Welcome to the Best Free Peachfronted Conure Information on the Planet

I've lived with Peachfront Conures Aratinga aurea for 30 years. I've bred 'em, trained 'em, even visited Bolivia to observe them in the wild. For more about me, click right here.

I just got a message on Twitter from someone whose Peach-fronted Conure turned 25 years old in April. Courtney and Ronnie, the first Peachfronted Conures I bred myself, just turned 24 years old on April 16 -- and they seem to be going strong.

This is the first time I've heard from anybody who owned their Peachfront longer than I have, so it's great news and gives me hope that my birds aren't just unusual. I'm very encouraged that this species is potentially very long-lived despite being one of the smaller Aratingas.

Here's a link to my 2012 article, where I estimated the lifespan of Peachfronts to run from around 18 to 30 years: How Long Do Peachfronted Conures Live?

If anyone else has an older peachfront conure, please feel free to get in touch!
