Welcome to the Green-cheeked Conure Blog! Are you owned by a green cheek? Then this is the place for you. I have provided links to GCC resources, pages, photos, videos, and discussion lists on the Web, and you'll hear about my green cheek, Frodo, and my other birds. Hope to hear from other green cheek owners about their feathered kids.

Chronic Egg Laying



View the online sources below to help demystify chronic egg laying in parrots, how to deal with it, and about the other accompanying conditions it causes.

Just heard about a product that is supposed to stop chronic egg laying. It is called Releaves Dietary Supplement. Though I am not endorsing it by any means, you can order it from www.HEALx.com.
