Hello Avian community

[Astrid]

My family and i are previous owners of 2 budgies that passed sadly at their ages of 6 and half and 9. That was 4 years ago. We just adopted an 8 week old conure. He is fully weaned and doing amazing on with his parrot food and fruit. Look forward to learning much more as we enjoy our new baby.

Thank you. We always have lots in the house so will be sure to give him those. Do you give them whole leaves and let him pick at it?

Whole usually , they like the dark green tips of romaine lettuce, swiss chard and others.

I offer slice or chunks of veggies like bell peppers, zucchini, other squashes green beans , cucumber I cut fine the center do they can get to soft part. I thaw frozen peas and serve , a little fresh corn cut off the cob once in awhile.
Mine really love veggies

Oh this is perfect. I had a going list as to what to feed them. Love trying new things and figuring out what he likes. Need to get him away from apple lol. The breeder told us seeds and al1/2 an apple a day as he is a baby, but trying other things.

I might be totally wrong but I think apple seeds are a big no sure I’ve seen @Mizzely say this I hope I am not mistaken

He only gets the apple, I make sure no seeds are in there. I meant the breeder was feeding him a cockateil seed diet with a bowl of apple too everyday
