Pineapple Conure Characteristics
Pineapple Conures are native to South America, they are most commonly found in Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina and Paraguay. They are confidant, humorous birds who are easy-going and warm-hearted. They love to play so a large variety of toys should be provided.
Conures are good-natured and excellent with children; they are easy to train and can learn several words. They grow about 25 cm and live up to 30 years.
Pineapple Conures have lime green feathers on their backs; their chests are bright red with yellow sides. They have red tail feathers and a tan coloured head as well as lime green cheek patches. Males and female are identical, but both make excellent pets.

Pineapple Conure Cage and Accessories
A cage is important for your Pineapple Conure; there should be plenty of room for your bird to stretch its wings and move around, a minimum size of 40x45cm is recommended. More importantly, is a playground or an area where your parrot can be free.
Conures need to be out of their cage to be kept super friendly and at VBC we provide a variety of playgrounds and stands perfect for your feathered friend.
Check out the videos below of our Bird Cage area and some playgrounds.
Breeding & Dietary Requirements
Pineapple Conures are easy to breed; they breed 2-3 times a year between August and October. They reach maturity at 1 year old with each clutch consisting of 4-6 eggs. The eggs hatch approximately 24 days later, and the chicks leave the nest at 6-7 weeks. A cockatiel sized nest box lined with parrot nesting material available from VBC is suitable to use for breeding.
At VBC our Pineapple Conures are fed small parrot seed, we also provide a high-quality crumble for necessary protein and nutrients. All these requirements are sold in our store.
You should also offer your Conure a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, such as carrots and broccoli, as they add vitamins to your parrot’s diet. Fresh, clean water is a must; Conures living indoors require a Vitamin D3 and Calcium Supplement. At VBC we use ‘Liquid Gold’.
