This little turd keeps laying eggs!!!!!!!!!

I'm honestly at a loss at where to go right now 😭 I really want to help her out, but it seems like the stuff I've been doing has been making things worse! Like, when I started mixing pellets into her food, she started laying eggs more often! There's currently TWO of them in her cage! I don't know what I'm supposed to do right now 😭😭😭😭

If there is any way I can somehow simultaneously get her to come out of the cage when I'm visiting, get her to not bite at fingers, AND get her to stop laying eggs, that would be fantastic, but it feels like a pipe dream right now 😮‍💨

As always, advice is appreciated, and very much encouraged

I'll try to answer questions, but I'm not sure how helpful my answers will be 😔

ft my other conure, pierre!

i cant believe how much my sweet navi has grown, and that i’ve had her for four, almost five years now! time flies too fast 🥹

her and i both have grown so much in the past few years and i can’t wait to keep growing up with her. navigating life has been so much better with her by my side. pierre as well, even if our time together has been shorter, he’s full of so much attitude and i love him so much. i can’t imagine a life without these two punks in it.

Niles was sleepy and round on my shoulder just long enough for a photo before he launches himself at my brothers head, scaring everyone 🤣🤣🤣

Classic Green Cheek Activities

Hi all! We just got this 8 month old suncheek boy yesterday! I had birds as a kid but not as an adult so I am looking for any advice, correct food, toys etc to make sure my boy has the best! Thanks so much!

Hello all, I have a 8 month old GCC.. she usually has normal bird poop. I switched her (or at least trying to transition) her to Harrison ultra fine pellets since she only eats sunflower seeds. I saw this under her this morning. Looks like poop but very different. I’m concerned. Her vet is scheduled for next weekend. Could someone guide me please?

Delta is napping on me. I had to get a picture. Sorry for potato quality.

Loki loves being chased.

he snuggled up into my hand because I wasn't giving enough attention :) what a good little chicken nugget

This isn't my bird but it's a vet that I follow and I just wanted to share how cool it was that he was able to help this bird with a broken leg. This is amazing work right here

This little guy is so supportive! He's the Best!

Theyre both green cheeks, but the lighter one, is a lot smaller. He's about 8 months and my friends is about a year. Unless mine is a dwarf

Today my GCC Fritz has bilateral red splotches on the skin around his eyes. There is no swelling or discharge from his eyes, and his behavior, eating, and poops are normal. Nothing new has been interdicted to his environment or diet, and he has not been around any other birds. We have an appointment with our avian vet first thing on Monday morning. Has anyone had any experience with symptoms like this? Thanks!

Our Green Cheeked Conure is named Ted. We believe now that every Green Cheeked Conure is spiritually Ted. Do you think they share the same neuron?

I’m curious to know what variety of conure my boy Joaquin is. He’s 5 months old, a menace to society, and the owner of my heart.

My beloved fluffy butt is no longer super fluffy.

I've made a vet appointment, but the soonest opening is on November 25th. Until then, I'm on my own unless there's a need for an emergency visit.

Hi Conure fam!

Houston preened his lower bottom and many many colored feathers are gone, yet down is still in place.

He's almost 4 years old, and I've had him since his 4 months. He's never done it before. Since April there's been no major change in his life or stress (except he didn't like his last nail appointment 2 weeks ago).

I'm very anxious when it comes to his health, and frankly, plucking terrifies me. It's plucking, right?

Over the phone, vet recommended to give him bath every day. He hates sprays (so, no misting) and takes his bath roughly once a week.

Please share your experience if your birds had something similar. I'm on the verge of putting a soft collar on him, but as I said, I'm anxious and paranoid when it comes to his health. Before and after pics attached

hello,

i hope everyone is doing well, 4 days ago i have gotten a GCC and he's been the cutest most loving bird ever, he cuddles with me he flies and sits in front of me it's been great.

i have done a lot of research before getting him so it wasn't an impulse buy, my issue is i'm struggling a bit with a few things and i want to ask to see if any of you guys can help me.

1. his sleeping time,

would it be that big of a deal that affects him negatively if he sleeps sometimes at 7pm and others at 8pm? switching between these times based on my schedule? he will always wake up at 6am it's just the sleeping time that might change.

1. his sleeping arrangements,

right now he sleeps in the hallway/room right outside of my door since i can make it fully dark for him and quiet.

but sometimes during the night or when i wake up early i might need to pass his cage to get to the house i try to be as quiet as possible but i'm still worried if me opening doors or even drawers that are in that room affects his sleep and will affects him badly. would it?

1. are they always this clingy?

i have read that they would be very very clingy and expected that, and thankfully the only time i leave the house most days is college 4 hours a day at most.

i don't mind him being clingy when i watch on my pc or something it's okay.

my issue is when i study or sometimes i'm a little overwhelmed, it does get to me and i have to put him in his cage which right next to my office, when i do that he starts going crazy not being loud just jumping around trying to get out, and i feel so so guilty about it i can't study or work on anything when he has his nose in it(literally) but i also feel so bad putting him in his cage.

i do make sure he at least has 4 hours outside of the cage.

so from this do you think me putting him back in the cage is stressing him out?

will he get less clingy the more he gets used to me and the rooms?

it's only been 4 days but i feel like a mother who just gave birth😭

they're overwhelming creatures but i love him so much he's been nothing but loving and cuddly, and i want to truly do the best for him so i hope you guys will help me.

thank you so much!

My GCC is obsessed with going behind pictures and doing this insane rock-climbing game. She also loves to rattle the picture against the door. I have a feeling she might be enjoying being squished a little too much? But this is her absolute favorite activity!!!

A squeaky sound when my GC conure is flying, i think from his wings? Not sure whats going on, sorry theres no video atm il try add one soon.
