10 Things you NEED to know about SUN CONURES

There's a lot to know about sun conures; they are long-term pets. Did you know they can live 25-30 years! If you want a sun conure. be prepared for the responsibility and understand their personalities, needs, and care requirements for a long healthy, and happy life! They are big personalities in little bodies. :)
Please make sure to follow appropriate care guidelines and spend time bonding with your bird each day. If you don't, your bird may become aggressive towards you, they can become depressed, and this leads to feather plucking and other behaviours. It's important to do your research before bringing a conure home.

Every sun conure I have ever met acts like they have abandonment issues.. they just always want to be with you for everything.. If I gave my sunny 24 hours 7 days a week he would start to get upset that he didn't get 8 days a week. They will adapt to your lifestyle. Just give it time

Lol! I find it funny how my parents’ Sun Conure got her name. Her name is Cuddles. And man, she is annoying! Yet she loves listening to my piano playing. Even when I was little many years ago, she kept watching me when I was playing with my toys. Nice to see Mango though. Kind of did not have a choice as a kid when getting adopted to a family who already owns Cuddles and previously had two love birds.

[@sandrawilson5629]

I just found your channel looking for advice and info on sun conures. We just got ours yesterday (8/27/23) & we absolutely love her! Our son is 11 & has had a lutino cockatiel (our very first bird) since March. We were at a bird supply shop yesterday to buy seed and toys and saw that they had LOTS of birds for sale that are all hand raised by the owner of the store. We ended up with a 4 month old female (she was hatched on April 1, 23) & our son named her Salsa, (our cockatiel's name is Chip & our son loves Mexican food so we now have Chip & Salsa😂as pets)

[@SunConureDad]

I got Skittles in 2011. He was 1yr 2wks old and had been to three different pet stores. He basically chose me as I was not in the market for a new bird (I had a cockatiel at the time). When I first saw him in the display case he came down to see me and was 'hopping' up and down with excitement. I'd never seen a bird hop and I gasped. A lady nearby heard me and came over to see. So I stepped away so she could see him. He totally ignored her and went up his tree perch and began to preen himself. She made a snide remark and then walked away. Before I left, I went to say goodbye to him and he came right back down and did his hopping thing and rolled over. I wanted to buy him then and there but the clerk talked me out of it when I mentioned I live in an apartment building. For the next four days I could not stop thinking of about him so I did a ton of research about them and decided I had to have him so I bought him. He is VERY loud and for the first two years I had him, he was impossible to deal with. But that was because I wasn't setting limits and was basically spoiling him rotten. So, I retrained him using timeouts and I am CONSTANTLY enforcing boundaries and now he is VERY obedient (for a sunny anyways, lol, mischief is their middle name). I lucked out because he was potty trained by a lady in the pet store and I didn't realize this til he kept flying off my shoulder and pooping in his cage or on the playstand and then flying back to me. He was also taught to make 'kissy noises' by that clerk. Long story short, he is MUCH quieter than he used to be. I enforce boundaries BUT I also had to make a LOT of changes to my daily routine and also make numerous sacrifices to accommodate his needs. He's free-flighted so he gets PLENTY of exercise and is quiet most of the time. In fact, the only time he screams now is to 'alert me' to danger (or perceived danger) or to point out something (like his food or water dish is empty) or he wants a bath or wants to go bedtime. While I would never recommend someone getting a sun conure if they live in an apartment, I made it work for me but I'm more an exception than a rule. I should also note, I'm disabled so I am home 95% of the time. I go out maybe 2 to 3 days a week or about 2-3 hours each time. So he doesn't spend much time in his day cage. This has a lot to do with him being so quiet. I don't have company often (in fact, the only time people come over is usually maintenance or pest control during the day). If I have company over, I wait til after he goes to bed. He's not properly socialized because I'm pretty much a loner. So the down side is, I can't let him out with other people around. If they get within 6 feet of me he will attack them and he's REALLY nasty about it too. He's a sweetheart with me, but he's Hitchcockian Hellbird to other people, unfortunately. Just to show how jealous he gets, if I want him to come to me and he doesn't want too, I will talk sweet in my 'birdy voice' to the remote or the pillow or whatever and he'll crap a brick and fly right over as if saying "oh, hell no. you do NOT talk to ANYONE but me in that tone!" But I love him dearly and he's now 11 years old and we've been together just over 10 years. I feed him organic pellets, so he's well cared for.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Aww, that's a love story! You 2 were meant to be together💛💛💛 very lovely to read about how you and Skittles have grown together over the years. He is very lucky he found you and that you found him! Sun Conures tend to be one person people and you are his person so it is natural for him to be jealous or protective, Mango can be the same way! But we have been working on socializing him more and more🙂 Skittles is in good hands we see and well taken care of, well done! Wishing you and Skittles a pleasant day! Cheers!!

I'm very fortunate to share my life with a gorgeous Gold Cap Conure. He can get loud. I use a light blanket over his cage when he's constantly screaming. The covering quiets him down. I make sure that I remove the blanket when he's quiet, and that seems to work. To me, his loud vocals are WHO HE IS, and because I love him, I definitely accept his loud vocals. Conures are everything you described, thank you so much for your video. I would love to see your tips for quieting things down. Thanks again.

Mango is adorable!! I've had my sun conure, Lester, for almost 4 years now and he's a handful, but I absolutely love him!! They are incredible animals and I could cuddle him all day! lol. What veggies do you use in his chopped up mixture? Lester isn't super crazy about veggies, but he loves fruit! Watermelon and grapes especially. Of course though I want him to eat me veggies, so I'm curious what you use. Also, quick tip, make sure Mango has more than just round perhes to perch on. Having different textures, shapes and sizes is not only good for them, but its necessary. If they only have round perches, it'll end up hurting their feet. You may or may not already know that. You're obviously a wonderful, loving and educated fur and feathered momma! lol. Its amazing what these birds are capable of and all that they teach us. To those who are thinking about it. They're very time consuming, but if you have the time and are ready to make a HUGE, long term commitment, then they're also super rewarding!! 🦜🤗🥰

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Lester sounds very cute!! Mango eats all his veggies I make him chop - sometimes I make my own recipes but usually use the birdtricks cookbook birdtricksstore.com/collections/health-and-diet/products/natural-feeding-system-digital-download?rfsn=4048129.56de1 and answer how to get your bird to eat veggies in a recent video kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4C9iaSXfL6Ae7s :) hope this helps! && yes Mango has many different perches I am aware of how important it is for their feet and foot care health :) thanks for all the love!🤗🤗

[@OogleTheGreat]

I used to feed my conures grapes until I discovered that grape skin holds pesticides more than any other fruit. Organic?? Perhaps, but do you really want to take the chance of poisoning your baby? I feed mine bananas, apples (no seeds!), watermelon, blueberries, canteloupe, pineapple, strawberries, and craisins.

@@PoodlesandParrots My Conure is now almost of 2months and we are enjoying this amazing bird. We are feeding him/her (not sure about the gender) formulated food with the help of syringe.

Should I keep any cage for the Bird or let it move freely in my home? Please suggest. Thanks

[@PoodlesandParrots]

@@FISHONWHEELS Sunny is a happy bird I’m sure! I would recommend my other video kzbin.info/www/bejne/op6qYq1vi9uWacU and I would also suggest getting a good sized roomy cage or aviary for your bird. It’s good to let them be free and exercise while spending time with their human flock everyday but you want to have a safe space for them. You want to have them in the aviary for sleep time (12 hours) and whenever your bird is not supervised - if your busy or going out.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

@@FISHONWHEELS additionally a cage is good because it will have perches where they can perch up and have their own toys to destroy. Plus they can poop in there without a mess all over the room.

So, I got my Sun Conure from a local breeder in 1996, Baby was hand raised and hand fed. Wife drove, and baby just crawled all over me on way home. Don't know why, but just knew it was a female bird. Laid some eggs around 7 years old first time. Had to let her sit them until she lost interest otherwise would start laying again. Loves to get in water and things she shouldn't, so like a toddler, have to be aware all the time. If cooking something wet like soup or have water in the sink, have to close the cage. Loves crawling down my arm to get into about an inch and a half of water in the kitchen sink and splash all over for about five minutes than enjoys a bundling in a cotton towel for another five minutes. Loves to get near the edge of my dinner plate and pick and choose. If we have a salad, have to set one for her also, else can't get near my own. Absolute favorite in the salad is the tomato, followed by cucumber and any fruit. Attacks bananas, tears the peel to pieces ferociously, but likes the banana. At around 15 years old, figured how to flip open the sliding door to her food. The cage was outside and of course she flew away. Just left the cage open and out and a tape recorder on endless loop. She was returning to the cage to eat and then leaving for about a week. Stopped putting food in the trays and started eating outside by the cage at dinner. She finally flew down to me, gave me a screech and started in on my salad. Put her in her cage and no problems since. She is twenty-six now but still active. Got a quaker 3 years ago, they get along pretty good as long as not in the same cage.

I'm glad u mentioned "sanded perches" sams nails r super long and sharp so I been trying to figure out what to do about it. But he doesn't like new stuff in his house. We just got him a few months ago and he is 4 years old already. So it's just kinda testing the waters so to say with him so far

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Whenever the nails get too sharp I go for a nail trimming with our avian vet. To keep the trimmings to last longer it helps to have a sanded perch in a short term perching spot only** and you can also train your bird to do little nail files at home. Episode 25 of the parrot podcast talks about it!😀

Mango & Lambo do the same thing! It's probably because they grew up together and learned to make noise together - they have each other's back!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Congrats! It’s a very popular name 😊

[@introvertedcrow]

Sun conures have a 104% chance of being named Mango

[@PoodlesandParrots]

This is true... somehow we didn't know this until we made them an Instagram account. Many suns are Mango or Sunny! haha Oh well, it suits them very well!

[@introvertedcrow]

@@PoodlesandParrots it really does! They should've been called mango conures lol

[@c103110a]

Mine is CONGO. Close though.

What beautiful friends❤️❤️

My bird is named Mango too! :D

[@zacfincher4020]

We had a sun conure surrendered to my pet store that could say hello, good morning, good night and mimic a human laugh. His name was petey pablo, and his favorite food/treat was red pepper and sunflower seeds.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Did he find a good home?

[@ryomathelobsterlord2502]

I just got my 3 month old sun conure yesterday. His name is also mango 😂 He is starting to get loud. He has lots of green feathers but i see some yellow. He even eats from my hand.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

🧡💛💚 More Mangos 🥭😍🥰 Sun conures are one of the loudest of the conures - he will probably get louder & more yellow will come through over time 🙂 enjoy!

[@jorgedurant_]

Another mango here, is pretty common name for sun conure, I guess 🤣

[@isajimenez614]

How funny! I have a white miniature poodle and a jenday conure 🥰

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Aww so cute! Are they besties too!? :D

[@PoodlesandParrots]

@Pedro Ivan Sanchez they vary in price, depends on location I think :) check with a local breeder, you can also adopt :)

Maleah Maleah I have a 16 year old Sun Conure. When he was younger he would never shut up. Now he almost never screams unless there is something sincerely wrong he is making me aware of. It took many years before A). He mellowed out and B). He developed the presence of mind and knowledge of what I want form him. whenever there is a nice quiet moment where both of you are sitting there relaxed and your conure closes their eyes.. Tell them how good they are for being quiet. I learned from my father to constantly reinforce how good and sweet they are being when they are quiet and presenting desirable behavior. Telling them they are bad for being loud makes a young bird feel like they are being attacked and they dont learn anything. You need to slowly teach them by rewarding those calm moments with words like good or quiet so that they actually understand the terminology and what you want from them when you holler back at your bird to be good, or quiet down.

[@maleahmaleah7865]

@@anthonykryzak273 Thank you! I will use your suggestions!

[@anthonykryzak273]

@@maleahmaleah7865 your conure wants to please you.. sadly it can take years of repetition before they really learn what to do and avoid to make you happy. It's well worth the effort considering how many years we get with them.

I already have a pair just like it and it’s named mango too

Great information. Thanks for sharing. I don’t think Mango made a peep. How do you keep the chop salad fresh and for how long?

I just bought a sun conure 2 days ago. It’s gorgeous don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl but I also have a blue quaker

[@Fluffypotatoes4]

I'm nois sensitive and I got a sun conure four years ago, I hand reared her and at first she was extremely loud but after about a year she seemed to quiet down a bit and now she doesn't make that much nois but I think I just got lucky

[@PoodlesandParrots]

That is lucky because it’s not common for suns 🙊🍀

[@jakobwood7966]

I have a 7 month old sun conure named Akino. I am trying to train him on different things but he is very nippy when it comes to ears, and he tries to get to my teeth. He panics and screams anytime someone walks away or past him. He is having an issue flying and will only glide downward if he gets startled. He only likes apples, no bananas, strawberrys, or blueberries. Anything you recommend on his care and working with him?

[@thanksjesus153]

Hi I have Sun Conure bird, His name Mango.. .. so funy and smart, very noisy 😁😁😁. Your Mango also so cute... ♥️♥️♥️

They can be so loud and so annoying! But when my Chiquita gives me cuddles, it makes up for it.

[@dysomniah8854]

They're definitely loud and poop constantly but I've had mine for about almost a year and she's very cuddly and bites way to much on stuff . But i definitely love her we have another parrot but I'm not sure what type of parrot she is

[@PoodlesandParrots]

That definitely sounds like a SUN CONURE :):)but they are lovely birds and great companions

[@airihoshimi5433]

Im not sure if you remember me but I got my little baby sun conure at Monday. We had to take a 2 hour trip to get him/her and we got the sun conure. We bonded a bit on the car ride home and he/she really loves us. The baby is easy to bond with and they don't scream a lot. Only to say hi or he gets angry when we leave. Im in love with him/her oh and the name for the conure is Moji :)

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Aww, that's so wonderful! So happy for the new addition to your family, Moji sounds very sweet & I am sure it was worth the trip!! YAY:)

[@airihoshimi5433]

@@PoodlesandParrots it really was! Though I wish I knew the gender. Is there a way to know which gender it is but not take a blood test? Also I have a pellet bowl and a seed ish bowl and moji keeps going for the seed one, would it be best to take that bowl out and just add a diy toy? Thanks

[@H2ObarryField]

Thanks for the video. Which cage (exactly) is that; and where did you get it.? Looks like the exact size we'd like to get for our Jenday, but can't seem to find the right one.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

I'll be honest getting cages depends on where you live, we bought it online in Thailand - I am not sure of the brand but recently we just upgraded to a bigger one! King's cages have some great options especially if you are in the US or you can try Northern parrots if you are in the UK/EU.

[@H2ObarryField]

@@PoodlesandParrots Ok, thank you. We found one on Amazon that seems to be the right size and price. Great reviews as well.

Thanks so much for the tips our sun conjure doesn’t know how to say anything..yet but I have a question do sun conures like apples and black berries or straw berries and I would love to know how to make my sun conjure chip talk

[@PoodlesandParrots]

You’re welcome! Here’s the link to our blog on safe foods for your bird poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/safe-and-toxic-foods-list-for-parrots - Mango loves apples! Conures aren’t known for their talking abilities but more so for how well they can mimic. That’s not to say that a Conure can’t learn a few words, I’ve heard of a few so it is possible. Mango and Mia mimic my laugh and my sneeze😅

[@WiseSilverWolf]

I have two and they both say "papa" and "Reinier" (which is my name) and they whistle alot. They like to be outside of their cage and fly alot. The male one that I have even gives my mom kisses on her lips and both the male and female fly on top of guest and my parents. They love to destroy stuff too and their very smart, they know how to open cage doors.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

That’s so cute! I wish Mango and Mia would say mama 🥰😊❤️ but they mimic a lot of my sounds like my sneezes 😂 (I sneeze like a cat). Thanks for sharing, have a great day!
