Pocket clowns — playful, cuddly, and full of mischief.
Conures (green-cheeked, sun, pineapple, and cousins) pack big-parrot personality into a small, snuggly body. They love riding in hoodies, wrestling with toys, and being in the middle of everything. Green-cheeked conures are relatively quiet for parrots; sun conures are gorgeous but LOUD. Adopted conures often come already hand-tame, making them a fantastic step up from budgies and cockatiels.

Famously so — many conures love burrowing into sleeves, hoods, and blankets and being scratched. Green-cheeked conures in particular are known as some of the snuggliest small parrots.
Green-cheeked conures (including pineapple and cinnamon mutations) are usually apartment-friendly. Sun, jenday, and nanday conures are not — their calls carry for blocks.
Often yes with careful introductions, especially with other conures. Always supervise mixed-species time — conures are bold and don't realize how small they are.
