Conure Possibly Pregnant

[kme3388]

I think my female conure may be pregnant?! She used to preen my male conure all day long. Now she’s sitting in the corner of her cage sleeping almost all day, and fanning her tail. I adore my conures but I don’t want babies I’m sure they have got in a few mating sessions. I can’t watch them every second. She’s eating fine, not sneezing, no apparent injury.

Ruh roh, maybe somebirdie's got a little bun in the oven!! Have you got some dummy eggs around to help out with those maternal yearnings if she does happen to start laying?

I sure do, they don’t look like conure eggs to me. Hopefully she doesn’t know the difference.

Oh I hope they do the trick if needed! They should work if they've got a bit of weight to them I had a devil of a time finding something that would convince Lilly that they were hers, fake budgie eggs didn't fool her cos I think they were a bit too big and the only finch eggs I could get over here were blue and she wasn't buying that either! Eventually I found a nice egg-shaped piece of snowy quartz and, strangely enough, that worked very nicely indeed.
