I did not Throw them both in the cage in the first day. And
I dont Care what Sex they are. I am not looking to Breed. I
also Have a Cockatoo and for that Matter I would just get a
Female for him and make alot more money on Baby Cockatoos
then Conures. So, That is not the reason why I got them. And
they do not fight. They are beside each other All day long
Day & Night. That one time the did fight for 1 second I read
on a website saying that is a Mating sign that a Male does.
I also have cockatials and They dont fight and all 4 of them
are in the Cage together Large Cage and I have NO clue what
sex they are. And they do not fight. The Sun Conures Clean
each others feathers thru the day. You might be not like
people breeding bird And I understand that but I am not a
Breeder.
