel bad for my husband. She obviously gets excited when she sees him. But the biting is hurting his feelings.
Other than that seems normal, active, eating okay.
 
My oldest conure is 19 years old and I've had him for going on 7 years. Can't say I've noticed him being any crankier than he already was at 12 years old!

Well she has been kinda hormonal lately and with the feathers coming in maybe it's just too much!
