Post: 6 week old baby sun conure

Posted by Caitlyn on 7/31/08

Hello I got my baby sun conure 2 weeks so when it was 4
weeks old its name is Indigo because the beautiful blue
under his wings and on his tail feathers...I dont know how
to wean him off the formula I put the supreem pellets in a
bowl in his cage to see if it will eat them he just pees
and poops in the bowl...lol I know its disgusting but it
kind of funny too!!! Please help I dont know when or how to
wean him and the breeder I got him from told me he has fed
baby birds up til 3 months he lets them decide when they
are ready to wean and I was thinking that was really not
right he told me to keep him on 3 handfeedings a day but
then I see breeders post for sale baby on 2 handfeedings a
day am I screwed up or is the breeder I got Indigo from
just not smart?
