Can you house 2 green cheek conures together?

If two conures are both relatively young (less than one year old) and have already been weaned, they can probably be placed together in a cage immediately. When the birds are raised together, they are more likely to think of each other as partners and companions.

What happens if you separate bonded conures?

Splitting them up would be devastating to them, and it is very unlikely to solve your problem of not having a pet you can handle. If they were separated but still kept in the same home, they will call to either other constantly. It will be very stressful and unhealthy for them.

Can you separate bonded conures?

I would definetely still house them together, let them be out together etc, but for training its much better to do it one on one. That way you can focus on training that particular bird and work on your relationship and the bird’s behaviour.

Should conures be in pairs?

Habitat mates. Green-cheek conures can be kept alone to bond with pet parents or in pairs to bond with each other. Different types of birds should not be housed together.

Can conures bond with more than one person?

Bonding with a bird is unique but can occur with more than one person in a home. It is important to note that bonding with a bird is lovely, but everyone in the house should interact with the bird to make it feel part of the flock.

Is it good to have 2 conures?

I never recommend getting a 2nd bird for the purpose of being a companion to the current pet bird. If you want a 2nd bird for yourself, this is fine, and maybe the two will get along. But if you get it just for your bird, and they don’t get along, you now have two jealous birds who both need attention.

Should I separate my conures?

Do not give them anything that can be used as a nest – no boxes, bird huts or large food bowls. If you have these birds just as companions for each other, and have no plans to breed them, then it would be best to keep them caged separately and let them play together when they are out of the cage.

Should conures be kept in pairs?

Do conures need to be in pairs?

How do I get my conure to like each other?

When you’re ready for the birds to see each other, simply bring your new bird’s cage into the room. Offer both birds several tasty treats while they are in the same room together. After a few minutes, move the new bird’s cage back to the quarantine area, and repeat the process later.
