Our birds all have very unique personalities which have developed over time, based on individual interactions, handling, and group interactions. Additional variables work to shape each individual birds' personalities, which include rehoming experiences, potential aggressive cage mates in a previous home, new handlers and families, and new flocks. Some birds may have experienced trauma and neglect or mishandling which also affect behavior and may make them more nervous or flighty during handling.

​

All of our Conures are hand tame. They range in ages currently from 8-months old to 4-years old. All of them have bonded into a flock of 8 birds, despite all coming from previous homes and handlers. They all spend time together as well as individual handling time with family members and other people. This process creates trust and facilitates bonding and confidence in both people and new environments.

​

Our birds will typically go out into public spaces and classrooms either as one or in groups of two to three birds dependent upon the classroom and/or environment. They are quiet birds and love human interaction.

​

Etiquette and behavior in a classroom or other public space is typically based upon where they are and what the environment may be. Our birds wear diapers and do not fly. They are bonded to us, and handlers remain present with them to monitor handling and interactions. Conures are social creatures who enjoy interacting with people and other birds and animals. Our Conures will enjoy just being touched and held and fed. Sometimes they are content just sitting on a finger or a shoulder or on a desk. They are sweet and benefit from any form of touch and affection. That benefit is returned ten-fold by their presence and energy when interacting with people, especially with those who may be struggling on some level with emotions, or feelings or anxiety. 

​

Birds bring happiness wherever they may be.

​

Birds do have beaks and talons, so those are two elements we just monitor carefully during handling to ensure the comfort level of people during handling.
