Are Green Cheek Conures quiet?

They are the quietest of the popular conures, which is why they work in many apartments and shared homes. They still make short contact calls, especially at dawn and dusk, and they will call out if they feel ignored. See the honest comparison in our Green Cheek Conure noise level breakdown and in our Sun Conure vs Green Cheek Conure guide.

Daily care for a Green Cheek Conure

Cage: at least 24 by 24 by 36 inches, larger if possible.
Diet: about 60 to 70 percent pellet, 20 to 30 percent fresh vegetables and a little fruit, with seeds and nuts as treats.
Out of cage time: at least 2 to 3 hours each day.
Enrichment: foraging toys, shreddable items and a snuggle hut, since Green Cheeks love to burrow.
Sleep: 10 to 12 hours of quiet, dark sleep.

What does it cost in the first year?

Cage: $250 to $600
Perches, bowls and toys: $100 to $250
Food: $300 to $500
Avian vet: $200 to $500
Emergency fund: $500 minimum

Is a Green Cheek Conure right for your home?

Green Cheeks suit many households. They are small, they do not need a huge cage and they are quiet enough for most apartments. They are also social, so they do best with someone home for a good part of the day or a routine that includes real time with the bird in the morning and evening. They can be playful and a little mischievous, and they will chew toys, paper and anything else within reach. Households with very young children should supervise all interactions, because a frightened conure can nip. If you want a loyal, funny, cuddly companion that fits a modest space, a Green Cheek is hard to beat.

Single bird or pair?

A single hand raised Green Cheek that gets daily time with its owner bonds closely and is often the cuddliest choice. A pair will bond to each other, entertain each other and may be less interested in handling. Some owners choose a pair so the birds have company while they are out. Either works, as long as you decide in advance, because the two options lead to different relationships.

What to look for in a healthy baby Green Cheek

Bright, clear eyes and clean nostrils.
Smooth, tidy feathers with no bald patches.
An alert, curious posture and a willingness to step up.
A good appetite and well formed droppings.
Fully weaned and eating on its own.

Your first week with a Green Cheek

Keep the room calm and the routine steady. Offer the same food the bird ate at the aviary, then change it slowly. Cover the cage at night for 10 to 12 hours of sleep. Sit near the cage, talk softly and offer small treats through the bars. Most Green Cheeks settle fast and soon begin to greet you, bob their heads and ask for attention, which is a sign that the bond is growing.

Which Green Cheek color should you choose?

Best value: Normal or Yellow Sided.
Most popular look: Pineapple.
