sun conure

My precious sun conure, Rio passed away in their sleep last night. They just turned 1 a month ago and we never got to get a DNA test for them. Rio was always different compared to my other sun conure, Sonny. They were always wobbling and falling, never stable. We took them to the vet so many...

My baby Apollo (sun conure, seven months) has always had some feathers that stick out on his head. They don’t seem to be hurting him and when we took him to the vet after we first got him she didn’t say anything about them. He’s already molted once and the feathers continue to stick out. Is this...

My sun conure Rio has much less feathers than my other conure Sonny. They’re both basically the same age and it worries us that they have so little feathers! Does anyone know what could be the cause of this? (P.S we don’t know the genders of our birds yet, we’re hoping to get a DNA test soon)...

We got a baby (8-9 weeks old) Sun Conure just yesterday, this is our first time getting a second bird and getting one so young. We have another bird at home, a Quaker parrot who's about 9 months old and has aggressive and territorial tendencies. We've tried to keep them apart from each other...

we had two beautiful Sun conures born together lived together loved together for 10+ years almost 11 years. We just lost our beloved boy just over a week ago. Coconut was such a loveable clown acted like he thought any day he would finally grow up to be a real human boy...big hole in our hearts...

I just adopted a new sun conure about a month ago, she’s about two years old, and she was a return and the store owner didn’t say anything other than that. He told me she’d be hard to get out of her cage but after she’d get out she loves to cuddle and step-up and whatever. When I brought her...

My baby sun Conure (about 5 months) looks like he has a purple sore on the skin around his eye. So far he’s been acting and eating as normal but I’m fairly certain that a nasty looking sore is NOT NORMAL. What is it, and should I contact my vet?

Hi everyone, I recently purchased a sun conure. I will be able to take him home in a week since they are still trying to wean him. In the meantime I'm trying to prepare everything and would like some advice on a good and affordable cage. Would like to try to keep the price range around 300 and...

Hello, I have a 6 month old Jenday Conure(Mango, wings clipped) and a 3 month old Female Sun Conure (Zazu,flighted) They are caged separately and supervised when they are out together. They preen each other, the Jenday conure seems to try and feed the Sun Conure without regurgitating, one...

This is Simba, a 7 year old surrender female whom flew to onto me one day while I was checking out the bird store and she was attacking someone trying to get her out. Apparently she chose me. Ever since we’ve been very close. Thanks for letting me join the forum and I’m learning as I go but I...

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if cold pressed juice made from cayenne, ginger and lemon is safe for birds? I want to mask the flavor of antibiotics for my sun Conure. It is organic and cold pressed, no artificial flavors added.

Within the next year or so I'm looking to get my first personal bird within a year, so no rush. For a long time I was dead set on lovebirds, because they are so sweet and I love the sounds they make. But after spending a few hours on some different threads I'm really drawn towards conures. What...

Hello! First time posting here. This is my first bird. My Sun conure is 2 yrs old and I've had her since she was 6 months. I have her on Zupreem but currently trying to switch her to Harrison's. She has a very large cage and plenty of rope perches and safe toys. Her feathers are completely...

I have 5 birds, two parakeets that live together, a Sun Conure and adopted Jenday Conure, and an African Grey that I’m currently fostering. My Jenday, Marvin, started out as a foster in June and we officially adopted him a few weeks ago. I’ve had my Sun Conure, Stevie, for about two years and...

Hello and greetings from New York. I recently acquired a beautiful sun conure, and was told by the old owner he was about 1 yrs old. He said he believed he was hatched in May 2018. Is there any way to really tell how old he is, to be sure I have a young, and not an old sun conure? I am just...

I would love your help and opinions on which bird I should get! The three choices are Sun Conure, a GCC or a Quaker parrot. I am experienced and know everything about what a bird lover and owner should. Setting : I live in a rather large house and have had a ringneck and I did not think that...

My sun conure went missing the evening of Monday 7/22/19 from Converse, TX (San Antonio area). He has a silver identification band around his left ankle. I have his id number, but does anyone have experience with how a finder could be able to locate me with that number? I cannot find a database...

First time using this forum so i’m hoping i’ve posted in the right section and have done everything right. I have a 9 month old Sun Conure and yesterday I noticed that her droppings had gotten smaller and were less frequent than normal. They don’t smell and they’re the normal consistency and...
