So I'm new to bird stuff but have been doing my best to do research. Sometimes things are contradicting so I come to y'all asking for help and clarification. We just got a 3 Mos. old Green Cheek Conure this passed Saturday. His name is JubJub. He's still hand fed formula. The store owner that we...
I just took my bird (a black lory) to the vet and he said that an all nectar powder diet is actually not very healthy for them because of the high sugar and they don’t get as much exercise in captivity as they do in the wild.
