- Signs of a happy conure !
The old video needed an update as conures have so many ways of showing us they are content/happy!
It's also a test for new editing software and a new approach to my videos including overlays. I hope you all enjoy it.
My apologies if I repeat "content" and "environment" lots it's been a trying day!
As usual I have examples from my own flock, with all our conures showing up in the video rather than me just telling you!
Any comments or if you have other questions feel free!

My favorite is turning into a little fluff-balls, foot tucked up and beak grinding all at once. Love this soooo much.
I think that's one of my faves too. Fluffed up and cuddly lol
Bird charging station
the foot tuck is the cutest. Love seeing Louis & Kipling! Pickles has the pretties pastel colors. I want a conure so bad but dont have the space right now. Someday! 🥰 xoxo Adara from atieloftwobirbs
Thank you! We are trying to get more footage of them now they are settled in better!
They can be a handful but are so cute.
My conure has all these signs 😊❤
Awesome!
I love all the clips so much! so much cuteness T _ T I believe birds bump up their annoying behaviors just to compensate the cuteness haha
Thank you! They do lol
My conure was a rescue . I've had him since February. He let's me pet him thru the cage bars mostly. Hopefully he will become more cuddly. He will preen me here and there. I've taught him how to forage, sit on my shoulder if I give him treats. He is so sweet. I hope some day he will cuddle into my neck but he's still a nervous little guy. I love him with all my heart ❤️
Starting with through the cage bars is such a good way to begin allowing petting/contact. He likely will be!
Just keep at it, I'm sure you will with the efforts you're already putting in!
Um one is enough. He snuggles and cuddles giving soo much body heat. I am blessed ❤
Cool!
I just love looking at your birds I enjoy your messages and I'm very excited and GRATEFUL 🥰💟💟💟 THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT WONDERFUL FRIEND TO THE BIRD'S AND TO THE COMMUNITY
Thank you Donna, that's very kind of you to say. Both me and Sophie strive to make a positive impact on the parrot world!
@@TheParrotTeacher and you both do an amazing job thanks so MUCH
Im going through a moving prosess right now and was scared my conure is getting stressed, but seeing this i realize i'm the stressed one,🤣my conure seems as happy as he can be ☺
They can be very adaptable! We often get more worried than them lol
My baby boy is always happy
Awesome!
Aaweeee my Conure she does what i call.. wing stretch.. and with her foot tucked under the stretched wing. Then she makes this cute quiet little sound . Shell stand on my forehead and preen and sit and stretch and for hours 😀🦜🦜🦜. She also talks ! Unusual people tell me. I love it. Thank you for your videos
Very cute and you’re most welcome!
Soo CUte 🥰 thankss
Head-bobbing is another one.
Nice video - helpful.
Glad it was useful! I have more on them on the channel!
Mine is doing all of this happy stuff he plays around the room little chirps not alarm chirps but just simply having a blast and after doing that for awhile messing with things likes to come cuddle .and at night especially. we have a routine with bed time an hour or cuddle time sometimes two depending on how tired I get lol hes a cute little bird
Sounds like lots of fun for you both!
happy conures are the cutest
For sure!
Why did i read the title as “sins your conure does” 💀
I mean they do plenty of those lol. Maybe I should do a video on that!
😍😍😍😍thanks🙏🙏🙏 🙏🙏❤❤❤
Welcome 😊
The Conure my family has likes to cuddle in me and my fathers beards/my long hair aswell or cuddle on my chest
They can really enjoy that kind of thing!
Muy buen tip
Thank you!
My conure always flies onto my shoulder and does a belly crawl under my left jawline as soon as I get home and let them out of the cage but he never goes to under the right side and then he will cuddle for ten whole minutes until he gets his food fresh fruits and veggies.
He likely misses you when you go out and is happy to have his flock mate home!
@@TheParrotTeacher that's probably what he's telling me when he does that and flicks his wings and does a buzz noise at me.
One of my conures grids the beak once i cover the three amigos. I'm not sure which one, but it does last for 10 to 15 minutes till finally dozing off.
It’s always such a nice sound!
love the cowboy bebop painting!
Thank you, it’s a classic anime!
My green cheek cuddles so much but when I take him off to put him in cage he gets mad and tried to cling to my hand I wonder if I cuddle with him to much and that’s why he’s doing that
It’s possible, it’s also possible that going back in the cage isn’t fun enough so he just doesn’t want to!
I have 2 green cheeks (one cinnamon mutation, one 'high red') that are totally bonded with each other. They both display all these behaviors with me yet the high red cuddles and the cinnamon bites (my right arm looks horrible with all the scars from her bites)! The cinnamon will chat, beak grind, fluff up, even fall asleep sitting on me but will randomly lunge at my face or hand ( hand sitting still, not actively reaching) and I'm so confused! Have had experience with multiple breeds of birds as my mother was the owner of a sanctuary, never have I met a bird that bites like this!
Hey there,
It’s not uncommon for conures to bite for lots of different reasons even when they are happy or even bonded to us!
The solutions to biting usually come from working out why it’s happening and adjusting factors such as diet/ doing lots of training!
I have lots of other videos that may be worth exploring!
When green cheeks knock on the cage, is that hormonal? My two turkeys respond when I knock back; sometimes the exchange is reciprocated many times. I try to change the tempo with the knocking, but they give me the puzzled look.
I’m not sure I’d call it a hormonal behaviour per say. It’s normally excitement, territorial or overstimulated!
I just got a 3yo female who had her top beak completely bitten off by bigger bird when she was 7months old, she's malnourished so I'm feeding her pureed baby food bc she has struggled to just survive on seed!!! Incredible really that she did.
Hey there,
That’s such a harsh thing to happen to her :(
It’s really good you’re helping her out! But one thing, I would not recommend the baby food.
If you have to do that puree fresh veggies and proper nutritional boosting food. It may be worth talking to an avian vet on the topic!
Why not the baby food? It's no sugar just organic pure. I am taking her to avian vet appointment next week ❤
Mostly because it probably needs more than that! But it’s awesome you’ve organised a vet visit and taken them on!
Thanks.Mash banana etc, I've also ground to powdery texture, oats, sunflower kernels, macadamia walnut and peanuts, she won't eat. Hoping vet can make prosthetic beak 🤞She still eats tiny seeds slowly . Better than she was anyway, trying my best, appreciate ur knowledge v much 🥰
Sounds like you’ve really given her a good home! 💗
My conure will cuddle in my hand and is willing to sleep in my hand
Very cute!
I can't wait to get conures they are way too cute! but I have a question, can I have conures AND parakeets? I have some
You can, but they’d need to be kept separately initially and then introduced slowly. They’d likely always need to be caged separately too unless you have a bird room or large aviary!
@@TheParrotTeacherok thanks!
Ok I noticed he tucked one foot way up to the point I couldn't see it and I was worried
The tucking is totally normal!
I got a conure from a lady. Hes 12 . He finally has warmed up I think . He will come up to the cage and talk to me and he will allow me to pet him but he’s a little nippy at first but when I pet him he sinks down on his perch and won’t step up so I guess he’s
Not ready to do that with me ?
It’s tough to read from your description. Conures can be nippy sometimes. But if he’s nipping when you go to pet him then he may be telling you “I’m not too comfortable with this yet”
Hi! I love your videos and information. My green cheek conure’s enclosure is next to a window. Lately, a wild dove has been coming by the window and communicating vocally and by flying while chirping. I was wondering if you have any information about what this relationship might be. My bird seems to enjoy the interaction, but I’m unsure if it’s stressing him out. He gets excited, vocalizes, and pulls on his toys when the dove comes around. Any thoughts? Thank you!
It sounds like he could be stressed by it! I know our flock don’t like the doves much.
Some parrots will be ok with wild birds approaching and curious, most will be stressed by it!
Thanks for the videos! Why do they make that super cute sound? Is it from cockatiels? Do you have any advice for me- I hope I didn’t get a bird that doesn’t like me. I got a gcc a week or two ago and he’s pretty scared of everything. His wings are clipped. Should I just let him be and take his time? I don’t know if I just keep doing that or what. He’s 3 months or so so very much on the younger side
Hey there,
Have you seen my videos on conure bonding and looking after them?
You can absolutely form a relationship with him but it does take time!
@@TheParrotTeacher Thank you! Yes I have, but I'll watch again. He came out around the bar onto my figure to get a treat!!!!
were you birds hand raised? thanks for the videos!
Some were some weren’t! Our cockatiels were, some of our conures were others weren’t!
@@TheParrotTeacherthank you :)
I have a baby green check like 3 months old . Is it normal for them to lay on their back or sleep on their back?
It isn’t unusual for some green cheeks to lay on their back! Sleeping is a little more unusual but if they are healthy in every other way it’s likely fine!
I have a nanday conure. She doesn’t talk at all . Can you tell me if all nandays talk?
Some will copy vocals others won’t! It really depends on their individual personality and how much reinforcement talking gets them!

Haha thank you!
My conure sorta gives me love bites on my face when cuddled up❤ but he absolutely hates my husband and attacks him on a regular basis. Should I stop cuddles and just let him sit with his fellow conures to prevent those attacks?
There’s two issues there! It’s ok to cuddle your conures a bit but I would discourage beaking as it can lead to biting.
The attacks on your husband could be due to hormones, possessiveness or the little guy may just need more training and time with him!
I have further videos that explore some of those topics!
Help me. Why does the greencheck parrot usually escape in the dark or corner ? 😢
If I understand you right it’s either scared or hormonal!
I have a 2-month-old pineapple conure, he/she is still on hand feed, and has all the happy signs but it screams every 1-2 seconds constantly till the time I don't put him back into the brooder. Even if the crop is full or half, the scream won't stop. Is it because he wants to have another bird with its surroundings? how to stop the constant scream. As long as its inside the box its all fine, the moment it feels im in the room the scream starts. I mean very playful n all but everything comes with this scream lol..is it okay to raise a single conure?
It’s likely because it wants feeding and attention. They are flock animals so will cry out for other members of the flock or you if they consider you a provider.
It’s a tough call. We always say that a bird is better off with another of its own species but it depends if you can accommodate that!
My conure is always getting irritated what should i do
Find out why and see what you can do differently!
It’s a bird there dinosaurs
Yes!
My gc chico, an excellent talker btw, goes into my top cupboard with door almost closed, and he talks away for hours
Clearly likes his chatting!
What does it mean when your conure likes beak rubs ...
Hey Alison?
Do you mean they like their beaks being rubbed? That can be a friendly thing, or if constant could be a "mating" behaviour!
It's not uncommon!
whats preening
Maintaining feathers! Their version of cleaning and body maintenance bascially!
@TheParrotTeacher does that mean they pluck feathers or is that sometimes a stress response
Feather plucking is something totally different! And can be caused by stress.
It’s almost not to be confused with moulting where feathers will come out naturally!
@TheParrotTeacher ok, because my new guy was pulling out a few but not crazy just a couple and I worried, being a first time bird parent
