Raising a Sun Conure

[Fpippin]

I have a pair of 2 yr. old Sun Conures that laid 3 eggs. All three hatched over a period of 30 + days with only one surviving. I am in the process of hand feeding now for three weeks as of Saturday, March 23. I am using Lafeber's brand. Everything is going well. Up to 84 grams now. It is eating 12 cc's of formula four times a day.

Open to any helpful suggestions as to when to introduce to solid food? I understand I will continue to feed fomular for several more weeks.
Nice to be a member.

Welcome aboard Fred.....can't help with the hand feeding, though I do have & have had suns.....I just prefer to leave nursery duties to those better suited.....
