Hello everyone, Im in quite a situation.
Ive been looking at getting a green cheek conure for years now and im finally in a position to make it happen. I found someone local looking to rehome their 3 year old bird and its exactly what ive been looking for. The issue is that im going to be leaving on a business trip from Nov 6-19 and I don't know if 2 weeks of acclamation with me will be ok before I leave for another two weeks, leaving it home with my wife for the first week (6-12), and then my sister in law to house sit the last week (12-19). If i wait however, it will probably have been rehomed to someone else. Is this a good idea? Or should I pass it up and continue to look for something later on.
For context, I am a married 24 year old who is renting a house with my wife. Ive done lots of research on conure care and have been looking around for a bird for a while now. I work from home so I should be able to give it all the attention it needs day to day. I just dont want to stress it out by having new people show up to take care of it every week for its first month home.
Any suggestions?
