The conure that we had was very noisy and loved water. We left his cage door open quite a bit and whenever he heard water running he would climb down into the floor and waddle through the house to find the source of the water. We took several showers with him.

All of mine love many kinds of fruit, nuts, popcorn and pasta. Good luck with your new family member. Make sure he has lots of toys in his cage to keep him occupied, just like puppies they need toys to play with to keep from getting bored.

By the way a gorgeous bird. Is it a male or female? Do you have a name yet?
