Conures

About the Conure:
 
Conures can be found in most of South and Central America. Some species are also well represented in the West Indies, as well as parts of Mexico. In the wild conures are friendly, peaceful birds and seldom fight with each other. They live together in groups of twenty or more birds, even during the mating season, and feed on various seeds, fruits, and insects.

As A PET.......
 
Conures are fun loving birds and make the ideal pet if purchased and hand reared when young!.
They have the ability to become one of the family. They are noisy though so be aware of this now!!! but they do love to play and take baths!!! Some of them will even love taking a shower with their owner!!!
You may be able to teach your Conure to say a few words with practice and patience but they do not generally talk alot....
On the other hand they can learn to do trick quite easily.
When you purchase any of my birds you have my ongoing help as you need it!!! this is not just for your security but for your birds as well.

Breeding!!!
 
Breeding Conures is relatively easy if you give them the correct breeding environment. I am more than happy to help out first time breeders if they purchase a pair of Conures from me for breeding purposes. I have given advice to alot of breeders and do like to keep in contact with people who have purchased from me as well.

Diet.....
 
I feed my Birds Daily and give them a mixture of seed, fresh fruit and vegatables as well as fresh sprouted seeds!!!.
 
Below are the colour of Conures that I have here at the
moment. I pride myself on producing the most vivid colours on all of my birds as you will see.
