What about the 💩
How much sun light per day would you recommend
Thank you for this video. I live in the Pacific Northwest where sunlight is hard to come by consistantly year round. When there is sunlight im afraid the tempeture will be too cold for my bird. May you or anyone here have any suggestions?
Try full spectrum lighting for your bird, there are lots of great bird specific lamps - check out our blog for more info poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/proper-lighting-for-our-indoor-birds-in-the-winter 🙂
Thank you!
Good to know my only question is usually where I live we get snow so it's always cold within six months of the season we get very little Sun at that time as well, are there any advice on getting them more sun? Also is it good to give them like but we take supplements especially like for vitamin D?
I recommend getting proper bird lighting for those 6 months - this comes in handy all year round. Here is our blog, which will give you all details! poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/proper-lighting-for-our-indoor-birds-in-the-winter cheers 😊
I’m thinking about getting a sun conure and dont have room for his cage to be inside. The cage will be outside but under shade. I will bring him inside for a couple hours than but him back.I want to teach him to fly to me and stuff but idk whether to trim it or not bc i’m scared while i’m taking it inside he will just fly.
Personally, I would not keep our conures outside on a regular basis - hopefully you live in a place that’s warm all year round (like Thailand). I would worry about weather, temperature, predators, etc. I also do not recommend ever clipping a birds weeks this can cause lots of issues like muscles not developing and psychological issues. I think it’s important to have the right environment for a pet bird and doing a lot of research first. Hope this helps!
We are in the winter months in NY. Is there a type of light that would be a good substitute for sunlight?
There are various parrot UV lamps as well as different light kits you can purchase. I would recommend asking your avian vet which one they recommend or taking a look on Amazon or Arcadia ☀️
3 tips for healthy and shiny feathers of your parrot
1. Bathing
2.Sunlight
3.Vitamin A
I subscribed 😃 My green cheek is like a 5 yr old who will not eat vegetables 😑 he will eat fruit and seeds but nothing green. I been watching your videos seeking tips as well for my son conure he/she is just a baby and I have to visit the bird at the pet store until he/she is ready to be taken home. So your videos will be helpful. As for my GCC he is just something else ' I know all birds are different but he is DIFFERENT 👀
Thanks & welcome ❤️ ... fruit and seeds should be treats in your conures diet, you can ease them into veggies by starting with pellets, birdie bread and offering a variety to find out which veggies they like in terms of textures, colours and flavours. You can also try steaming veggies so that they are soft you might be able to get veggies in that way. For example, Mango won't eat pumpkin unless it's cooked along with some others haha
How u bond them together????
great reminder .... my inside birds have been moulting ... need more sunlight .. but far too hot outside ?
Mango has been molting as well! Even a few minutes in the sunshine during lower peak times when it’s not as hot. How hot is it where you live? Perhaps avoid 11am-3pm thats the hottest time for us.
@@PoodlesandParrots. Very hot Summer,now Autumn, still 33 celsius ea.day .. come on winter !
@@mariemcgrath8681 that’s the same weather Mango has year round in Thailand 😜 so before sunset and in the morning would be best times for him to catch some sun rays ☀️
Thanks! My bird has access to 360 degree sunlight through the windows all day but never goes outside. Is this terrible?
As mentioned in the video most modern windows will block the UV from the sun that supplies the vitamin D. Ourdoor time in the sun is great for their feathers, getting fresh air and vitamin D. We put Mango outside on nice sunny warms days by rolling his aviary outside and letting him enjoy the weather :) highly recommend!
I've got a bird that has its wing clipped any tips to grow it faster???
➡️➡️ czcams.com/video/WG-jcB3_mOU/video.html 💛 I would say diet! Diet plays a big role in many situations, lots of healthy fresh foods🥦🥕🌶️ feel free to explore our videos on diet and our blog for more tips. & sunlight or a UVB light 💡💛 Birdtricks also sells an aloe spray that can be helpful birdtricksstore.com/products/featherapy-bundles?rfsn=4048129.56de1
Help meeeee my turkey feathers are so messy and the feathers are so like statue
i found a bird look like a parrot same color but smaller it was attacked im tying to get it to recover and let it go but i dont know the name of bird and dont know what to feed it
I have a care video: czcams.com/video/XMpLru_oQ_U/video.html but all parrots can eat veggies and fruits here is a safe and toxic food list: poodlesandparrots.com/blog/posts/safe-and-toxic-foods-list-for-parrots it would be a good idea to go get the bird checked with an avian vet
@@PoodlesandParrots THANKS ALOT i appreciate i gave it maize thought it will eat
@@PoodlesandParrots im african there are no vets for birds and even if there is must be so far
@@Bestfix_Edits I understand, in Asia we also had to go far to do avian vet check ups. How’s the bird doing now?
Do you steam or cook the chop or do you give them it fresh
Always fresh! Whenever possible fresh is best - large batches can be frozen and thawed out. Steamed can be offered once in a while or as a method to introduce more veggies 🥕

Have u ever heard of a sun conure turning solid yellow.. have been very ill and unfortunately ignored him.. he was alway fed and fresh water.. will not eat fruits and veggies.. any help would be very appreciated.. he has been moved to a window with lots of filtered sun..im sure alot has to do with depression.. can not find anything on him losing his beautiful color
I haven't heard of a sun conure turning solid a yellow but I saw a picture doing a google search! If you aren't able to care for your conure and meet it's needs you may want to consider finding a new home for your bird, I know this can be hard to consider but it's also important to care for your health while ensuring your pet bird isn't being neglected. Even if it's with a good friend or family who have experience and the time to care for your beautiful bird. Juvenile Sun Conures have predominantly green feathers with patches of yellow and orange on their undersides and wings. As they grow older, their green feathers gradually transition to bright yellow. This transformation typically occurs over the course of several months to a few years, depending on the individual bird. The change in coloration is a natural occurrence and is influenced by hormonal changes and genetic factors. It is important to note that the intensity of yellow coloration can vary among individual birds. Factors such as diet, health, and environmental conditions can also affect the overall vibrancy of their plumage. If you notice a sudden and drastic change in the coloration in a Sun Conure, it may be a cause for concern. In such cases, it is advisable to consult an avian vet to rule out any underlying health issues or nutritional deficiencies that could be affecting the bird's plumage. Diet is really important and veggies and fresh foods should make up the majority of their diet, I also have a video on how to get your bird to eat more veggies: czcams.com/video/MGyN4F8sY1s/video.html and for dry food I recommend Harrison's bird foods lifetime fine nuggets.
@@PoodlesandParrots ty for ur reply.. rico is almost 5 years old and was such a beautiful and happy bird.. all u suggested has already been considered.. ty u again
Can you tell specific temperature for bathing
Room temperature is fine which is considered 20-22 degrees Celsius
When you touch the water is shouldn’t be hot or cold but feels comfortable on the warmer side. If that makes sense!
can i give my bird tap water?
We give Mango to drink - filtered water/bottled water but for bathing tap water is A-OK! :)
My bird had lots of pin feathers on her head and she doesn't like have showers something she does and I think she's sick but my mom gets mad at me and says she's not sick and then says do you want to give her up for adoption :c
How old is your bird? I have a video on pin feathers that might be helpful! If you think your bird is sick you should see an avian vet asap here is a helpful article - birdtricksstore.com/blogs/birdtricks-blog/8-signs-that-you-have-a-sick-bird

u really need to fix the amount of volume in your videos. Great content tho!
I'm sure my green and cinnamon conure are all broken 😢 I give them water to drink and they bounce immediately and dunk their heads and body in it 🤦🏽 I give them their bathing bowl they will jump in fluff and splash water then back to their drinking water dunking head 😂😂
