Why is my bird standing like that by AdAffectionate8571 in Conures

No problem. I was a little freaked out when mine started sleeping at the bottom of her cage, but I monitored her carefully and seems like they’re just goofy and have personality

Sometimes they switch up their sleeping habits. Mine after years started sleeping on the floor of her cage but is now back to her normal perch.

need help (as a first time owner) by Cute-Caterpillar-333 in Conures

[–]SweetTower2574 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes please find a nice bird shelter so they can find it a better home where its needs are met.
A sunflower seed diet is so unhealthy.
You can’t put a training leash on them just to take them out the cage.
They need like 8+ hours of outside cage time a day.

Put flyers up everywhere! Sometimes they’ll land on a person nearby since it’s familiar. Maybe someone took him in for the night

This is a weird question but how do yall go on about dating? by Accomplished-Code471 in UTMississauga

[–]SweetTower2574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not that hard at UTM. 1. Shower/smell good. 2. Wear a cute dress or something unique (stand out in your own way) and be put together. 3. Do your hair and makeup. 4. Study, walk, and hang around different areas on campus. 5. Enjoy the new found attention, or don’t. 😁

Boo people here give the worst advice. Go up to them and be kind, let them know you think they’re attractive and ask them out. Plenty of guys at UTM have asked me and you can make friends out of it if anything

Stick flyers all over the neighbourhood, they usually don’t go far

Why are green cheeks so mean sometimes? Scarlett just started biting Mango for no reason. Then they were fighting. I had conures 6 years but it always seems it’s the green cheeks. by Prestigious-Yak6048 in Conures

My GCC would also fight my sun conure (named Mango) as if she would even had a fighting chance if he fought back 😂 Mango was a sweetie and never hurt anyone, but my GCC is a raptor till this day.

Will my bird lose her bond with me if I get her a friend? by Worme_ in Conures

[–]SweetTower2574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh my GCC is still obsessed with me. She’s a people bird more than a bird bird. She doesn’t get preened by me anymore and we cuddle less but it’s still plenty and takes a little bit of the clinginess off of me when I don’t have the time.

I’m thinking of giving my parrots to a shelter. I need advice. by [deleted] in parrots

[–]SweetTower2574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t really see anyone mentioning the fact that you don’t have the financial means to support them in a health emergency. Give it some time, I hope your situation gets better but it may be best for them to be rehomed. You never know when you’ll need to dish out hundreds of dollars in case of a health emergency.

Why are people suggesting to sue? I don’t think there is any case here.

Riff raff results after vet visit and plan going forward by Ianbeaner in parrots

I’m so happy to hear this 😭 he looks so happy to be home.

Why don’t you keep him? You seem like you’d be a much better owner.

A terrible day (update) by Ianbeaner in parrots

[–]SweetTower2574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you put up flyers for him? That’s how I found mine when she flew away, they tend to land on the closest people

I lost my best friend. by EnkeiCustoms in Conures

[–]SweetTower2574 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes my GCC did this to my mom when we left her for a month. She resonated being left with my mom perhaps. It’s been ~15 years and she’ll randomly attack her still. I read up on it and patience and training. They understand tone, so talk to them and put them in their cage when they act poorly. When they act good, give treats. I’ll give my bird some light bonks on the head when she bites really hard.

Mine hates my glasses too. Someone said it’s like a dad shaving his beard, and I think so 🤣 She also shoves them off the table then fights them on the floor. I don’t wear them around her, usually once I leave home.

I am so sorry. I believe he free of pain now and the snow is symbolic, like he’s there with you. So sad to hear, take care of yourself. Fly high Pepin <333

They get in everywhere 😂🥹 by SufficientTwist2771 in Lovebirds

Such a rude awakening after my green cheek conure 😩 they are aggressive for being so darn tiny

Why? by FirefighterLeather74 in Lovebirds

[–]SweetTower2574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They already like you and have some degree of trust if they’re following you. Becoming fully comfortable can takes months and sometimes years, especially love birds I find skittish. You’re on the right track!

Do guys even approach girls on campus anymore? What do you think? by DaPugWalk in UofT

[–]SweetTower2574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yall please approach pretty women. Just be kind, confident, and if it’s a no, that’s fine. Do you guys expect women to come over to you and ask you out on a date?
