It might look like a painted conure, however since it does not have a red stomach it is a pearly conure... which in the photo section in google, if you look up pearly conure, or even "Pyrrhura perlata" it could give you photos of the crimson bellied conure (which has since been reclassified, however there are still sites out there that confuse the terms/name).

I've been doing some research into the Crimson bellied conures, because i was thinking of getting one.

I did come accross a few pictures of a crimson bellied withought the crimson. It had a solid green tummy like the one. It said that it was a subspecies....Sorry, but i don't remember the name of the site, or the name of the subspecies.

Seems things are confused in every way bit and form... From my previous post, I had gathered (from some site) that the crimson bellied conure was reclassified... however I was short in looking for the entire truth, and it was actually the pearly conure that was reclassified, if I have the story straight now!

To put simple however, the pearly conure is a subspecies of the crimson bellied conure.... hope this clears things up!

I have seen Crimson Bellied, and your right. They do have red bellies.

The one on the perch is a very young Black Capped Conure(about 6 mos old) the other one could be the same bird, but several months older. I know because it looks exactly like my Carmen. Blk caps change drastically in their 1st year of life.

Pyrrhura perlata
Sub-species: Pyrrhura perlata lepida

I think this is the same bird. It is a sub species of the Crimson Bellied (Formerly Pyrrhura rhodogaster) I don't know what the common name would be for it though. Outback Aviaries has info on it.
