Young pair of green cheek conure

[Rossi]

hello iv just got a pair of green cheek conure
both are dna, but i was told the female is only 11 months, male is 2 years old and hand friendly, they have been togther for 4 months, they sleep in the nest box at night.. so hopfully in time they may breed..

Since the female isn't even 2 years old yet, I would not encourage any breeding by providing a nest box to the pair... the hen may not be physically or emotionally ready for breeding.

 

[SilverSage]

Agreed. Your hen is not old enough. Please remove the box. Please research proper breeding diet, housing, hand feeding, weaning, socializing, how to detect problems in the nest, etc, in the mean time.
