Entertainment needs

You don't have to worry too much about entertaining these birds day and night, however they love to be talked to and are very content to spend an afternoon on your shoulder. If you do put your bird in its cage, be sure to to stick some toys, like bells, in the cage as well.

Mutations

Green cheek conures are primarily green, with a gray breast, dark head, maroon tail, and blue flight feathers. There are many beautiful mutations. These are not hybrids, but rather the results of genetic experiments. The most common mutations include yellow-sided, cinnamon, pineapple, turquoise, and dilute.
