Ours will NOT allow this. He’s a rescue (previous owner passed) and very social. Likes stepping up and hardly bites but he’s not so big on the pets lol.
At night my bird sounds like he’s angry talking to himself like muttering like a gremlin and sometimes he gets a bit loud doing it. Best way to describe it is him arguing incoherently with himself.
LOL like a gremlin😆 Mia does this too sometimes! Some nights she chatters more than others. Parrots, like many other animals, have certain routines or rituals they follow before going to sleep. Chattering or vocalizing can be part of this settling down process. It may help them release excess energy, establish a sense of security, or simply be a habitual behaviour that brings them comfort.
@PoodlesandParrots Mine has to crawl into my shirt to settle in, and then off to the cage when he's relaxed. He can't just go to his cage. First in the shirt, then the cage where he can grumble himself to sleep LOL
Talk to your conure like you would a person. Tell the bird what you're doing so that their brain can make associations. If they are going to talk, I think that's the best way to teach them.
Thank you so much for this video ! I was searching for something like this a day ago, because I have a conure. She is 4 months old and I got her just 4 days ago:) She is flapping her wings and constantly chirping and grinding and all sorts of things.. It gets confusing sometimes, because I do not know if she is hungry, wants to play or is just talking to me:) You are super cool, thank you!
You're most welcome! 😍 That's so cute! Baby conures melt my entire heart! Baby birds will flap their wings are they start to use them more this is usually not a hormonal flapping (conures start hormonal phases around 2 years of age). Chirping and grinding her beak, she is likely content💛- this blog may also be helpful! ;; poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/signs-that-your-parrot-likes-you 😊
Finally a video I can easily understand and has explained what I need to know ! My poor baby had been screaming so much now I can confidently fix the problem because I finally understand my Charlie's sounds. I am Clueless with my crimson bellied conure but he's my baby so I'm trying to educate myself, something he deserved me to do years ago
My conure mimicks my laugh. Sometimes I laugh quietly under my breath, and he's picked up on that, too. So when he's playing by himself, he's usually laughing and squealing and happy growling. He has a happy growl. His sounds aren't all similar to the ones on this video. He also kisses anything he likes. He makes the kissing sound. He loves the garbage for some reason and has a thing for the dryer. He has to sit by it and watch it when it's on, and he tries to catch the clothes through the window LOL Living with a conure is like living with a very loud toddler.
I don't know... I have a Sun Conure and she seems to make a lot of sounds similar birds I see on here don't make. She seems to have more of a deeper "voice" for lack of better term. She also does hiss alot, but she doesn't always seem mad when she does them. I can still reach in the cage and she will get on my finger and won't act aggressive.
My Green-Cheek Conure is a very good talker. She has favorite words and phrases like "Baby Bird", "Give me some seeds" and lately, "Big Chicken" or "Baby Chick Chick." She can also say, "Whacha doing?" "Come in" "Who is it" "Peek-a-boo" "Give me some cerie (cereal), "Give me some sing" then "Dee dee dee dee." There are more but I can't think of all of them. Most of the time it is clear and easy to understand. She's 11 years old. (I say she, but we've never had her tested. I suspect she might be male.) I bought her when she was a baby.
What about squeaking like a squeaky toy? My GCC began squeaking loudly around when he turned one year old. He squeaks to demand a scratch, but I think he also squeaks to say he's annoyed or excited. I wish I knew which! He's about a year-and-a-half now.
My two conures are the best guard dogs you could have. Anyone walks by the front of the house they go into their warning call and it's loud. They also have a warning call for anything white that enters the room. How do you keep your birds off your plants?
Conures are good at that☺️ surprisingly our birds have never been too keen on our plants so I haven’t had an issue with that and we also have a lot of faux plants 🪴 🙈 so it makes it a lot easier > poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/safe-and-unsafe-household-plants 😊
We have a lot of bird friendly spots around our home as well like ropes and swings and tree stands with toys so there are funner things to do that get into the plants. This helps!💚
Although I love my son Conure, I wish I would of got a gcc. My sun conure, likes to bite my ears really hard & won't step up. Only gets on my shoulder if I offer my shoulder. I've had him a month today. He's not as friendly as my previous birds.
🥺🥺🥺 All birbs deserve a chance❤️ > ruclips.net/video/W2OQ03k0bBI/видео.html this video might be helping for bonding. I also have a video on biting, how old is your sun Conure?
You have to teach them boundaries. Don't allow them on your shoulders until you teach them to be nice with hands/fingers. Especially a new bird. Never allow them on your shoulder until the bond and trust is developed
Three out of four of the Conyers I’ve had have spoken quite a bit. My conure Baby One had over 100 phrases and she understood many of them like when she said give me a kiss and she leaned over and touched my lips with her beak so she said it she knew what it was and she did it. I just don’t like the idea of some people saying Conures can’t speak with or have a very limited vocabulary or they don’t understand really what they’re saying. All not true. Whenever humans have said what animals or even a baby can and can’t communicate or see or understand we’ve been wrong we don’t know what’s in their minds as far as understanding goes
Yes, they can talk pretty well. Mine says "Give me a kiss" and makes the smacking noise. One time she was on my shoulder and decided to bite my ear lobe. I yelled OUCH and she said, "that's my ear!" So plain. Oh, I forgot. She says "I'm itchy" a lot and I'm certain she associates that with getting her head rubbed.
at 9:57 your Conure puts his head down & appears to briefly grab the fabric. My Sun Conure likes to do this on top of his cage but its usually when I'm asking him to step up & he will usually ring his bell before doing this & will keep his head down for several seconds & maybe also flutter his wings a bit. Almost like he is trying to tell me something or expecting something but I'm not understanding. I've looked at other videos for examples of this behavior but yours was the first where I've seen a Conure almost replicate it. Please weigh in. Thanks!
Mia does this as a first sign that she is angry about something. So your conure is communicating that something is making him angry, this can also be followed by beak tapping repeatedly or the wing flutters. As you can see at that point she was angry with the camera - she doesn't always like it but depends on her mood or the light - and then she lunged to bite the camera; I wanted to get the video as an example. poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/my-parrot-is-biting-why-and-what-can-i-do I would recommend looking at what happens before the behaviour to understand the context and see if there is a pattern. A good way to do this is to video interactions so you can review it afterwards. i am constantly learned about these beautiful birds but I'll be doing a video soon on resources for where to turn to when you need help with bird behaviours and more! Cheers!😊
Oh my gosh! I can’t remember I’m sorry! I think it was either Amazon or a local online parrot store but if you find something similar you can also get shredded paper to fill it 😀
my green cheek conure doesn't talk yet and he still makes some clicking/baby noises for some reason. he's 2 years old, and for some reason he hasn't talked yet or made any of the sounds in this video. is something wrong with mine?
My baby green cheek is extremely cuddly and grinds the beak alot when we snuggle and does chirp a bit but is very quiet all day very little noise. However didnt like my folded up blanket straight flew into the side of the cage both sides three times I sent the blanket down immediately and took my baby out and snuggled up was fine I checked was worried at the speed that it was slamming itself
good video thanks. what does it mean when they are constantly making a trill noise. My CGG has really bad behavuoral issues and screams like hell when i leave the room , nothing i do has worked and i have paid for support but everything failed so he is a very vocal bird. He has now started making the most horredous screeching noises when in his cage but he has also had an awful hormanal period that strated in Feb and is still ongoing and i am wondering if the trill noise are part of that as they seem constant , Out of ideas
It sounds like separation anxiety, I would recommend The Parrot Podcast and episode 14 we chat about separation anxiety and Courtney shares some really great info including on screaming ruclips.net/video/4B8nn66hLDQ/видео.htmlsi=qk0AQeDMxanlKLqA she has a lot of great detailed videos on her channel as well🫶🏼Flock Talk🫶🏼
Both are so cute! It really depends on you! I have a video coming soon on how to know if a GCC is right you🥰 I’m biased because I love conures but they also match my personality really well🤩
@@PoodlesandParrots Just put a down payment on a high red yellow sided GCC! We held a bunch of different birds and it was between a dusk conure and the GCC. Both were very snuggly. Granted they are only 4 weeks old but ended up picking the GCC in the end!! The breeder says we can come in and handle the bird as much as we want until it's ready to come home in a few months!
Parrots make all kinds of sounds naturally, but we can teach talking through training, repetition, + capture training. Conures are better known for mimicking - Mango mimics a lot, whereas Mia also mimics a few things but had learned to say her name from hearing it all the time! So we captured with positive reinforcement, and now she says her name all the time, especially when she wants some attention 🥹🥹💕I always try to film it, but she stops as soon as I get my camera 😆
My two sun conures just started taking flight with flying and they always want to land on my head. How can i stop this?? I've used different kinds of hats, news paper sitting on my head. HELP !!
My 4 conures have a whole ass conversation with each other. Like i swear i can understand bits and pieces of them saying let's use this lady for all her snacks and seeds SMH tf 🤣
I just got a conure and i wanted to ask bc is my first time getting a parrot if my parrot can make me sick or if parrots have some viruses that can transmit to humans?
Parrots can transmit diseases to humans, though it’s rare! The most notable is psittacosis (parrot fever), caused by the bacteria Chlamydia psittaci. To reduce risks, keep your conure's environment clean, wash your hands before/after handling, and ensure annual avian vet checkups. Check out our episodes of The Parrot Podcast especially the ones with vets! poodlesandparrots.com/podcast Hope this helps!
Looking for as much advice as possible I just got a black capped conure and he's 1 1/2 and his previous owners never gave him attention or anything he's beyond scared of people and bites he looks like he wants to learn just doesn't know how
I recommend going through our videos and the parrot podcast!🙌🏼 lots of great info and tons of videos loaded with info, there’s one on biting as well; ruclips.net/video/xW_EhhcYMik/видео.htmlsi=liH6ST8NPuNrtwn0 work on building trust and bonding, going at the birds pace🫶🏼
Hi 👋 if your dog is not trained with birds than until it is I would keep the 2 pets separate. You want to make sure you keep your bird safe in case your dog pounces, bites, etc or can be dangerous. This video might be of help: ruclips.net/video/2XXvob7oFf8/видео.html
It’s normal for them to be quiet in the first few days, especially since they’re still getting used to their new environment. Birds can take some time to feel comfortable and show their true personalities. Eating well is a good sign! I recommend my videos on bonding! ruclips.net/video/W2OQ03k0bBI/видео.htmlsi=clyObqbAI3iFd5UY
@@Mypetsworld-iz1hd Mia is a yellow sided turquoise green cheek Conure. There are turquoise green cheek Conures and their different variations (like yellow sided, etc) and blue crowned conures, the look and size is a bit different.
I have 2 green cheek conures that are approximately 11-12 months old. Im not sure of their sexes but i know they came from same batch?,litter?, what is it called? Anyway one is a bit bigger than the other,and is a massive BULLY to the other! He will NOT LET the other eat until he gets his fill first. He chases him away. He does not like the other to come near me or anything. How can i break this BULLY from picking on the other????
Keep them separate for now to prevent the bullying and allow them to build a bond at their own pace. Focus on spending individual time with each bird to build trust and strengthen your bond with them. Once things improve, you can gradually reintroduce them from a distance and monitor their interactions. For eating, I would definitely recommend setting up separate feeding stations and giving them space apart to reduce tension. Patience is key🗝
I have a question if you don't mind me asking but I recently brought home a conure and she nestles her beak in the bars while slightly opening her wings and I couldn't find a video about that action.. if you know something about it please let me know! thanks
I can't say for sure because it depends on what the wings are doing and other behaviours, so it could be attention-seeking could be hormonal;- Wings are not always meant for flying; they often are used to communicate. ie. Wing flapping, or flying in place, is used as exercise, to get your attention, or just to display happiness. Or wing flipping has several meanings, too; Wing flipping accompanied by hunching of the shoulders and head bobbing is attention-getting and often means that a bird wants to be fed. Flipping may also be a mating behaviour. To get to know more info on parrot hormones, check out our blog :) ; poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/hormonal-parrots-triggers-signs-tips cheers!
I notice in your videos that you can handlde all of the birds body ? I've had my sun conure for over a year and he hates his back being touched so I cannot get any further with him. Can you help with some ideas?
Hi! Please be aware you SHOULD NOT PET YOUR BIRD ON THEIR BACK! Occasional touches are okay (getting something off their back, them leaning against you, kisses, holding them like how she is..) but petting them on their wings, chest, back, etc. for conures means that you LIKE like them! Conures preening other conures (or any other bird for that matter) on areas they can preen themselves means they are their life partner and will eventually want to mate with them. Which unfortunately means petting them there is sexually stimulating. Please only keep to head and neck (and I believe feet is okay, too.)
It's a Montana cage - they are awesome! I actually have a video coming out this week on where to buy the cages and everything else for parrots. 😊Stay tuned 😀
How do you get them to let you hold them mine will step up and let me pet her … is this a with time thing? She’s 17 weeks old I’ve had her just over a month. ❤❤
Disappointed that you missed putting some examples in. I know there were a couple but off the top of my head, you missed the growling sound although you discussed it. It went to beak tapping. Growling is the sound they make when I'm trying to scritch her and they've had enough. So a warning to hands off.
I try to get video footage of as many things as I can but I don't always get the opportunity to get everything on camera but our Poodle & Parrot Pals know I try!🙂 Conures can growl in a variety of situations, and the pitch and intensity of the growl can give clues to what the bird is feeling, this is why I mentioned that context is important! A high-pitched growl can indicate fear/distress/worry/nervousness, while a lower-pitched growl may actually be a sign of relaxation, contentment, or curiousness. By paying close attention to their body language, vocalizations, and behaviour, we can develop a better understanding of our own bird's needs, preferences, and emotions.😁 I'll try to get a few clips of Mia's growls to turn into a YT short!
I was very concerned about my Sun Conure “Oh Lordy” he screams and screams until I come back in to the living room to sit, then he will get quite and play on his gym or he eats, they say don’t come in and get him, if I don’t he will fly to the ground and look for me, even if I am in the bathroom Oh Lordy 😅
Not every bird will like being held this way they are all individuals and it may or may not be something they will feel comfortable doing, tune into episode 21 where Mike and I talk about this on The Parrot Podcast!
I love that little purrr sound they make,like they tilt their heads and see a big bird outside,or squirrels and make the purrr sound,its so cool
I love that the holding like a potato is synonymous with all conures. 😂
The more Conure moms I talk too the more I realize this too☺️ conures are ice creams🍦😅
My sun conure lets me do that too lmao
Ours will NOT allow this. He’s a rescue (previous owner passed) and very social. Likes stepping up and hardly bites but he’s not so big on the pets lol.

Hi 👋 if your dog is not trained with birds than until it is I would keep the 2 pets separate. You want to make sure you keep your bird safe in case your dog pounces, bites, etc or can be dangerous. This video might be of help: ruclips.net/video/2XXvob7oFf8/видео.html
It has been 2 days i bought my pineapple conure but they are not noisy also not even a more chattering can i know why(but they like to eat more)
It’s normal for them to be quiet in the first few days, especially since they’re still getting used to their new environment. Birds can take some time to feel comfortable and show their true personalities. Eating well is a good sign! I recommend my videos on bonding! ruclips.net/video/W2OQ03k0bBI/видео.htmlsi=clyObqbAI3iFd5UY
What did the baby's aound mean?
That is the difference between Turquoise bule and Blue conur?
What do you mean? This video refers to Conure sounds - all conures 😊
If you are looking for differences check out; ruclips.net/video/42EgGoncI88/видео.html
i have a turquoise blue conure but i want to know that blue conure and turquoise blue conure are same or different?
your MIA is turquoise blue or blue conure?
@@Mypetsworld-iz1hd Mia is a yellow sided turquoise green cheek Conure. There are turquoise green cheek Conures and their different variations (like yellow sided, etc) and blue crowned conures, the look and size is a bit different.
I have 2 green cheek conures that are approximately 11-12 months old.
Im not sure of their sexes but i know they came from same batch?,litter?, what is it called? Anyway one is a bit bigger than the other,and is a massive BULLY to the other! He will NOT LET the other eat until he gets his fill first. He chases him away.
He does not like the other to come near me or anything.
How can i break this BULLY from picking on the other????
Keep them separate for now to prevent the bullying and allow them to build a bond at their own pace. Focus on spending individual time with each bird to build trust and strengthen your bond with them. Once things improve, you can gradually reintroduce them from a distance and monitor their interactions. For eating, I would definitely recommend setting up separate feeding stations and giving them space apart to reduce tension. Patience is key🗝
I have a question if you don't mind me asking but I recently brought home a conure and she nestles her beak in the bars while slightly opening her wings and I couldn't find a video about that action.. if you know something about it please let me know! thanks
I can't say for sure because it depends on what the wings are doing and other behaviours, so it could be attention-seeking could be hormonal;- Wings are not always meant for flying; they often are used to communicate. ie. Wing flapping, or flying in place, is used as exercise, to get your attention, or just to display happiness. Or wing flipping has several meanings, too; Wing flipping accompanied by hunching of the shoulders and head bobbing is attention-getting and often means that a bird wants to be fed. Flipping may also be a mating behaviour. To get to know more info on parrot hormones, check out our blog :) ; poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/hormonal-parrots-triggers-signs-tips cheers!
@@PoodlesandParrots that was actually really helpful, thank you! :>
@@imyourgrandma-5323 😀😀
My conure made a new sound..like a sigh? I have no idea if it was a mimic or what. Just new and can’t find any answers
Is it happening consistently?
What name brand is your cage?
Montana cages
I notice in your videos that you can handlde all of the birds body ? I've had my sun conure for over a year and he hates his back being touched so I cannot get any further with him. Can you help with some ideas?
Hi! Please be aware you SHOULD NOT PET YOUR BIRD ON THEIR BACK! Occasional touches are okay (getting something off their back, them leaning against you, kisses, holding them like how she is..) but petting them on their wings, chest, back, etc. for conures means that you LIKE like them! Conures preening other conures (or any other bird for that matter) on areas they can preen themselves means they are their life partner and will eventually want to mate with them. Which unfortunately means petting them there is sexually stimulating. Please only keep to head and neck (and I believe feet is okay, too.)
@@mayhemreign6132 thank you for saying that
What kind of cage is that?
It's a Montana cage - they are awesome! I actually have a video coming out this week on where to buy the cages and everything else for parrots. 😊Stay tuned 😀
Off context but you are so pretty!! And thanks for the info 😊
Oh thank you!😆
I hold my conure Zero just the same way. I call her my pointing bird.
☺️🥰
How do you get them to let you hold them mine will step up and let me pet her … is this a with time thing? She’s 17 weeks old I’ve had her just over a month. ❤❤
It just takes love and patience lots of patiences
Disappointed that you missed putting some examples in. I know there were a couple but off the top of my head, you missed the growling sound although you discussed it. It went to beak tapping. Growling is the sound they make when I'm trying to scritch her and they've had enough. So a warning to hands off.
I try to get video footage of as many things as I can but I don't always get the opportunity to get everything on camera but our Poodle & Parrot Pals know I try!🙂 Conures can growl in a variety of situations, and the pitch and intensity of the growl can give clues to what the bird is feeling, this is why I mentioned that context is important! A high-pitched growl can indicate fear/distress/worry/nervousness, while a lower-pitched growl may actually be a sign of relaxation, contentment, or curiousness. By paying close attention to their body language, vocalizations, and behaviour, we can develop a better understanding of our own bird's needs, preferences, and emotions.😁 I'll try to get a few clips of Mia's growls to turn into a YT short!
My cute little jenday protects my home. She keeps all the squirrels away 😂
My conure makes this loud and long whistle
I was very concerned about my Sun Conure “Oh Lordy” he screams and screams until I come back in to the living room to sit, then he will get quite and play on his gym or he eats, they say don’t come in and get him, if I don’t he will fly to the ground and look for me, even if I am in the bathroom Oh Lordy 😅
My bird screams at balloons and plastic bag 😂
I am big fun!

My parrots name is aswell Mango😊😊
Hello!
I want to train my girlfriends sun conure to let me hold him like a potato but he is very hostile to being held
Not every bird will like being held this way they are all individuals and it may or may not be something they will feel comfortable doing, tune into episode 21 where Mike and I talk about this on The Parrot Podcast!
I just found out my gcc Rudy is a GIRL 💗💮💗🌸💗
Awwww!!! So adorable!🥰💕💓 yay!
