Pineapple Greencheek Conure: Hilo (hee-loh) 8 weeks :)
My conures tail is all torn and tattered. I’m not sure why. It doesn’t bother him at all. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? His beak is also kind of chipping I read that that’s normal. Do you think it’s connected at all? Thanks :)


Btw its my first time adding photos not sure if it worked

Their beaks do peel and chip, that's normal. The tail looks normal wear and tear probably. If their cage has places that
bump into stuff.. he will get nice new ones when he molts.

Offer baths in shallow dish. And feed a great duet with lots of fresh vegetables. Red chilli pepper is a favorite of most South American species, and a good source of Vitamin A
 
Ragged 'long' tailed younger Parrot = Standard!

Age and a larger cage will help...
