Hello i live in wigan, i joined the ranks of being owned by a parrot two weeks ago, i got an 8 week old blue quaker who has been hand reared and is a joy to have, i also have a chicken who mostly lives in the house and when pippy went near Quizzy's cage he would rush straight down to her and chatter away so i felt he was lonely so today a one year old jenday conure joined us called Milly, boy what a shock that was LOL the cat legged it when she screeched and she keeps waking the dogs up who llok lightly shocked and confused lol

I personally like the noise but after just reading someone had to give their conure up due to  the neighbour complaing i'm getting ever so slightly worried.

I was told milly came with a large cage that was totally suitable, however i seriously have to question some peoples sense of large this is what she lives in...

I have sourced a large indoor aviary for her which i'll get this week sometimes.

I alos run a ferret sanctuary and have many other pets

Incidently which catagory do conures and quakers fit in on the breeds specific forum?

Thanks

I just ordered my car sticker  just have to wait, i'm impatient LOL

I can't find a conure section are they called something else, excuse my ignorance only been a parrot owner two weeks

oh i'm confused now, thought i had joined the forums???

I can see it all again now

Oh right i understand thanks.

This is the new cage, it's the biggest i can accomodate.

 Your new cage looks much better  The cage the conure came in is awful, round cages are a definate no-no.  Well done on finding him and offering him a home, fingers crossed things work out for you x

Oh and just to add, conures are probably one of the more popular birds handed into rescues because of noise issues - They are extremely loud.  But if you can keep the noise quiet first thing in a morning, and last thing at night, and you have reasonable neighbours you should be OK.  Do you get on well with your neighbours?
