Gold Capped Conure

The Golden Capped Conure (Aratinga auricapillus) is a native of Brazil and Paraguay.

We have acquired a pair of these beautiful parrots.

They are similar in size and nature to the more common Sun conure.

They are very interesting to have in the aviaries but are probably not suited to an urban aviary environment where neighbours are very close as they are very noisy.

Our pair have successfully bred and raised chicks to the perch in their first year of breeding.
