Suncheek Green Cheek Conure
This is Scarlet.
This is what we know about her:
Scarlet is a “Suncheek” Green Cheek Conure, which is a rare mutation of the more common colors. She is 2, and about to turn 3 in January.
She is a happy, silly little conure, who loves to play on her back, will flop over onto her back in your hands, and likes to snuggle and goof around. She does do some chewing of her flight feathers, which her last family attributed to separation anxiety.
She’s young and beautiful, and seems to like just about everyone. She enjoys flying around her home and being wherever her humans are.

***Information that is universal to every bird:
1) Birds are typically not family animals. They usually choose a favorite and at best you can expect them to tolerate everyone else.
2) Birds are not great with kids, dogs, other birds, and are not cuddly with everyone, nor can they really be trained to be. Birds are flock animals, who are social creatures that need to be in a communal area where they can see the rest of the family, or you may eperience serious vocalization and behavior problems. We’ve never met a bird who is great with kids, but we have met kids who are respectful of birds.
3) Birds bite. But, you shouldn’t “take the bite”. If you’re getting bit, you haven’t earned the trust of the bird, and are pushing the bird past his/her limits. You must figure out what the bird needs, and make what you’re asking of the bird more attractive than what they are already doing.
4) Birds are not “dominance” based creatures. Your only option for birds is to earn their trust. If they are, say…on top of a cage and don’t want to come down, that is where they feel safest, not a dominance thing. They are not trying to exert dominance, they just don’t want to come down. Your job as a parrot owner is to figure out what you can do to help them trust you, and whatever you are asking to be more attractive than what they are already doing.
5) NEVER send money over the internet for adoption with any individual or organization for the adoption of an animal you have not met in person. That is almost always a scam.
