Does Anyone Else Have A Bossy Conure?

I am just curious to know if anyone else has a bossy conure! My Tuck Tuck thinks he is boss and will even chase our female Goffin off of her cage and he's very protective of Mommy to the point of chasing off other birdies if he thinks they get more attention. It cracks me up that such a small bird has such a fierce attitude and all the big birdies let him get away with it.

Oh yes.
But my Miss Jasper the GCC prefers the word Diva to bossy, and you know we must give her Highness her way!

my patagonian used to be bossy until she met wasabi, my new quaker parrot....
now, she submits to him, which is quite funny

she still yells at the cats and runs them off from wherever they are that she thinks they shouldnt be

gotta love her!

LOL Well that is good to know! We hope to add a Sun to our family so it will be interesting to see what happens then.

My Tuck Tuck just kills me when he takes over Lilly's enormous cage and she never even chases him off! I always kept him away from the "big boys" because someone had told me that a larger bird might hurt him but he's just not afraid of anything!

I am with you!

And the smaller ones have what we, in our house, call "little-man syndrome".
Hehehehehe
