I have a Sun Conure, her name is Sunny. She is 3 1/2 years old. Her brothers name is Squidward- after the squid character on Spongebob cartoons. Sunny always wants to be with me. She has cruised to the Bahamas twice, been to the Keys 5 times. She wants to go for drives in the truck riding on my finger on the steering wheel. They love to do stuff with you, be careful how much you let it do now, they get spoiled and want it. Dont let it eat dinner with you or you will have it yelling your name, Sunny calls me daddy, to eat with you until you get him to eat, or cover his cage. Best if he cant see you eating. I took Sunny and her 2 siblings out of the nest when Sunny was just getting quills, maybe 2 1/2 weeks old, Sunny was the oldest. We have a male Pacific Parrotlet that is named Nugget. They do play together, but sunny is bonded to Lynn and I. She does just about everything with me. She is alway warning us when there is a racoon in the yard, she has been on my shoulder when trapping and scareing them away. She also tells us when hawks are on the aviaries. We raise parrots, and in the winter Sharp Shinned and Coopers hawks, which are exclusivly bird eaters, jump on the cages and scare the birds. Sunny really yells when that happens. They dont talk too good compared to other parrots. Sunny is a female and females dont talk as good as males, as with many parrots and other talking birds. Sunny eats lots of different foods, besides seeds and pellets. Like chicken, fish, pasta, cheese, fresh basil leaves, and likes drinking sweet drinks. They instinctly look up when outside and let you know when anything is flying, they fear death from above. They even see stuff we cant see I suppose a spy plane or something, they have telescopic vision and can focus and enlarge way off targets. They really dont like flying hawks eagles and vultures, but the worst is giant herons, Sunny flips out when one flys over. Birds respond best to 2 sylabal names like dogs. Oh, dont let it go any where near the cables on a computer printer or anything like that, even extension cords, they will chew and ruin them. Sun Conures are known as the clowns of the bird world. They do lots of funny things, you will see. They like tapping, making music by tapping, they will make up whole tunes. They also like to get in your shirt when it gets dark.
