Hello All-
First post here but I’ve been searching everywhere for an answer and found this awesome forum.
I am about to buy a Green Cheek Conure. I have owned birds previously but that was 20 years ago. I travel for a living. I usually stay overnight away from home three to four times per month. Otherwise I’m home every night. On the nights/days I’m not there my son will come over and spend time with the bird(s).
That is the question though. There are two Conures available from the same clutch. Do I just get the one or does he need the other for companionship? I don’t want the guy to get lonely but on the other hand I’d like him to bond with us and not with another bird and become mean spirited.
I want to do right by the birds(s) but I’m conflicted. I’ll be picking up him/them Wednesday night. Thanks in advance for all your help and advice.
