Hi Connie, thanks for advices! It is exactly what I am happy
about my con. - he loves to cuddle, and he is happy when I am
coming home. I am not familiar with birds, bought Mango for my
11 years old daughter, and we couldn't believe how playful the
bird could be! Well, he is alone in cage from 9am to 4pm
generally, and flying free when anybody home. He once a week
plucks feather, few times gave it to me. I thought - maybe he is
missing mate?
I have another question - what is the exact diet for the
conures? Because my bird likes to eat more fruits, rice, peanuts
and frantic for the human food; it eats less pellets and ignore
vegetables. When I am checking in books what kind of food my
conure takes - it seems OK, but I couldn't find the proportions,
and some people keep only pellets diet.
Should it be only pellets diet?
Regards, Eleonora.
