In the past we have had numerous cockatiels and a Quaker parrot. The Quaker hated me, only liked my daughter. The cockatiels were a delight!
Recently, I took in 2 green cheek conures. Don't know their history. Was told they are both male ages about 3 & 5. One of them is slightly larger than the other. Have been Googling and trying to learn about these guys.
They appear healthy, no feather plucking. The beaks and eyes are clear and clean. Eating drinking and moving around well. Wings are clipped. They could use their nails trimmed and their beaks are pretty sharp!!
The have lots of wood, cuttlebone and toys.
I open their cage as much as possible and try to handle them. They bite hard enough to make me bleed!
What advice can you give me to do good by them? They have been here about 2 weeks now.
Thanks

. Hope you’ll share some pictures - do they have names? There’s also a really good thread on bonding and building trust
