  • Hello everyone! I finally changed the lighting in my room so the weird yellow tint in my videos is gone yay!
    If you are considering getting a sun conure this is a video of what to expect,
    Basically cons are they are loud, bite is really nasty, pros are they are cuddly and nice
    I personally love having a sun conure she is so cute and if you can handle the noise level they are definitely worth it!

    I remember that my love for birds started when my parents bought a sun conure named Nico. He was so sweet and smart. He ended passing away a couple of years ago and it felt weird being in the house without him because he would just lighten up the house. My grandpa had found a cockatiel and had asked me if I wanted him which I didn’t hesitate. I named him Mango. My dads friend had given my him a cockatiel because his mom wasn’t taking care of him. I named him Ritchie because when we first got him he was so quiet which is completely understandable. I played one of Ritchie Valens songs and next thing I know he was whistling. 😊

    I also had a female sun conure from when I was six years old or so. She passed a couple years ago now, but everything you said about sun conures was very true, even down to the being cozy under the blanket part. I remember my Mango doing the same thing.

    Just got a little female ? (Possibly) sun conure today. Hand raised and possibly around a year old. She is a real sweety and so gentle! Her nibbles are not a bite at all. My Indian ring neck female bites so hard it draws blood and hurts for days! So this is a welcome change. Haven’t named her yet but I think it will not be Mango as nearly every video I see they are called that 😂. After having budgies, a cockatiel and ring necks I’m really excited to have a sun conure! She is loud, but no where near as loud as my ring neck lol

    A Quaker Parrot bite is seriously nothing compare to a Sun Conure bite. Mine has left scars. I have had mine for 18 years and the biting is my least favorite thing about her. Thankfully she doesn’t bite all the time but sometimes out of no where she will get me good.

    • @mimisbirdhouse
      @mimisbirdhouse  Před 2 lety +1

      They all have their pro and cons. Cockatiels are sweeties and not as loud as conures but they are really dusty so you have to have air purifiers and give them regular steamy showers. They also have night frights so you have to sleep with a night light on. They are more easily spooked but definitely gentle kind birds.
      Lovebirds are the chihuahuas of birds. Feisty and angry. Will try and bite you a lot. Luckily they are small, so compared to a conure their bites dont do much unless they are really mad, most of the time they just try and intimidate you. They are also paper shredders.
      Conures are playful babies who love to snuggle and be inside your shirt. They are the loudest of these three. They are more playful and active and are all silly as they hang upside down. They love to throw stuff off your counter.
      Hope that helped :)
