The Jenday Conure or Jandaya Parakeet (Aratinga jandaya) is a bird of the parrot family native to northeastern Brazil.
The Jenday conure is a very beautiful bird. While the Jenday has a very loud shrill call they may not have the high pitch of a sun conure.
Like most conures, Jendays are also known for their sweet sociable disposition and playful behavior. These small parrots are highly intelligent, and can often learn several words and phrases, but are not known for their talking ability. Jendays often enjoy learning tricks, and should be handled frequently. A Jenday loves many people and should be with people a lot. Jendays want to be with you and you should play with them every day.
