Fruit loaf.

A Greencheek Conure,looks identical to the one we have.

Will eat small parrot food seeds,nuts,grapes,and other fruits.

Both sexes look identical,so unless you get it DNA tested,which is pretty easy,you won't know the sex.

They like to sleep in a small breeding box at night or a felt tent type thing you can get from the pet shop.

Ours also loves walnuts.

If he has lots of bright yellow/red on his chest,he is special,but i can't see in the pics.

I bred them for ages,it looks very tame,but may still give the occasional peck,they like to peck ears....

Thank you Paul for your reply I have breed Aust parrots but this little fellow had me stumped

And there i was thinking " bread " was a term for bird droppings .
