I just got a conure and Iâll admit, i was not properly prepared but I want to give her the best quality of life and her happiest days, and Iâve been doing a TON of research, and Thai channel is really really helping me and i am so thank full, Thank you!
Hey Aki, glad itâs helping!
I'll keep note for when i get a conure :)
Useful stuff here ! :P
Hello David , wish you best wishes for new year.
Thank you! Same to you :D
OK! Pickles is off the charts adorable!
Thank you! She is very cute! Some of the stuff she does gives us awww moments!
Although the other two conures do the same at times too!
I agree, with everrything you said, mine use to bite, so i target trained him and it calmed the nippy, to almost zero, he loves his training sessions and goes to were we train to let me know, it's such a great tool, i use chopstick and a clicker, works very well! He bonded at an early age, guess i did things right!! I have a big cage in the living room so he can see were we are at when he is in his cage, he's mostly out in the day and when he wants to go back in he lets me know! Lolđ¤ŁâĽď¸âĽď¸đ
Hey Carol,
Awesome way to get it more under control. A chop stick is also a perfect target stick for most birds. We use mini sticks, but many prefer chop sticks for the length!
@@TheParrotTeacher thank you!!âĽď¸đ
Another great posting.
Your Channel is so helpful and interesting.... thank you.
In case it helps any Conure or other caged bird owners, the other thing to be careful of (we nearly forgot), is to make sure even slow rotating ceiling fans, are off, before you open the cage for free flight sessions. I guess if you have had a number of birds for some time, this is a 'no brainer', but if you have just one or two, and for a short time, it's easy to overlook.
Our Billie Bird loves cuddling my eye socket while I'm sitting trying to watch tele. (Just quietly, I love it to! He/she is like a mini, 'growling', beak grinding, eye warmer. ) That said, the tip about over stimulating hormones is good to know.
Thank you Will!
That is a very valid tip. Those ceiling fans can pose a big danger to parrots if left turned on!
Adorable! Pickles still likes to do that too, but Scampi and Olive prefer cuddles elsewhere!
Like of Brasil, Beautiful Birds đŚđđ
Thank you!
Hello. After waiting a year I will adopt a green cheek. I would love a video where you can talk about how to replace pallets.
Thatâs not the worst idea video wise! We generally recommend just phasing them out and replacing them with fresh whole foods and a good dry mix!
Honestly, my conure kiwi is sooo easygoing. He doesnât really bite. We bonded the first day at the breeders location. And I was able to switch him over to chop in the am and pellets in the evening. But one thing Iâm noticing is that even though he is small he makes such a huge mess! Thanks for the vid!
Hey Tatertot!
Sounds like Kiwi is a pretty relaxed little guy! It's awesome you swapped him over to a good diet. They always do, especially the guys! Alway's chucking food about!
my conures name is kiwi too! hes a sweet lil guy. we have the same bird! lol
I have a sweet potato plant (it's literally planted sweet potatoes, it makes a gorgeous vining plant), ginger plants (planted ginger from the grocery store) & a fig tree (doesn't grow figs). Are any of those bad if my conure eats some of it? I'm loving all the great info I'm getting from your video's, thank you.
Hey there,
Ginger is fine, provided the roots coating is removed. Sweet potato again is fine provided it's warmed. I'd avoid the figs due to other parts being inedible.
Basically: Ginger root is fine is prepped. Sweet potato is fine if peeled and warmed. Figs not so much plus the leaves/bark/other bits are not to fed for all of them!
Glad they are helpful!
Nice video, just started to keep conures, I never new they could eat radish
Glad it was useful! They can have all sorts which is awesome! If in doubt though always check to be safe!
As a couple who are getting two conures in less than a month, this info is very helpful. Thank you for making these videos.
Hey there!
Glad the videos are helpful! Any ideas on what you're going to name them?
@@TheParrotTeacher I'm getting a pineapple conure and my wife is getting a high red gcc. The pineapples name is gonna be Bochica and the high reds name is gonna be Chirazh.
@@jwhite3389 Sounds good!
Cute names too! Also somewhat unique as I haven't seen many birds names like that either!
@@TheParrotTeacher thanks! We wanted to go with a South American theme. Both are names of South American gods.
@@jwhite3389 Nice! I thought I recognised one of them! I used to study/lecture in Folklore!
I could be wrong but from the breeder that I'm getting my conure from told me that I need a small cage not too small that they can't do anything in it but if it is to big they will get territorial overall great video though lots of information :)
Hey Jason,
I rarely outright say that someone is talking rubbish...but in this case, it's total rubbish.
Pickles needed a "slightly smaller" cage in that she was a rescue and intimidated by big ones. But even hers falls into the medium cage category. I would try and get the biggest cage you can. Cage size has no impact on territorial behaviour only stuff like cozy huts, excess of food and places that encourage nesting or hormonal behaviour!
I have a video on the truth about cage size along with some others that might be worth taking a peek at!
If you can try to get a medium size cage, when i said i had a big cage it's more mediumishđđ
Small cages seem more mean in my view.
Great content. If you have more suggestions on how to get your parret to eat fruit and vegetables a video about this would be great. My cockatiels love herbs and everything that is green, but won´t touch anything else.
Hey Benjamin,
Sophie has a great video on that topic on her channel (we try not to replicate videos!) so it might be worth taking a peek on there!
@@TheParrotTeacher Thanks for the suggestion, I´ll definitely check that out.
I found that damping any fruit or veggie and sprinkling chia seeds on it works. They are greatly entertained by all the little seeds popping and end up trying the veggies. I suggest starting with a small carrot slice or a single broccoli flower. Large chunks of food can scare them.
Hi...I'm new to you but I like all you say. At the moment...I have a very stressed bird. I just gave him love but..I gotta let him recover right now. I prey to God he will be ok in morning!!! I will be devastated if he's not....
Hey Jac,
If he's stressed giving him a bit of time to relax is good. I have some other videos that might be worth watching!
All of my birds are scared of veggies for some reason đ lol
Takes patience and introducing them slowly. Also mixing in some seed helps. Sophie has a vid on how to get your parrots to eat veggies!
I use to have that issue. I ground them up really fine and put in a bowl, they eat it. They love Kale.
@@redgeminiarts3674 Awesome technique to get them to eat stuff!
Piiiickles!!
đâ¤ď¸
I got ellie afyer years of research from a breeder i couldn't be happier with my hand fed pineapple green cheek years before I had a tiel that was a breeder bird an was told it be no problem taming him I tried for about a year an a half never happened this was before CZcams was really a thing but when I discovered youtube I researched for a good 3 to 4 years I bet then decided on my ellie couldn't be happier
Itâs great you did lots of research and you and your conure have a great time!
Hello, you seem to know a lot about conures. Do you think you can give me some tips? I have a green-cheeked conure, i believe to be a female. I just got her 2 days ago, today is her 3rd day with me. Iâm trying to get her to feel safe with me but sheâs always so scared! Just getting near the cage or hearing my gentle talking with her caused her to shake. Sheâs definitely stressed. She doesnât want my hand near her at all and I donât know about the choice of opening the cage. I feel as if sheâll go into panic flying around my room. She does in fact screech a lot too. I understand patience is most definitely a necessity
Patience definitely is!
I think most of the advise youâre after will be in my conure bonding videos!
Itâs really early days for you and your green cheek! It can take a while for them to settle in and relax. Itâs also good you didnât get her straight out as she needs time to adjust.
Iâd work on passive bonding (video on channel) getting her used to being in her cage and around you then move onto target training and if possible treating through the bars.
Once sheâs comfortable around you you can het her out to interact!
Could you do a video on how to get a bird to eat fruits and veggies? Mine won't. The breeder didn't feed them a proper diet.
Hey there,
I actually have one on that topic, although it's tailored towards cockatiels! Many of the tips apply to other species though.
My partner Sophie also has one on it!
What do you think about conures and dogs? Is it a good idea or keep them far away from each other? Also could we move her cage during morning and night or will this cause stress?
Hey Angelina,
We tend to say it's best to keep them apart where possible. We've seen all the cute videos, but also have seen what happens when accidents occur or one of the animals lashes out!
It is possible to do, but it can cause disruption and potentially stress. It's something to potentially trial and see how it goes! Many people have different cages, for example one for sleeping, the other for normal activity!
Nice vid. I have a young senegal. Same storyđđđť
Hey there,
Thank you!
Also does it matter if you end up with 2 males vs a male female combo? Now Iâm thinking I should get another conure
Hey there,
It depends, either way can work really well or present different issues.
Two males you won't have to worry about breeding/mating but they may get territorial or not get on!
A male/female combo you may have lots of hormones/breeding to worry about and still have the territorial or not get on issues!
Could you explain the suggestion for no bells? Seems like so many toys I purchased have bells. Is it a concern about how the noise impacts the bird or the possibility of injury/ingestion of metal parts? About one week away from getting my first conure. Wondering if I should be cutting off the bells from the toys I have.
We donât recommend bells mostly for the reasons you mentioned.
Many have the risks you mentioned and the coloured ones are often made of unsafe materials too!
The other issue with bells is the reflective surface and also potential for overstimulation and frustration!
Itâs also worth noting you can get bird safe bells with the clapper inside, but itâs upto you if youâd like to try one!
Love your work, thought pet stores are terrible I HATE people who give them ANY business.
Hey Neo,
Thank you!
I'd say that many pet stores are bad, however not all are. I know of a couple of local ones who genuinely try their best to provide good stock and good advice!
Hi, my conure loves to sit on my head and no where else. I would like it to sit on my shoulder or anywhere else other than constantly on my head. Any advice?? I do take him off my head each time but he just won't learn. He is still young so trying to be patient
Hey Karien,
That's not too uncommon for many conures or indeed other parrots. Sometimes the head can be most comfortable and also provides the highest vantage point.
If you've got him recently it's likely playing into it along with his cage.
The best solutions usually involve making sitting on other parts of your body more reinforcing. You can do this by providing treats in these other locations. You can also make it tougher to get up there, by holding your hand further away, but as he's a conure and they are very willful he may still just fly on there lol
But the best and most useful solution is training and positively reinforcing other places to sit!
Hey do you think it's fair I'm selling 2 cockatiel for 500 and a small kinda median cage and a bag of food do you think if asking for to much money?
Hey there,
Sorry, but I'm not the best person to ask on that kind of thing!
You made me want a conuređ
They are amazing birds!
@@TheParrotTeacher Y E S . Here is a list of birds I want lol:
Cockatiel
Conure (green cheek)
Zebra finch
@@87.l9 They will keep you busy!
@@TheParrotTeacher WAY too busy. I can hardly handle my 4 (I have 5 birds but one is a pigeon and she doesn't live in my home) birdsđľ
@@87.l9 Haha they can be tough to handle! It's good you care for so many already!
Do baby conures bite or chew?
Because they always ALWAYS chew or bite my hand.
Of course! They do so more because they are exploring the world and learning what they can do!
My baby crimson conure is sleeping on the ground of the cage, not showing signs of illness he's happy played with his toys etc. He'd 12 weeks old only had him 1 night will update.
Hey there,
It's not too uncommon for baby conures to sleep on the bottom of the cage. They are usually used to it from when they were with their flock mates.
If he's not unwell, eating/drinking and playing normally I wouldn't worry too much, just keep an eye on him and make it as easy to climb up and find high up sleeping options as possible!
@@TheParrotTeacher thank you
Is green cheek conure and sun or any other conure are same or do they have some slightly difference?
Hey there,
Sun conures are much louder in general than green cheeks. Golden conures have different physical traits. Other than that there are differences in behaviour and appearance mostly!
@@TheParrotTeacher can they both be feed with the same food? The baby ones
@@Jungkook-tz6pm Yes, generally their diet is very similar. Although Golden Conures are a little different.
Is that a cinnamon turquoise green cheek. I got my baby cinnamon turquoise this summer in July and he is my favorite bird. He was clipped when we got him but is moulting so I am exited for his wings.
Hey Kenna!
Scampi is a yellow sided, Olive is a turquoise and Pickles is a cinnamon!
They are adorable aren't they! That's also v.cool. When he gets them he will likely be flying about all over!
@@TheParrotTeacher I am planing to free fly train him. I also have a 3 year old rescue who finally for having her for a year is doing recall. I don't know if I would ever fly her free though
@@kenna6903 Sounds great!
My husband works at a pet store and they got 12 green cheek conures in the other day. He said each one bit him as he put them away. I said "that's how they obtain information, through torture. They violate the Geneva Convention" Lol. Poor guy came home with wounds. Ours bites ears which hurts for days after. Not fun. I need to work on training more.
Lol little conures do really enjoy nibbling!
I'd especially recommend soft targeting to help with ear biting. I have some videos covering more tips!
@@TheParrotTeacher I need to get some chopsticks.
Hey there! I rehomed a tame conure, just got him yesterday and today he does step up and all but hes really really bitey....especially with his food bowls and water bowl whenrver i offer him fold using my hands in a food bowl.
Another thing i noticed is that he hates getting touched against his will which is normal...but he keep climbing onto shoulders and head and preening my hair and its almosy impossible to get him down unless i use my hands but when i accidentally touch him at his wings he nips.
Do u have any advice for that? Hes new so advices on how i can bond with him would help alot too thank you!
He had a partner but separated when i got him, so hes a single bird now
Hey Isabelle,
Firstly I'd recommend taking a look at my videos on bonding and training! I even have one specifically about conures.
It's probably very confusing and scary for him, especially as he is used to having a friend with him. You'll need to give him time to adjust and be very patient with him.
He is resource guarding. He is protecting what he see's as important resources which is fairly common for male conures. You can work on training such as rewarding him when he is calm, redirecting him to other parts of the cage with target training or getting him to go to a perch when it's change over time.
Climbing onto head/shoulders is also normal as he wants to be high and they also enjoy playing with hair. I'd suggest target training again to help with this, so you can target him down your arm for rewards!
@@TheParrotTeacher I see thank you! Do you feel like a clicker is necessary for the training to take place or i can just reward him and he should get it
@@RiverAdale Hey Isabelle,
You can use a clicker if you like! However it can sometimes be over stimulating with conures!
It's perfectly possible to just training using a reward and verbal cue or prompt!
@@TheParrotTeacher Haha alright thank you so much for replying! Btw my conure keeps like dancing lol, im not sure if hes happy or territorial/ hormonal / overstimulated, he keeps swinging around wildly and flapping his wings, is that a sign of happiness? Sorry for the bombard of questions đ
I need help, anyone feel free to comment.
So I've moved in with my girlfriend but her conure bit me the first time I met him. I was scared of him at first but now I love him, but I can't tell if he's going to nip or bite me when I pick him up. What do I do when he's moody and how do I get over my fear of him biting me
Hey Jordan,
Regarding your fear, it'd be worth just working on safe interactions with him. Get used to him being around you and trying to ensure you don't get bitten.
From his side of things! I'd work on bonding work with you and him. This means treats, training, being around him etc. I have lots of videos on conure bonding and biting that might be worth watching!
@@TheParrotTeacher thank you. I'll for sure check them videos out and I'll bond with him. But not this second since he's soaking wet from trying to bathe in my jug of water đ
@@JordanMottram haha! Enjoy!
I got a hand feeding chick of conure but it's not so active to ask and wean for food while iam feeding him... How can I make him ask for a feed??
Hey Pranav,
That's a question for your breeder. I try to avoid giving out advice on unweaned chicks unless it's an emergency.
Keep offering and ensure the formula is correct.
@@TheParrotTeacher Thank you soo much for the reply. Iam spending my time with him and feeding him well , the thing is I have to feed him when the crop is empty. He is not asking for food, when I feed him he will eat that's what is happening.
Do you recommend me to go to the breeder and pick an active chick??
@@Pranavmanu-qr8cn I think the sensible thing would be just to ensure you feed him regularly then. I'm not sure why he wouldn't be asking.
@@TheParrotTeacher Mee too... Sometimes he will run to hide under my blanket... It seems he is a little bit scared.
I just got a very young pineapple green cheek conure female. Her name is Leeloo, she seems to not like hands very much and is very clumsy on perches and flying but she is very curious about all her new toys. They said she is 10 weeks old. She mainly wants to hide all day and doesnât want much to do with anyone. I donât want to force her so I have been letting her out of the cage and keeping my distance while in the same room and occasionally giving her food and treats. Any other tips on anything I could do to help her feel more safe and settled in?
Hey Ash!
The clumsiness will improve as she gets older! She is still very small and young! I'm not sure how long she's been in your house but she could be very nervous and need time to settle in, especially if she was part of a flock before she came to you. I'd imagine it'd be a bit of a culture shock!
What you're doing with non forced interactions is pretty sensible as respecting boundaries can help lots. I'd work on getting her used to being around you with treats (like you're doing), stepping up onto your hand or being near you. You could also try some basic target training with her as it's a useful skill and puts distance between a potentially scary hand and her.
With regards to settling, doing what you're doing with taking things at her own pace, providing treats and positive reinforcement for interactions with you. Providing plenty of high up perches in her cage for her to pick from (sleeping/resting positions), having her food/water dishes high up in the cage too could be useful too assuming you haven't already.
I'd also try to establish a loose routine asap so she knows what to expect and when + ensuring she gets lots of good sleep!
@@TheParrotTeacher Thanks so much for replying. That is some good advice and I will definitely try those things out. I have a 35â wide 62 â tall cage for her and she has a play gym on top of it where she likes to hang out, I could put some bowls of food up there for her. I got her only a few days ago so she hasnât been with me long. She was just separated from her brothers/sisters so Iâm sure itâs a big change for her.
@@Ash43509 no problems!
With the gym, if it covers the top of the cage completely (if it has a base) be careful it isnât a little intimidating! Some parrots are ok with it others find it scary!
But it sounds like youâre doing lots for her! Just take your time and enjoy bonding with her!
@@TheParrotTeacher Thanks, I am trying my best. The play gym is about half the size of the top. She seems to like it but she also likes taking it apart and removing the ladders and toys and throwing them off the top of the cage lol.
@@Ash43509 they definitely enjoy doing that kinda thing! But chewed and destroyed toys are good ones we think! (Or try to lol)
I love your little conure I have a pineapple one as well. She can be the sweetest and then she is mean mean mean. She is very attached to me, but she non stop bites me. I did everything in the book to get her to stop, but she will not. We hang out all the time. No matter what she will go grab her little toy and then run with it straight onto my lap. I love her to death, I just wish I could get her to stop biting me. Not little nips she chomps down closes her eyes and tries to take a chunk out of me. If anyone can give me advice I would so appreciate it... Ive had her since she was about 7 months old so shes been with me for about 5 months now.. Help!!
Hey Lisa,
General advice wise would be working on training with her. Target training can be good to teach softer biting and also redirect biting behaviour. I'd also be aware that conures can be exceptionally reactive to sound! We had a client who recently got bitten every time she laughed and didn't realise why! I'd also recommend looking into seeing if she is hormonal and getting enough sleep!
There are a few different causes for biting but it varies from individual bird! If you want to go into detail about it you could book a consult with our business Best Behaved Birds (Link in bio)
@@TheParrotTeacher Thank you so much for the advice. I have done that, I'll keep trying. She is a very active little bird. She is trained in doing all sorts of things so she's not bored. I am working with her. She is very smart. She can even talk a little. If I laugh she imitates me. She is otherwise so smart she even imitates my snoring when she goes to bed at night and she purrs at my cat. Maybe she isn't getting enough sleep. I do hear her in her cage calling for me and playing after being covered. She is so smart when I say her name Ireland she says what. Thank you for answering me.
@@spoiled1950
No problems!
I'd suggest changing the covering to partial covering too! Basically there's too much stuff I'd need to write to put in a comment!
I have lots of other conure related videos so they may help too!
I am looking after my daughters conure for a week in my own house. Should I leave him in his cage for the week rather than let him out as he does in his own home?
Hey there,
That would depend on lots of things! How well the conure knows you? If he knows the environment? If he is trained and will come to you when asked?
Ultimately being in the cage wonât harm him, especially if you interact often and maybe do some training through the bars (I have a video on in game training) but if itâs safe for him to come out he could!
@@TheParrotTeacher I go to my daughters house and he has come on my fingers etc but he has never been to my house. He will be in open plan living/dining room with patio window at one end and window the other. I thought I would put cage by window where he can look out into front garden and watch birds if they come on bird stand by window. Or should I just play/talk through his cage. I would be devastated if anything happened to him. We have 2 dogs & a cat plus looking after daughters 2 dogs too for the week.
@@jeanbroster6454 given what youâve said of your set up itâd be safer that he just stays in the cage.
Spend time with him, treat him and consider doing target training thorough the bars to break up his day!
@@TheParrotTeacher what is target training? Thanks
@@jeanbroster6454 do a quick search on my channel for it I have a tutorial video!
What is the problem with the pans ? I use only non stick pans
Non stick pans contain chemicals that can be harmful to your bird if you get unlucky! The fumes given off can kill them!

What to feed a baby conure?
Hey there,
You'll need to be feeding a specialist formula for baby conures. An experienced breeder or avian vet will be able to advise you on that. However, if you're new to parrots I'd suggest getting one that has already been weaned. It makes no difference to how they bond with you!
@@TheParrotTeacher if I take a normal aged conure not a baby so will that be tamed or not?
