Mine is the same way, I have a girl pineapple conure, and we do everything together, go to the shops, take showers together, bake together, and share our food together lol...she even sleeps with me :) We are often cuddled up together under the doona, her buried under my neck sound asleep
Thank you for getting your bird a friend. Birds are extremely social and they get terribly lonely when left alone all day. For those who have needy birds, please spend more time with them, gently interacting and playing with them every day. They desperately need attention and a little daily, positive interaction will go a long way. You will discover that these "clingy" birds are less clingy throughout the day when you spend quality time with them. Happy birds are less needy .
i fell in love with a green cheek yesterday at petsmart and he seemed to be very fond of me as well... whenever i went up to the glass he came right to me and acted very cute, but he didn't do it for my boyfriend or my mom... i want him soo bad...!
@2Cuzinz I wish Sonic was still that clingy. He's not like that anymore. We started working longer hours and was concerned that he would be lonely at home so we got him a friend, and the draw back to that is that he bcame less clingy with us =( oh well at least he has a friend throughout the day to keep him company.
@nana2226 I have the same issue, work for our family is taking away from time with out gcc. I can definitely notice a change in his attitude and I need to fix it quickly before he becomes a mad bird. Do you know how birds respond to "new friends" if they are used to being on their own? My gcc is 8 years old
@roofy2k Speaking from my own experience...yes! Sonic was very quiet, but when we bought Eva, she was a full green cheek who was pretty vocal, Sonic started becoming more vocal. Now they both scream in the morning to get our attention
We got our Green cheek last year, and the breeder warned us that all parrots require LOTS of attention daily. We are able to give ours hours of our time each day, which makes him a happy bird. I really am glad we chose this breed, because they're not very noisy, and are very affectionate.
He is so cute and calm. My green cheek is always running, climbing, jumping, preening my hair, sitting on my head, diving into my shirt, and getting into all kinds of trouble!
Aaaww! So pretty! He's a yellow sided conure, am I right? My Conure has to at least have me in his line of sight or he goes to find me lol. They're clingy but cute little birds.
Yes, they say not to get two because they will bond and then you will not be able to bond with them.
Everyone says to only have one as your buddy. Mine sleeps all day and eats his food. When I get home we play for an hour or two, eat dinner together and I will rub his belly when I am on the couch.
I have a green cheek also. She's soo cute and doesn't really press up against my arm. But she LOVE to climb all over you, eat your hair, play with any earring or piercings you have. She also loves to sit on your head. Its her favorite perch. Heh. Her name is Eden. I love her. :]
My conure follows me around, for example Ill set her down in the kitchen on the counter then go walk off into the living room. Then Ill turn around and next thing I know theres a bird flying towards me.
aaaww...birdie love:) my GCC doesn't have to be with me at all times but when he wants to cuddle, you better cuddle him! if you try to put him back on his cage and he's not done cuddling, he truns himself into a little ball and bites you until he gets more cuddles:)
Thank you! Yes he is very sweet. A few months back we got him a mate, another green cheek conure to entertain him while we were at to work, now he doesn't like to hang out with me anymore, he just wants to play with his playmate which makes me so sad =( but I guess its good for him to have a friend
@nana2226 Once they pair up they really don't need us much. I separated my pair so they interact with us and can play with each other during play time.
@nana2226 woow ur conure is so cute .. i m getting one this month ..u know i had 1 lovebird he always used to play with me but bcoz i got another lovebird for him... they always play with each other now he plays with me but not let me touch anymore :(
He has a little more color than a normal green cheek conure. Usually green cheeks do not have a maroon belly, but ours has yellow and marron on his belly. Sonic is about 1.5 years old and has a huge attitude for a little bird. We are actually thinking about getting a second one to keep him company =)
absolutely beautiful! Chester, my GCC is clingy like that also. He always wants to be right next to us and now that he's free flight, it's hard to say no! :)
these birds can be extremely clingy, especially if you let them grow their wings out. They'll fly to you any change they get and just want to be with you all day. Be prepared for this, if you decide to get one. They are alot of fun, but sometimes annoying if you don't want to be bothered. Hehehe
well we had a lil parokeet named Cici and we loved him dearly, he passed away in July, he was clingy at times but could also be independent. My dad is home during the day so the bird won't be alone of feel alone very much, i think my parents wouldn't mind the clingyness.
lol mine does that too!!

Jasper, my GCC also does that, but he's just as happy zooming around the house with his little pal, Charlie, a Canary-Winged 'keet.
