I currently have a green cheek conure named Baby. I've owned 2 african greys and a cockatiel in the past. Baby came home in early June and he's 5 months old now. We had him clipped but I'm going to keep him flighted once he molts.

what are they raised on/substrate
diet
age
what does the breeder guarantee
where are they shipping from

Went outside today and I'm positive there were at least 30 dandelions blooming. First thing I thought.... tortoise food!!! Ollie and baby Summer are chomping away. Ollie decided to go sleep behind the couch, so I'll have to go grab him after Summer is done in dandelion heaven.
We feed the torts...
