Sam C. - 2003-09-07 A quick update , Joey My Gcc Is now bathing again,usually in my water cup when I am drinking out of it!
He has been with us for five months and is havign the best time being spoiled. He is sitting on my shoulder right now. ( a position he has held for the past 3 hours while I cleaned the apartment, watch tv, surf the net.
He even sits on my shoulder while I work out, When my girlfriend went to mexico with her family Joey spent the next 9 nights sleeping fluffed against my head on the pillow. He is a curuious little bird. My Girlfriend and I got him together and he has been the perfect pet.
Sam C. - 2003-08-12 I have a young 4 month old green cheek named Joey, He is very hesitant of water and often reuses to bath himself. Leading me to mist him with water, as a reaction to this he often just stands their in the water mist. Or gets scared and tries to run away. Anyone have any hints for me to get my little bird to like the water.
Bradley - 2003-07-29 You asked how long Greencheeks are expected to live. I just read on the internet 20 to 25 years or more. The info was from a Ph.D. Biologist writing specifically on the Greencheek.
Barbra Fish - 2003-07-20 I have a green cheeked conure named Birdie Mae. She is a rescue bird that I have had for several years. I don't know how long a life these little birds have, but would like to know. If anyone out there could clue me in I would really be grateful. She is a great companion and is very loving. Birdie has a little vocabulary and is pretty easy to understand. She loves to bathe and requires lots of my attention.
"Pooki" is just about four months old and he is so darn playful,... he can't wait to be let out of his cage!
