Gwayne

Gwayne is a 15 1/2 year old male Green Cheek conure. He loves corn on the cob and pecans. He loves to snuggle in the evening before bed. For a flock animal, he\'s somewhat independent, as he spends much of the day perched on his own, whether in his cage, in his aviary, or in the shower. When confined to his cage, he likes to be by a window, with the half of the cage that faces the empty room covered up. He likes white noise and the sound of running water, too. He takes crazy baths, running in and out of the water and sometimes actually diving in. He'll let you know when he wants a bath.

Dowel or step-up trained:

Yes.

Challenges:

His current owner keeps his wings clipped, as once he figures out that he can fly, he thinks he's the big-man in town.

Vocabulary:

He says Hello when the phone rings.

Health issues:

None
