Caring for Your Jessica
Everything you need to know to provide the best home for your new companion
Diet & Nutrition
Similar to Congo Greys - 60% pellets, 30% fresh produce, 10% treats. They particularly enjoy bell peppers, corn, and berries. Ensure calcium-rich foods like kale and broccoli are included.
Housing & Environment
Slightly smaller cage acceptable (30"x22"x36" minimum) but larger is always better. Needs variety of perches and foraging toys. Enjoys having a cozy sleeping hut.
Social Needs
Generally more adaptable than Congos and may adjust faster to new environments. Still requires 2-3 hours daily interaction. Often bonds well with multiple family members.
Health Considerations
Similar health concerns to Congo Greys. May be slightly hardier but still susceptible to respiratory issues and stress-related plucking. Regular nail and beak maintenance needed.
Training Tips
Often begins talking earlier than Congos, sometimes by 6 months. Patient and consistent training yields best results. They respond well to clicker training methods.
