? About my Aratinga Conure  Reply with quote  

Smile Hello! As some of you know, I recently got a Conure, who was plucking her belly Crying or Very sad , but since I've had her she has stopped Exclamation Very Happy ...I wanted to update on that.

On my search to learn more about Conures, I have another question Question

....Is there a special name for Conures who have red tipped shoulders? My "Baby" does....

PS...I'll be updating my diary soon with a page for each bird....They want their own special page.... Shocked lol They want equal people gawking time Laughing

Each bird has its own colouration, I'm pretty sure your conure is a Jenday conure, and here are pictures of what they look like..

Each bird has a different colouration, like my conure has 1 yellow feather on his back, when most don't have that..

Maybe your conure is a hybrid? just a thought Wink

That was a nice picture site you showed me.... thanks for the information Smile

I don't know much about Conures yet, but I'm learning fast. I just find every bird to be so facinating! Smile

I figured out she likes to be scritched under each of her wings....I feel so honored Very Happy ....I take it that it means she really trusts me! Exclamation
