I keep sun conures not GCC but I think similar. Sun show signs of maturity at one year old, like the regurgitating and attitude but it is really the second spring after hatching that things get interesting, there is a chance that breeding may be possible at 2 years old. It is as 3 year old that real maturity happens and breeding is more likely.

Thanks for the info he is just 3 now and as spring approaches he has changed a little Mommy is his favorite person and will spend time with others reluctantly. We weren't sure if getting Keke had anything to do with his new choices. But this could be the reason. We only have one GCC and s/he is not DNA tested so I guess time will tell which sex s/he is but as we are never planning to breed it is not a problem.
