You’re probably thinking “How is Friday-Wednesday a full week?” I got her late Wednesday and recorded the first full day (Thursday), so Wednesday technically marks one week that I’d had her.
Also, does YouTube seem to make uploaded videos darker than the original? I swear the video was brighter on my editor.

how do you know it's a she?
I love my little cinnamon can be so sweet and then likes to bite follows me everywhere ❤
I have a 15-year-old GCC named Baby Girl. She was no doubt abused as a chick. she also has "gimpy feet" ( gimpy is a southern us term for disabled/messed limbs, legs, and feet.) I haven't been able to touch or pick her up w/o her slipping away and hiding. even with bum feet, she can still move fast as well as fly fast. I use a hand towel to cover her up. the awful cry from her will break your heart when you touch her in the towel to pick her up. I love her anyway, we're buddies to the end. She and my 21-year-old Quaker Parrot, named Coco are BFF. they cuddle up to each other quite a bit. They visit each other's cages and share food and treats. She has to feel very good about her buddy and trusting him. he is the only one she will let get close to. Baby Girl is friendly to me, not a talker or touchy-feely but I can talk to her and her body language I can read like a well-read book. She will sound off more now. It's a shame that someone mistreated her as a chick. She is a sweetheart. I should be able to handle her just like this lady is doing in her video. I've left their wings alone and untrimmed. I don't like that idea of trimming flight feathers. My birds are out of their cages all day since i retired 12 yrs ago and they love it. Pop has no schedule these days and they don't either.
Im on the fence about getting a sun concur as my first bird, I just have dogs (they are good dogs) but they play and roughhouse I dont want the bird to be frightened
Any tips on a 14 year old adopted GCC? He gets on me if I have food but otherwise not so much.
Lost my 13.5 year old GCC on Aug 19, 24. Thank you for sharing
My wife just adopted a pineapple green cheeked conure. He’s very sweet and a little shy but day 2 he trusts us to pet his head. I’m going to buy the popsicle sticks today and the clicker. Tomorrow I’ll have my wife try the millet step up with him. I learned so much from your video because I’m still new and learning. I hope we can get him comfortable enough to try the harness. my wife had a sun conure growing up.
how is it owning a greek cheek conure ?
Please don't clip wings.
What a good baby!
Woah. You look like Donald Trump.
