Back in 1999 when I was a teen I found a semi tamed conure in my grandfathers mango tree one day and tried to befriend him and fed him mangos but he was skittish and took a bit but he took some mangoes from my hand. Then when I was going to leave him and head back into the house he flew onto my shoulder and became my best buddy after that. He looked like a green cheek conure but had a little bit of red around and on his tail feathers. He was such a derpy and fun feathered friend. And I’d take him outside all the time to eat mangoes and fruits from my grandparents trees. The instant I called him he would fly right back to my shoulder. His name was “Buddy”. I miss that little dude. He passed of old age I believe, had him for over 8 years and I assume he was already pretty old when I first found him.
My beautiful pineapple green cheek named peach recently passed away, she was such a sweet girl and is missed greatly. In memory of her I rescued a Jenday conure yesterday. He was abused by his previous owners so he’s still really scared but will take treats from my hand and accept head scratches. His name is mango 🥭
Awww💕 bless your heart! So sorry for your loss of Peach 😥 & welcome to a better home and life Mango, hope my video are helpful for you! Cheers💖
How could someone abuse a conure? Send me their address, I’m gonna give them a piece of my mind 👊🏻
Recently, one CARELESS friend of mine bought a Pineapple Conure as a baby and now is not able to give time. So gave it to me, as I am an animal person. But I had experience with rescuing local birds which I released after they grew up. Which I couldn't with conure because they are from South America. I already have a cat and tortoise. Not to mention I have a small apartment. I don't want to keep a bird in an apartment for his life time. And life recently got a little busy. I want to ask, if you or anyone from South America wildlife that could help me....
I know it is a big ask, but can any animal enthusiasts be able to take him from my country and maybe release him in the South American jungle or at least give him a better life.
my turquoise cheeked conure likes to say, "What are you doing?" and "I am your baby bird."
That’s soooooo cute!!! 🥰 I’ve been trying to get Mia to say “mama” because it would melt my heart 🥹🥹
If I held my conure like that, I'd for sure be attacked lol.. my conure, Tiki, is my best bud. I can't even imagine life without him ❤️💛💚
I have a cinnamon cheeked conure and she is named mango. She likes to mimic sniffing sounds, clicking sounds, and kissy sounds
Cute!❤
Watch at speed 1.25. Con-ure welcome
My conure mimicks my head roll while saying " wonderful "
My turquoise gcc can say “i love you” to me, give me kisses, and make clicking noises. He’s so sweet!
That’s so adorable! I would melt if Mia said I love you to me 🥹🥹 have a clawsome day💛
I am not a bird person, but I was gifted a Cinnamon Green Cheek. I got Mango a week ago and I’m so excited to bond and learn from him. I’ve been watching videos to learn from the experts and came across your channel. Great videos!
Aw cinnamon green cheeks are so cute ☺️ I am sure Mango will turn you into a bird person🥰 our Mango did it to us!❤️
I also have a bonding video 🙂 ua-cam.com/video/W2OQ03k0bBI/v-deo.html thanks for stopping by the channel 🤩🌼
That's how I started too. You'll learn and bond with that lil cutie. Just don't give up cuz I know a lot of ppl who have.
It would be a great addition! While watching this video I’m driving to go get my little Everest right now! Eek so excited!
I have 2 green cheek conures whenever she attempted to talk she sounds like "gullom" of lord of the rings.
Our green cheek mimics is sneezing, couching, and laughing.
Awww!🥰 Mango mimics my sneezes and Mia mimics my laugh 😆 they are so funny arent they!🙂
I have a Pineapple Conure named Louie - but I mostly call him Buddy. He has some curious behaviors for sure. He dances around my Keurig with his tail feathers spread out when I make coffee in the morning. He can say 'Hey Cutie! and usually says that when I take him out of his cage in the morning. He's a GREAT companion as I live alone but I work from home so he gets a lot of attention. He was quite nippy when I first got him about a year ago, but he is slowly outgrowing that. Love your videos!!!
Aww, it was actually a pineapple conure that made me fall in love with parrots! 💖😊 Louie sounds like a cutie himself!! Thanks for sharing ☀️ & for the love! 🥰
I just lost my beautiful green cheek a month ago and am still heartbroken, kiwi was a sweet loving bird who loved absolutely everyone and simply want to be in company and loved. We are getting two baby turquoise conures in three weeks and we are very excited to welcome them home🥰❤️
So sorry to hear about your loss🥺😢😔 I am sure Kiwi will be forever missed🤍. On a happy note yay for baby turquoise conures, baby conures melt my whole heart ❤️😍🥹
To be aware: Stores like PetCo will sell something called fancy green cheeks and me and my parents bought the conure and named her kiwi. When I took pictures of kiwi it showed her as not a green cheek conure but a black capped conure (aka a rock conure status: endangered) which means that she is not a green cheek but she is indeed a conure. Make sure to do research and maybe look up conure type lists if you are confused of the type of the bird
Thank you for sharing, it’s good to research the types of species as you mentioned because petsmart does the same thing they label them as “fancy” and will sell you a green cheek, black capped, crimson bellied or sun conure as “fancy” 😔
I just got my sun face baby and I’m so in love. Your videos help so much ❤❤❤❤
😀❤️😍🙌🏼
Thank you for your vids, i love mia cos i have one just like her ❤
Glad you enjoy the videos and Mia!🤗
My parrotlet doesn’t use her foot to eat but she uses my sun cheek’s foot to eat from. LOL
😅😅
I have a green cheek conure…best parrot ever. Thanks for the fun facts 🥰

I have a female turquoise yellow sided and a Sunday Conure! Love your videos!
That’s so awesome!🦜🦜😊💛 thank you!
I have a green cheeked conure. Thus helped a lot!

I have a sun Conure and he just turned a year old. He mimics what happened and what’s up in Spanish also mimics my sneezes.
Mia also turned one this year!☺ What's your sun's name? That's so cute; que paso ☺ Mango and Mia both also mimic my sneeze 😅 they must love those sounds
My conure mimics me calling his name lmao
Mia does the same thing!😂😀
I have a sun conure and he mimics quite a few things like laughing, other birds like Australian Magpies, zippers, plugging in my phone, kisses and probably other things I can’t think of now.
That's so funny! They are really good at mimicking😀
Hi! My black capped Conure is named Rubie Raine. When i come home i say Hi Rubie or Rubieeee, well on the past few weeks she now says hi Rubieeee 🤗 💕🎉 and sitting on her porches at the window to passer byers🥰
That’s really cute 🥰
We found each other 3 months ago, challenging at times as first time for me as a birds human. nonetheless we're good and enjoy your video as well as 1 podcast episode 😉
@@user-mx4yd3po4i there’s lots to learn with parronting, the parrot podcast episodes are great resources to learn more❤️🎙️

I just bought a green cheeked yesterday, and I am so in love with this bird. I had one in the past a couple of years ago and we had an unbreakable bond. Sadly she passed when I went on deployment. 😢 Here I am 10 years later with my brand new conure, and I plan on breeding and pairing her up with another conure. My question is which conure can I cross-breed with my Green cheeked?
I have 2 yellowsided green cheek conures named Rudy and Kirby. Kirby is a year younger than Rudy and mocks Rudy with his whistles.
They sound so sweet 🥹☺️ that’s really cute! Thanks for sharing 😊
I have a beautiful female, 9 year old, black-capped conure named Henrietta.❤
Very cute! Love black capped conures♥️
Is a high yellow conure the same as a golden conure?
I have two green cheeked conure and it laid eggs
Did you get baby birds
Love your channel! I have a yellow sided green cheeked his name is Merlin and he is all the things you said and more he's 8 years old and love of my life I am 58 years old and disabled so he and I are pretty good partners and I have three cockatiels as well poppy Rocky and Mama
Thank you!❤️ Aw Merlin and your tiels sound like great companions! Cheers!
I have a blue crown conure who makes fun of the dogs when they sneeze by mocking them.
I owe a conure and a standard poodle. I'm in pet heaven!
Cute! We have similar pets ☺️☺️
@@PoodlesandParrots We do. I don't have time right now but I have a few conure questions to ask that I can't find answers to by any research I've done. I'm glad to have met you and will be reaching out. Pet love RULES!
Should you give your conure a lot of toys 8:40 🦜💚
Please help me with my Conure green cheek. I've tried a lot of ways to get him to step up on my finger or arm. He runs from me if I attempt. He gets happy when he sees me , he was In a pet store for 6 months before I bought him. I don't know what to do to help him trust me? Any suggestions would help so much. Plus I can't get him to eat or even try veggies
You need to respect your birds boundaries and not force step up. I included more in my other reply but here’s also a video on how to get your bird to eat more veggies : ua-cam.com/video/MGyN4F8sY1s/v-deo.htmlsi=ap2KdPv4kfmSEBrc
I have a Sun Conure. Her name is Willow and will be a year old in September. I literally had no idea that suns were endangered. She is a weirdo, says her name, up up and what what. But she mimics me when I do beeps sounds. Lol
Glad the video was informative 😊 Willow sounds like a cutieeeee pieeeeeeeee! That's all so cute! I would love Mia to say "mama"🥰 she mimics my laugh and sneezes haha 😅
Poodles and parrots! I have a big question.. I'm currently buying all the necessities for my soon to be pet Conure bird! The person I'm trying to buy it off keeps saying that all the cages I've found are no good to a small / medium sized parrot like a Conure bird. He is insisting I buy a 50cmx50cmx70cm cage of him with 1.5cm gap spacings. In the situation I'm in, I understand he is the professional, but after all the research I've done I feel like I'm getting scammed? The cages I've found are 65cmx65cmx80cm with 1.3cm gap spacings. I would rather put my trust into you because you are someone I look up to. So where am I going wrong? Or am I being scammed..? (both cages are stainless steel)
Sure! Let me start with suggesting this video I talk about the cage brands and some places to buy good cages from ua-cam.com/video/T2Jo1I5XVPw/v-deo.html usually when someone wants you to buy something they will tell you what they need to so that they can convince you! If you don't feel good about it's probably not a good option - trust your gut!! I would always recommend the bigger one with the small bar spacing. Our cage for reference is 10mm/1cm bar spacing and the size is 96 x 58 x 167 cm. We worked our way up to this size but started with what our budget allowed for with the biggest we could get. Conures are very active and need to space to play, climb, stretch, explore. Hope this helps you! I also have a blog on this; poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/tips-for-choosing-the-right-cage
I just got a baby cinnamon conure. He's all over me I've had conures before so I was aware of that. He eats with me and loves bathing. The only thing with conures is that they are very nippy. Especially young. Right now I have marks on my neck ears, and of course fingers. Any tips on how to get him slow down with this habit ?
Nipping is indeed a common behaviour in young conures... a few quick tips would be positive reinforcement, gently redirecting his attention to a toy or activity, consistency, avoiding "rough play" or overly stimulating your conure, watch for triggers, socialize your bird, be patient and build trust! I have a whole video dedicated to biting I recommend!☺
@@PoodlesandParrots thank you
I live in the uk just researching these cause i have parrotlets and budgies but i wouldn't mind a conure😁❤❤
Conures are cuties! And there’s so many birds always looking for a good home 🥺🥺 . I have loads of videos on conures, feel free to explore😀
My green cheek conure Uses his one of his bells to hit the cage in order to let us know he wants out
also his name is bird bird lol
That’s cute! Just be careful with bells 🔔 and bird toys because they can be dangerous for birds like bird bird🫶🏼
Do I need cites paperwork if traveling from state to state?
Cites is required when traveling internationally- from country to country.
I have a green cheek 💚🦜 named Charlie 💚🦜 0:36
Cute! Say hello to Charlie for me😀😀
My conure parrot pumpkin pie is the name is there any way I can determine if he is a male or female
For conures you would need to do a gender test with your avian vet
I have two budgies Lemon and Blueberry that are absolutely adorable when they're being naughty. They're currently shredding a tp role tube making a huge mess under their play gym lol. I love these little birbs. ❤️
Someday I'd like to expand my flock to include a green cheek conure or two perhaps so I'm researching up on them too. In anyone's experience with these birds, would you recommend always getting them in pairs, or is it fine to have just one bird to bond with? Keeping budgies I've always kept multiple because they're just so social and prefer their flock with other budgies. I just don't want him to feel sad or lonely if I get a green cheek in the future. Someone help she'd some light on this is much appreciated. 🥺
Those are really cute names!🥰 if you’re thinking about expanding your flock I don’t think you HAVE to get them in a pair but if you would like to; you can! A green cheek Conure could bond and flock with your budgies as well. I’ve seen many flocks in homes with conures & budgies - you could also check out Elle and the birds (she also has both plus more!). We don’t find that Mango or Mia have ever displayed behaviours of feeling sad or lonely, they also spend a lot of time with us 😀🥰 hope this helps!
We have two budgies and a conure
They just love to have fun all together
Flying through the house together
But definitely the conure is different in character
She imitates my chuckle and laugh
The budgie imitates the conure call
She insists on joining us for mealtimes and eats also from the male budgies mouth
God's blessing in these birds characters who just love to love
@@susannacleur5177 that’s so cute! Thanks for sharing and being so helpful!💖
In india , pakistan, Bangladesh sun conure is the most common conure now a days after pineapple
Too much breeding going on
I bought to conures a male and female. They love socializing with all. If you pick up one you get both. I’m trying to socialize . They are 3.
They love each other. They went t
In heat and he turned on me, sharpened his beak fluffed his feathers and would jump out and bite me And mean it!
I took out the box and seemed like a black bean was in it.maybe his baby. Chewing the housing boo. Mia.more my female likes to sit on my cockatiels cage.. harharmlesslee. Can they be friends. The cocktail would rather bite me know one ever worked with him. He lost his other male mate after 10 years. Trying to work with him. Can this work with my female contour.
I love 💞 you ❤️ Mia 💚🦜 4:22

What's the best way to win the trust of a conure?
Go at the birds pace, don’t force interactions, never use punishment and use bonding tips ua-cam.com/video/W2OQ03k0bBI/v-deo.htmlsi=hXiVur1UhUY-8URg
In this episode Mimi also shares her bonding tips ua-cam.com/video/Pqh0gXtZtLM/v-deo.htmlsi=0xdMFk_Npsy5wLP8

You never mentioned if Conures can learn to speak words.
They definitely can! but they are not known for their talking abilities they are very good at mimicking though. There are a lot of conures who’s owners share they can say several words but there are also a lot who don’t learn any words. Our Mia can say one: her name 😆 and Mango doesn’t say any words but mimics a lot!
My black capped has a very good range of language he says thank you hi ilove you stop it unfortunately he also pick up a bad word he says a55hole kisseshis name and my babyand screams for my daughter
Wow that’s awesome! Oops to the bad words haha! I am still hoping that Mia will someday start saying I love you🥹😫🥰
It’s depressing that the reason why they are endangered is because people get them as pets… leave them in the wild!!!
Sorry..using a bird as a pointing object.
Nooooo.and
I'm out of here.
Byeeeee 👋🏼😀🙂
Sorry hate to be the vocab nazi but habitat not habit
