Sidney Poses
This is Sidney, he is a 3 year old Maroon-Bellied Conure… and our “son”.
Actually, we don’t know if he is male or female… for this species, we would need to do a DNA test. However, his avian doc thinks he is a male.
He originates from Brazil…. we adopted him when he was 9 months old, and I had to train him to STEP UP. It only took a few days… He has come a long way since.
He is mostly outside of his cage, with me… He has gone with us on road trips… some of the places he has been with us.
State of Oregon (more then once) My grandparents live there
Yosemite National Park, California
Carmel, California
He LOVES being in the car, and travels quite well.
Thank you for reading about our Sidney. He is quite the love of our life…
Hatch date: 3/25/05
Adopted by us: 12/30/05
