Mickey and Sydney
Green Cheek Conures
Mickey and Sydney are green cheek conures that were brought to us. Sydney is slightly plucked and these birds do not get along together. We will be working with Sydney to help her over her plucking issues.
These are the next foster birds, I may be taking just Sydney or both...

Re: Mickey & Sidney
Hmmmm how old are they? I would recommend to have them vet checked first to be sure that you won't bring in diseases.

Hmmm quarantine is not enough I think. I would have them vet checked.
There are diseases that won't surface that quickly.
PBFD is big over here, so is polyoma. You can't really notice this.
Birds can be carriers and don't have to get sick themselves..

I've heard that a regular well bird check up from the vets doesnt cover everything so its best to quarintine....
