Hi all!! Recently I've developed a bad case of bird baby fever and naturally I checked the site of an avian rescue in my area. I found two bonded pairs, and I'd absolutely love to take in one of them (one pair, not one bird). One pair is a sun and a GC, both female, and the other is one turquoise and one GC, one male and one sex unknown. The rescue is very reputable, and they run a boarding service which I've put my own birds in multiple times and I trust with them completely (which is saying something!). I'm tired so I will just copy and paste the descriptions of the birds:
The sun + GCC (Hedwig and Charlie):
"These two are very much best friends and would love to stay together. Hedwig is an active egg layer and needs to be supplemented with calcium as she has very weak bones. She is an amazingly gentle and affectionate parrot as is Charlie. Charlie is a little more shy but warms up to a trusting hand. Charlie loves to dance. It is very important that these two be rehomed to a musical family that loves dancing and understands the how special these two are."
I thought I could be a good fit for these birds because I'm always playing music, and I love having fun with birds but also am good at respecting boundaries and letting them interact however suits them the best (I have two linnies, so I'm used to shy birds ). The egg layer bit is just a bit worrying to me and I'd want to make sure I can actually take on something like that. What is taking care of an egg layer like? My girl has never laid eggs so I'm not completely confident on what care is like.
The turquoise and the GCC (Paco and Nacho):
"Sweet birds, Paco is a bit more shy but they both step up and are quite nice. Please keep us together!"
These guys have been at the rescue a while and they seem very sweet. And all the birds are so handsome!! I'd love some advice on conures in general, and pairs, and especially on egg layers. I do have two linnies but they keep to their cage of their own volition and I have a nice big space so I can keep them quarantined at first and then separated afterwards as I know linnies are liable to get bullied. Anything helps!!
