d a p h n e, Alabama
We raise quality conures in a small South Alabama town situated a few miles north of the quaint city of Fairhope. We focus on well-socialized, happy birds with the vibrant, playful personalities that make conures such wonderful companions.
Our conures are raised in a loving and stimulating environment, where they receive daily attention and interaction. We ensure they are comfortable with people, well-adjusted, and ready to join their new families. Each bird is carefully nurtured to ensure they are healthy, friendly, and confident.
As a dedicated breeder, I take great pride in the care and attention I give to my conures. From providing a nutritious diet to offering plenty of space to fly and play, I make sure they have everything they need to thrive. My goal is to raise conures that are not only beautiful but also affectionate, engaging, and full of personality.
Thank you for considering one of our conures as your next companion. With my passion for these amazing birds and my commitment to their well-being, I’m confident you’ll find a perfect feathered friend who will bring love and joy into your home.

retirement & guardian home program
retirement homes
While our conures love their time with us, we believe in giving them the best possible life, which includes finding loving retirement homes for them after they have served as part of our breeding program. If a family desires a mature, well-socialized conure, this is a wonderful option.
Our retired conures are accustomed to human interaction and have been raised in a nurturing environment, making them loving companions that would be a fantastic addition to any family. We cherish seeing our retired birds live out their best years as the spotlight of a family, rather than sharing time with many others when they remain with us through their retirement.
If this sounds like a perfect fit for your family, contact us to apply.
guardian homes
Periodically, we have availability in our guardian home program. This program eliminates the initial cost of one of our conures while maintaining co-ownership with us to produce a limited number of clutches. Once the male or female has fulfilled the terms of his or her contract, the guardian obtains full ownership. Financial compensation is awarded to the guardian with each clutch.
If a family desires one of our conures without the initial cost, would benefit from a periodic “bonus” for being a guardian, and enjoys a few weeks a year of free pet boarding, this is a perfect option for you! Contact us to apply.
What People Are Saying
Little Bug Conures
“I honestly cannot say enough good things about Little Bug Conures! From the moment we met the Little Bug family, to the moment we picked up our sweet feathered baby, Little Bug Conures made it an amazing experience! They went above and beyond with communication, sharing pictures of the mama conure during her egg-laying period, updates on the hatching and growth of our chosen chick, and they were so easy to talk to!
Our son has severe allergies, and the Little Bug family allowed us to meet the parent conures so we could see if our son had any reaction. Thankfully, our son had no allergic reaction. We went home and discussed what we wanted to do, and I’m so thankful we decided to get a conure from one of Little Bug Conures’ clutches. Our birdie has been one of the best! She has the sweetest personality, is great with our kids, smart, and absolutely beautiful! Our feathered baby is now a year old, and she has been such an amazing companion! Thank you, Little Bug Conures, and I hope to get another birdie from you in the near future!”

“I got our conure from Stephanie and we just adore him. I am a former vet tech, and these are great birds that are well taken care of! They are socialized and treated as part of their family!”
— Kirstin J. [Fairhope, AL]
“We have Dante, the most cool, loving conure in California! He responds very well to training and loves to play! Another thank you for your hard work to get him to us. He is a love!”
— George & Penny b. [laguna beach, ca]
“We got our conure, Sunny, in March of this year and he has been a joy! He is so smart and such a fast learner. By 12 weeks, he was already responding to commands and interacting beautifully with our family. He has the sweetest personality and is awesome with our kids. Stephanie has been there with us through this whole process and has helped in any way possible. She is always a text away with our questions. They totally love these birds and spend so much time getting them ready for their new homes. I really can’t recommend Sunflower Conures enough if you’re wanting a smart, loving conure with a close relationship to the breeder, then this is the breeder for you! Thanks again for all y’all have done for us, Stephanie!”
— Brooke m., Mobile, al
“Our conure, Daisy, is perfection! We wanted another bird for our aviary, and we could not be happier we chose Sunflower Conures! Communication was incredible, and Daisy is absolutely perfect. She is the sweetest bird I’ve ever had. Her temperament is the kindest! She’s always happy and took to our aviary instantly as her new home. We feel exceptionally blessed to have Daisy. She was already trained to step up and was comfortable with her environment when we got her too! Thank you, Stephanie and family, for allowing us to get Daisy. She’s the best bird I’ve ever had. Truly, thank you!”

“This was my first experience buying a conure, and I could not have been more impressed. Anytime I had any question, I was responded to quickly, but to be honest, I did not have many questions because they were so transparent, and I never doubted I made the right choice with Little Bug Conures! 10/10.”
— JP B., TUSCALOOSA, AL
“JP bought Hayes in July 2020. JP did his research on conure breeders. He personally emailed them when he found Little Bug Conures. The owners were great at Facetiming us to let us see the birds. They also posted numerous pictures as the conures grew. The owners go above and beyond caring for the birds. Hayes has brought so much joy to our home. I highly recommend them if you are in the market for a conure. Thanks!”

Aside from ensuring our conures are healthy and well-cared for, we also conduct genetic testing to maintain our breeding standards. This helps us identify any genetic conditions that could be passed to their offspring, ensuring we do not breed carriers of such conditions together. This meticulous approach ensures the health and longevity of our birds, providing you with a robust and happy companion.
