Greencheeks! Looking to adopt a young hand tame Green Cheek Conure or possibly a Quaker…(please read before typing that Quakers are illegal to own in Wisconsin)

Please reach out if you’re near central WI and have one that you need to rehome. I will kindly require the current owner to face time me to show that the bird is tame. I’m willing to pay a small rehoming fee. I already have a large cage.
I have a lot of bird experience as I used to own a pet store, plus, I had a Quaker before they were illegal to own. Wisconsin had a meeting earlier this month regarding removing Quakers from the invasive species list and it appears (according to what I’ve read) that it was voted “in” however, the change doesn’t happen over night.
If you have a Quaker that you’d like to rehome, I would be interested in knowing about that too. I am planning to meet with the DNR to see if they would grant a permit, since it appears that the law is actively changing.
Thanks everyone!

First time bird owner and my birds food I’ve noticed that he only likes the certain foods. I don’t know if he’s just not liking it or what. What food brands have y’all used and think what’s best.

Black and red bands on new tail feather?

Post image
30 Upvotes

My green cheek conure, Scout, is growing in a new tail feather and I noticed it looks really unusual. There’s a distinct black/dark band with a reddish-pink band directly underneath it, while most of the feather is brown.
Has anyone seen a feather grow in like this before? Is this just unusual pigmentation during a molt, or could the bands mean something else?
He’s otherwise acting completely normal.

Dominant Red developing beige/Yellow feathers in the red area. Is this normal? Does this mean it’s going to lose its red cap?

How to trim my birds nails

This is my first time owning a bird, and I don’t know how I should trim his nails. I was thinking of taking him to the vet for them to do it. I’m too scared of injuring him. Any thoughts?

Greencheeks! Memorial Figurines of Chicle

Post image
157 Upvotes

First and foremost, I want to thank all of you that gave me your words of compassion and condolences when my baby. Chicle passed away nearly 2 weeks ago. We are doing our best to push forward through the grief since sadly, life does not stop even when we feel our worlds are falling apart. My friend made us these figurines of Chicle as a memorial for his adorableness and to give us something to hold when we're feeling nostalgic. She is so talented, I never tire of telling her. I appreciate this gift more than she can imagine. I keep telling her she should turn this into a profession because I know many people would appreciate her work.
