- Hey Conure Lovers!
In this video I thought I'd give some simple tips for conure training. Almost all of these tips transfer to other parrot species, but I kept getting asking about green cheeks so I thought I'd do a video on them specifically.
Also worth remembering when training your green cheek is environment and noise levels. You generally want a calm environment without vibrations/loud noises to have a good training session!
Target Training is absolutely essential with green cheeks as it helps in so many ways!
Any comments as usual, feel free!

Thank you! Although I have to watch muted with CC on as it teaches him to scream in my apartment reacting to the birbs 😂 much love brother! 🙌
Everyone watches in their own way lol
@@TheParrotTeacher i just cant wait to get into a house so I can let him scream as he pleases 😂🙏
Pickles kills me 😂 everytime
She’s a little boss lady!
People underestimate target training. Always do it first. Will build trust and you can use it for everything.
Yup! It’s arguably an essential skill for any parrot parent!
Thx for these vids mate, should be getting my first parrot (pineapple conure) this Friday and was a little worried about training it, so will be definitely checking out your other vids.
Awesome! I have loads of conure content so you’ll likely find the channel useful!
Very helpful! Thanks for the training tips! 🙂
Glad it was useful!
Thank you for this video with tips on how to train our little birbs. Maybe do a video on how our birbs train us, lol 😂 they are very good at getting what they want. ❤
That is worthwhile! Thank you!
Hey its sugar glider mami with a new picture 😊 thank you for this video! It's perfect timing for me as a new conure owner.
Glad it’s useful and cool name!

My parrot whenever i try to treat him, instead of going for the food will try to bite my finger, he follows me around and stuff but still tries to bite me.
Your treat isn’t high enough value or biting you is more reinforcing!
It’d be worth establishing what his fave treat is and changing the way you offer itb
Hi I'm Nigel from Lincolnshire I've got a green check conour parrot how do I stop him bitting me I've had him for about a year now😊
Hey Nigel, I recently did a video on biting you may find helpful! I also have one specifically about conure biting too on the channel!
Can a pinapple and a green cheek mate
Hey there, they are both green cheeks! Many people treat colour variations as different but they are all green cheeks. As such they can mate!
Great video !! My green cheek is about 2 months old and still not fully weaned . Is it too early to start training ?
I’d say you could begin training then!
I wouldn’t say it’s worth training too early unless it’s step up but at that age they should be fine !
I try to teach my cockatiel a trick for quite a while now. He has to put a yellow object into a yellow box and the blue one in a blue box. Sometimes he is making real progress and other times it is a mess! Now I start having doubts about his ability to distinguish colors. Am I expecting something of him which is unrealistic?
If you’re sticking to two colours I’d say he’s capable!
It might be worth looking at environmental factors?
Is the cue and bridge consistent, is there stuff going on that’s disrupting him? Etc etc
You say that he can not distinguish more than two colors? I sometimes add a third color (red) and a few weeks ago I added even a fourth color (green). Is it a coincidence that he seems to understand it on some of his brighter days? Or are they in fact colorblind?
At the moment he is hormonal as hell! Can't concentrate on any of his tricks 😂
@@sietskeluytema2667 they can definitely see colour but in a different way to us as they see uv!
He can possibly do more colours but from what I’ve seen and others have had success with they do hit an upper limit!
What I meant is 2 is definitely going to be fine for him to handle, more is possible!
@@TheParrotTeacher thank you so much 😘
Which of them is male and female
Olive is confirmed female, scampi is male and pickles is unconfirmed female
I’ve always loved birds and had some and I’ve done my fair share of research but my birds wouldn’t let me touch them so I let them be to not stress them out. I would try to give much as affection as I could but I can’t be there all the time due to family circumstances. My birds passed years ago but I want to get back at it. But I don’t think it that will be good because of not being there. Should I get a bird?
That’s entirely your choice.
Having parrots does take time and commitment, so if you think you don’t have enough then maybe it isn’t the best choice.
However if you provide them a very big enclosure, get multiple birds so they have company and make the time you do spend with them quality time then maybe it could work.
Both things are worth considering
@@TheParrotTeacher thank you!
Maybe look at getting an english budgie if you don't have a ton of time to be with the bird.
No training ❤here
Juet trust and love

Training is very useful as it’s basically developing trust and love further. Birds train and learn from each other in the wild as part of the flock so we need to help them with that at home and to thrive in our environment
hi i have a question my male green cheek lost his mate about 2wks ago hes 4 1/2 hes getting nippy/biting i know hes grieving sad we are both 💔 she died by egg binding{?} she was laying eggs, before i could get help she died in front of me and my male he layed his head on the back of her neck and cried we both were with her when she passed ... hes calling for her it happen 2 weeks ago... i want to get a frd for him am not a breeder didnt want to be just happen i got a female and the breeding stuff has been devastating losing our sweet girl has been tuff ... i would love to rescue a male frd but not sure... any advise to help my sweet grieving conure hes eating but not like he did w his mate not eating his veg/ i encourage him & hand feed but hes sad 🧘🏼♀️💔🦜 any advice would help us ... 😒
Sadly I don’t have much specific advice here. It’s a sad situation.
Time, extra attention, maintaining routine, training and all the usual things are the best things to do.
