I am thinking of buying a female dusky conure, but she comes with a bird. The seller does not know which breed it is, so it makes me weary…. Anyways, he says “I can't recall how to pronounce his breed, it is a mouthful. It sounds like chimi.... He is basically green with a two small bands just over his beak - one red and the other is yellow. I do know his breed comes in two varieties, green (like him) and yellow. He is very quiet and only makes soft chirping calls. His breed is actually one of the quietest I've ever come across in the parrotlet family.”

Yellow crowned kakariki?

Kakrikis come in yellow too, so your description very much fits. :)

Is it possibly a kakariki (yellow crowned) ? They are a little New Zealand parrot. My kakariki is by far the quietest of all my birds. They are very charming and curious little guys.
