I just thought that I would add a comment here about my conure....
Apparently taco was hand fed from birth, and not taken from the wild,  His
privious owner are a pair of wonderful breeders who were trying to mate
him.  After searching for three years for a female, they gave up on ever
finding Taco a lover, and soon after decided to part with him.  In the last
week or so, our first month together, things have been pretty good, the
he is so affectionate that it is hard to believe he is not a person.
Anyways, he still is not playing with anything, and screams as soon as I
leave his sight, which is getting to be hard to deal with.  I have been
covering him when this happens, but the only effect is that he now hates
towels and attacks them.  I really hope that he learns to not get so upset
wehn I am not available...

Peace and happy birding,
eric
