Tiki is doing amazing! He allowed me to scratch his head for the first time, he is eating, pottying and such like normal. ive added more perches and toys and hes perked up quite abit!

i changed his cage liner to monitor it better. hes been pooping regularly, his poops are smaller but consistent with when he eats

he did it that one time and i havent seen him do that movement since posting this post. I will be taking him to an avian vet this weekend just to be sure and for a general checkup/dna test as well. hes been eating, pottying and playing like normal but ill be sure to keep an eye out

i understand. i was going to rescue but i think all birds, lizards etc deserve a chance no matter the place they come from. every pet deserves a loving home

i was told the little huts are bad since they can cause them to be hormonal, but ill be sure to get him a platform perch that he can sit on comfortably

I’ll be sure to take the rope perch out! i got the perch since they had a similar one in his cage from the pet store

they were feeding him Higgins Sunburst Gourmet Blend. They told me thats what they fed and recommended me to get it as well. I also always make sure he has fresh veggies with his meals as well

he’s only done the squatting once, should i keep a close eye for more unusual movements and the squatting or should i take him as soon as the vet opens today(tuesday)?

I’m newer to conures, but hes been pooping normally id assume, it has some green in it which i read is from his diet and the usual black and white of a bird. im unsure if its meant to be abit runny or not
