Conure Brown Throated behavior

Brown Throated Conures are average sized Conures, and like other Conures, they are related to Macaws.

Brown Throated Conures are intelligent, and both the male and the female are capable of speech. As is true with any parrot, there are never any guarantees that an individual will talk, regardless of whether or not they are a species that is known for speech. But among Conures, the Brown Throated Conure and its related subspecies are known for their ability to talk. This record deals with the subspecies Aratinga pertinax aeruginosa, though some other subspecies of Aratinga pertinax are also referred to as the Brown Throated Conure. Like the other subspecies, Brown Throated Conures may be very affectionate and loving pets if they are well socialized and handled frequently. Brown Throated Conures tend to form close bonds, but often they choose one member of the family to bond with rather than bonding with multiple people. The Brown Throated Conure may be very loud and can be prone to destructive behavior. They need to have plenty of toys to keep them from growing bored. Boredom is often the most common cause for destructive behavior. As with most Conures, the Brown Throated Conure loves to take a bath, and should be given clean bathing water and/or showers regularly. The Brown Throated Conure has an average lifespan of 10 years, though with proper care they can live to be 25.
