Can my Conure have rawhides? For example could my conure have a dog rawhide or if I got a rawhide from a butcher shop would that be okay for her? I know I have seen raw hides on bird toys but wonder if they can have it what type of rawhide can they
Rawhide has been and is used in some toys. Most birds (mine included) ignore it. It can be chewed, but monitor to make sure Maxcine doesn't ingest large bits. I wouldn't recommend rawhide from the local butcher.

Hey, so I have a one year old Greek cheek conure. I noticed today she’s been having brown poops, light brown poops. She hasn’t had any fruit or veggies today, but she did have her regular seeds (also have been thinking about switching her to pellets
Yes, this could be just a one time thing. I honestly wouldn't be overly worried at this stage. I would just monitor her stools and if this persists I would get her to the vet for an exam and a fecal gram staining. I agree, I would switch her to pellets. I like LaFeber diets and their website has great information on how to switch a bird from seeds to pellets. ( https://lafeber.com/ )

Hi there! I was just wondering, what is a preening toy for birds?
Preening toys are toys used to satisfy a bird's need to preen. They can be used to distract from excessive feather picking or simply to occupy a bird. They are made using rope strands, cotton strands, fabrics or paper. The link below leads to an example of a preening toy. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/caitec-corp-sisal-preening-pole-toy-for-parrot

I have a 8 month old Black Capped Conure. I have had him about 4 months. I was thinking about maybe adopting another one. I was just wondering would they get along if they were the same type of Conure? I also don’t know what gender my bird is if that
Hello! I’m glad to hear that things are going so well with Rico that you are considering a second bird. Birds are flock animals so they do tend to do well with other birds. There are a few things to keep in mind though, before adopting another bird. The birds should be about the same size, though don’t have to be the same species. This is to reduce the chance of fighting and trauma from a big bird to a little bird. The birds should have infectious disease screenings to ensure they don’t introduce any illness to each other. I’d recommend minimum of a physical exam, fecal gram stain, fecal float, screening bloodwork (CBC, chemistry), and Chlamydia testing. An avian veterinarian will be able to do all of this for you and they may recommend some additional testing based on what’s already been done by the breeder/store/rescue. I would recommend that each bird has their own cage, at least at the beginning until they get to know each other. Sometimes, birds just don’t get along no matter what

I am looking to get a bigger cage for my 2 year old conure. Currently I’m in the market to buy one online that is advertised as a “solid metal cage” coated with “non-toxic hammertone paint” which included stainless steel dishes. I was just wondering
This specific coating or paint is safe and is commonly used in bird cages of various sizes. "Hammertone" is just a description of the finish. It looks like the bars were hit with a hammer to give a textured appearance.
