Description

The Green-cheeked conure is a favorite among bird novices because of its relatively low price, small stature, temperament, and relatively low noise level, at least compared to its larger cousins. The green-cheeked conure breeds fairly easily and as a result is readily available. The Green-cheeked conure is one of the smallest conures and is often confused with the maroon-bellied conure (Pyrrhura frontalis) , a close relative. These birds are so similar in appearance that they are often identified incorrectly by pet stores or even their owners. They are the same size, about 10 inches long, and both are primarily green. The green-cheeked conure is a bit brighter in color than the maroon-bellied conure and has gray barring on its chest, fading into a slightly reddish belly. The maroon belly has a golden barring on its chest and distinct, heart-shaped maroon shading on its belly — hence the name. Both have a dark gray beak and feet. They are most easily confused when they are young, before their full color comes in after the first molt.

Conure Parrots For Sale: care and ownership

About conures

The group spans the vivid sun and jenday conures through to the quieter green-cheeked and pineapple conures, which are noticeably softer in voice.

Why choose a conure

Manageable size, strong bonding, playful behaviour and a lifespan of roughly 20–30 years make conures a popular middle ground.

Temperament and personality

Affectionate and physical — many enjoy burrowing into a shirt pocket or blanket. Sun conures in particular have a piercing contact call.

Pineapple cheek conures

Pineapple green cheek conures are a mutated variation of the green cheek conure. They have a tan-colored head, yellow sides, and lime green back feathers. The chest has a mixture of bright red and yellow feathers. The lower beak appears reddish-orange, with a hint of red above the cere. Like yellow-sides conures, pineapples have tail feathers ranging from light red to maroon. Their eyes are ruby red. As described by the American Federation of Aviculture, pineapple green cheek conures first came about after breeders mixed opaline green cheeks and cinnamon conures. The Californian Steve Garvin, who created the first one, named the bird after a fruit, thus giving it its “pineapple” moniker
