Hey Chirps! Yes, it has been awhile. I trust you have been studying hard? Congratulations on getting a sun conure! They are a beautiful bird.

Congrats on the sun conure, chirperfan! Hope all goes well and he settles in quickly. My green cheek conure, Jasper, is a angel most of the time, but I'm learning to read his moods. Sometimes he's just not in the mood to snuggle and would rather be crazy and attack things. When he's like that it isn't wise to try and snuggle, because anything shiny will set him off.

Hi chirperfan and congratulations! Can’t wait to see the pics. Hope he settles in soon, sure with a little work it will be a wonderful little caricature. How old is buddy? Hope to see lots of updates

i read somewhere that you shouldnt be able to see your birds ear holes,but i can see buddy's really well after he takes a bath and a little bit when hes dry. is this a problem?

You probably shouldn't be able to see them very often when they're DRY, but when the feathers are all soaked and clumped together, they can be quite noticeable. I see my conure's ear holes every time he takes a bath, and the little guy can hear a pin drop outside the door when he's sleeping in another room.

Yeah, it took me a little while to notice where my green cheek's ear holes are, and I was a little surprised when I first spotted them. Now that I know where they are, I see them everytime he has a bath. So maybe you just didn't take notice before? And sun conures like yours are a little bigger, of course, so it'd be even easier to notice them.
