Hi Susan,
Looks like were are neighbors.
 SW> hey!  yep.. i fell victim to the Bird Mart and brought home a baby  :) 
 SW> he/she is a Patagonian Conure ... named he/she Shatzi  :)
 SW> i have one concern however...  his beak is warm... and sometimes he 
sleeps
 SW> with his head pointed to the floor
Not to worry. Warm beaks are O.K. Different birds sleep in different 
positions and not all birds sleep with their head tucked under the wing. I 
have a Sun Conure that sleeps hanging on the side of the cage.
Patagonians are really beautiful birds, in my opinion, and probably the only 
"pair" of Conures that I would want to have. Keep us posted on your progress 
with your new friend. I think that you are the only person using Parrots that 
has a Patagonian.
