A Sun Conure Parrot Named Sunny

Anna Hart asked:


A Sun Conure parrot named Sunny. Who could resist such a cute parrot? There he sits on the end of a branch; his head turned nearly 180 degrees toward his back; his dark shiny eye peering at you with a knowing look.

A bright Sun Conure parrot named Sunny. If you have ever seen a Sun Conure parrot, you know exactly what I mean. If you have not, let me describe one.

Description of a Sun Conure Parrot

Sunny, the Sun Conure parrot, is a stunning bird, dressed in a shimmering, hooded shirt of gold with a sun-kissed, orange face. His wings and tail are shades of green and blue, mixed with a hint of gold. The Sun Conure parrot is only 12″ long, including a long tail. Its beak and feet both are black. The eyes are dark brown in a white circle.



Personality of a Sun Conure Parrot

A Sun Conure parrot is a playful, inquisitive bird. Owners can’t seem to find enough words to describe these little bundles of sunshine, but they try. A few of their favorites are:

* Active

* Comical

* Cuddly

* Curious

* Cute

* Energetic

* Entertaining

* Feisty

* Fun

* Loving

* Spunky

Playtime for a Sun Conure Parrot

A Sun Conure parrot’s playtime is comical, to say the least. It loves its owners, and it loves to entertain them. Given a multitude of toys and a swing or two, the Sun Conure parrot will swing, jump, climb, and call out to you as he shows everything he can do. Even without toys, the Sun Conure parrot will develop its own tricks, just to play. It has a very high energy level, and sometimes appears to be a bundle of golden perpetual motion.

Appropriate Toys for a Sun Conure Parrot

Sun Conure parrots enjoy chewing aggressively, and will need several wooden toys to destroy. They will destroy them, too, reducing a medium-sized wooden toy to bits and pieces in a few hours. They are not as eager to play with puzzle toys, probably because they have so much energy to harness. Provide toys that call for activity and “letting off steam” and they will be happy.

Sun Conure parrots enjoy chains, ropes, and other things from which to swing. They love loud bells, but be sure you do, since a Sun Conure parrot will ring it incessantly at times. Rotate the toys every couple of weeks so that your bird will not become bored.

Appropriate Cage for a Sun Conure Parrot

Sun Conure parrots need room to fly around and use up their surplus energy. A website that recommends bird cages according to the size of the parrot, such as Bird Cages, will help you get a large enough cage. Generally, a 20″ x 20″ cage, about 3 feet high is good for a Sun Conure parrot. The bar spacing should be between 0.75 inches and 1″ so that your parrot cannot get its head stuck between the bars. To give your bird proper exercise for its feet, install 3 different perches in the cage, each made of a different substance.

The Sun Conure Parrot’s Talking Ability

Generally speaking, most parrots can be taught to talk if the owner follows a proven, consistent course of training. The Sun Conure parrot is not the best talker, however. With patience, you will be able to teach your bird a few words. With care, you will also be able to teach it not to screech for attention. It is common for Sun Conure parrots to screech to greet the day, and to end the day. In between, your bird should learn to be less vocal. Some have found that their Sun Conure parrots like to imitate beeping tones.

Food for a Sun Conure Parrot

The Sun Conure parrot does well on a basic diet of organic pellets. Organic pellets give your Sun Conure parrot a balanced diet in every bite. Avoid seed-based foods, as the parrot will pick out the seeds and leave the rest. The result will be a malnourished parrot.

In addition to organic pellets, give your parrot the variety it craves by providing fresh fruits and vegetables. Sun Conure parrots usually enjoy apples, grapes, melons, and oranges. Among vegetables, they will eat things such as broccoli, carrots, corn, lettuce, and peas. Keep seeds and nuts as a special treat.

why is it so hard to find yellow gold wedding rings?

Filed under: Fashion & Accessories — wood_rings @ 9:51 pm

Corporate Mom asked:


I’m allergic to silver, white gold, or platinum. I LOVE silver toned jewelry, but I just can’t wear it. I had to put my wedding rings in the jewelry box because they broke me out so bad. We are looking for a yellow gold set, but everywhere we look, all they have is white gold or silver, or they have very few yellow gold sets to choose from. Can anyone suggest a good jewelry website that has a lot of yellow gold jewelry?

How do you feel about married men/women who don’t wear wedding bands/rings?

Filed under: Marriage & Divorce — wood_rings @ 8:30 pm

Toni B asked:


I know that some people don’t have the funds for wedding rings and such and this is not about that.
Do you think it should be an unwritten code of marriage that a man/woman outwardly display that they are taken?
I need an answer to break a tie with a friend who seems to think it doesn’t matter.

Entertaining Friends in Basement

Filed under: Art And Entertainment — wood_rings @ 12:14 am

Mitch Johnson asked:


Most of the boys have a loud nature. They like to wrestle and tumble and make noises. They cannot sit quietly for so long. So it is always necessary to keep some mattress on the basement ground to prevent the boys from hurting themselves. Find out in this article what are the other necessary things in your youngsters fun game.

Less noisy but still lots of fun is a “Jar Ring Toss.” A board about twenty-eight inches square is prepared by driving at an angle twenty-three nails three inches long part way into it or by screwing into it little right-angle hooks like those used to hold curtain rods. Each hook is given a value of twenty-five, twenty, fifteen, ten or five points. Figures can be cut from a calendar and pasted on.

The board can be hung against the wall or set on a table. Its center should be about shoulder high. The players stand ten feet from the board. Each is given twelve rubber jar rings, which he tries to throw onto the nails or hooks having the highest numbers. The players throw three times in a play and rotate four times. It is well to mark the rings with crayon or paint so that each person may identify his own in counting the final score. “Miss the Bell” is a game that’s fun and easy to arrange for. A bell is suspended in a hoop about eight inches in diameter and a small ball is given to the players. They take turns tossing the ball through the hoop without causing the bell to ring. One point is scored each time the ball goes through and three points are scored if the bell does not ring.

“Basement Button Snap” is our glorified version of tiddlywinks. Draw two chalk lanes about a foot wide along the floor and supply each player with two buttons. One he places on the staring line. With the other he snaps the first one down his lane to the goal as soon as the signal is given. Snapping consists of pressing the edge of one button with the other in such a way that the under one flies ahead. If a button leaves its lane it must be put back at the starting line and snapped on its way again. Obstacles over which the buttons are snapped add interest to the game. The player who first drives his button to the goal wins the game.

“Barrel Toss” is a good game for a change. The players stand about twenty feet away from a barrel and throw stones or wooden blocks into it. Each may have five throws and a point may be awarded for each stone or block that goes in. The throwing line may be put farther back when the players are experts.

Boys always like to wrestle and tumble and practice rolls and falls. These lads will have endless fun if you put an old mattress on the basement floor. The boys will need no rules or encouragement to start their fun. They’ll soon create their own contests and maybe get Dad to join the fun.

For children old enough to play with sharp-pointed darts, here’s a homemade game that is fun. Make three darts by cutting the heads from matches. Slit one end so that a piece of folded paper about two and one-half inches square can be slipped into the slit. Into the other end of the match force the eye-end of a large sewing needle. A circular target whose outside circle is not more than fifteen inches in diameter is drawn on a wall board or a piece of heavy cardboard and hung shoulder high on the wall.

The players stand about eight feet away from the target and each tries to throw the three darts so as to pierce the target as near the bulls-eye as possible. For each dart that sticks firmly in a space the player receives the number of points marked in that space. Nothing is counted for darts touching a line.

Turn your youngsters loose downstairs where the walls won’t mar and the floors won’t scuff. The kids will have fun and you will enjoy the quiet order of your living rooms.
