We picked up Mia at a bird mart a few months ago and love our Sun Conure ! She is such a treat for us and we get a lot of enjoyment from her.
My question is that it seems like her tail feathers are russled a bit so I want to make sure that the cage I have is not causing the problem (ie too small). The cage is 1/2 inch spaced bars and 25" long, 19" wide and 35" high. This size of cage was recommended to us when buying the cage at the bird mart. I have several toys in the cage for her to play with as well as millet that she really is liking.
I have read that tail feathers often get russled from their high level of activity and that once they molt, they will be good as new.
Is this an acceptable size for a sun conure? Can too small of a cage cause tail feathers to get ratty looking?
Thanks,
James
