So I have googled this question but have gotten conflicting answers. I recently weighed Maddox after I began to think he was overweight, and it came to 71 grams which I have read is anywhere from normal to, in fact under weight. Any thoughts?
Is 71 grams a healthy weight for a green cheeked conure?

The thing is some are naturally smaller or bigger just like people. Little Ona is only 59 grams. If he’s a bigger GCC 71 is probably ok. Maybe try to make sure he is getting enough exercise through training and toys to be sure.
Weigh him often and establish a base line for him. THat way you will notice if he starts dropping weight, which is a good indicator that something is wrong. Weigh at the same time every day, preferably right after the big morning poops.
