I have a breeding pair of sun conures. They already had their first clutch of eggs in which two babies survived and now i justsaw my girl has laid 2eggs. I am wondering if there is a difference in the first clutch babies and the babies that are to come. For example will my second clutch be brighter(red,orange,and yellow)than the first babies. Im14 and i love birds

The chicks will turn out however they end up turning out.

If the parents aren't particularly bright sun conures, then their chicks should be very green. Sun conure chicks normally start out green and color up as adults. However, if you have high yellow sun conures, then the chicks may be born more yellow than normal.



I hope the parents are on a healthy diet and you/your parents can intervene if something happens with the chicks where-in they need to be removed from their parents.
