conure feeding

Hey everyone, this week I got a 2.5 month healthy gcc. He has been very happy, and we have been cuddling and the bonding is going great so far. What I am slightly confused about though is the feeding situation (We hand feed). I'm not sure if I'm over feeding or I'm doing ok . We got a lot of...

Hey guys!! About two days ago I purchased a 7-8 week old sun conure. Very cute but he’s not really playful yet...he’s mostly sleeping all of the time or sitting on my shoulder doing nothing. My bird is always sleeping is this normal? The bird also never really eats himself, he tries to but...

I recently purchased a Green Cheek Conure and he is now 7 weeks old. Unfortunately, I was not told about the taboo of buying a bird before it is weaned and he was sold to me anyway. I am currently feeding him Exact Bird Formula (10 ml 3 times a day; morning, mid-day, and night) and I'm sure he...
