After weeks of research and studying I’m finally confident to purchase my first bird, a conure.
There are a few sellers in my area and I have found one at a good price, however the birds seem to have something wrong with their feathers, when I asked he said “yes they do look patchy at the moment because they are slightly older and are busy malting” not quite sure what that means.
They hatched in January.

Are there other questions I should be asking? Such as treated for mites etc?
