Funny How to stop sneezing

Not allergic or anything. Whenever I sneeze he gets scared and will often try to fly and strand himself on my floor. I would like to eliminate all sneezing to end these transgressions against him. Has anyone found a way to stop sneezing?

Advice Day 23 of spending time with my grandparents conure

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Sorry for the late post, but we're back in business! The eggs have been removed, and Stella is doing well! I decided to get back into the habit of handfeeding her to get her over her fear of hands, and she seems to be really trusting with me!

Oh, and some of the problematic family members were visiting yesterday, so I took the opportunity to try to teach them proper etiquette with her, reminding them that when she starts flapping her wings and beating on her toys, she's upset and would like them to step away.

I also stuffed another cottonwood ball and set it on the open door of her cage to encourage her to venture out more. What else am I doing that I can improve on?

That’s how it gets dirty so fast. And how the food gets all over the floor. Such gooberism.

This is a follow up! As I have eight items missing still, it is only partially set up. I have a few wood ropes and birch toys coming in.

I plan to add more perches once he is settles but this is the current set up!

Advice Tips please for eating

Post image
Upvotes

Had my girl for 4 years and first time I’ve had the issue, just got back from a 2 week holiday (friend looked after in my home) and for 2 weeks prior to that she was at my sisters whilst I did some decorating.

Neither mentioned lack of eating and when I came home could see pellet dust so looked like she had.

However she’s not eating any pellets the past few days nor veg that I’ve offered her. Feel she’s upset with me leaving her for so long! Have gave in and gave her some seeds as I’d rather she eat.. how can I get her diet back on track rather than her retaliating and starving herself

Otherwise I think she’s normal, attachment issues back to normal with her

Tax attached

Cage Setup Needing ideas for the new set up

Post image
Upvotes

Ignore his current set up as it was cleaned yesterday and set up for sleep only.

Near 20 all need varied wood branches come! Grape, birch, apple and coconut wood to replace his perches (something I have been wanting to do for the longest but Ive been able to finally do 🎉🎉)

along with 8 new all woods varied toys so I can get rid of the bits and bobs with bells, unnatural colors and fiber strings. (I know I have some in frame but they are being rid off 🎉🫡 my family gives them to him and I dont have many all wood toys until now)

I also got new stainless bowls as he keeps breaking the plastic ones and the single water bowl is not enough for his soup making.

We do not use the bottom door so that is space for branches too.

Essentially, show me some set up ideas!

This is going to be a massive upgrade but he has been slowly introduce to variety perches that he does not like the poles currently in and prefers textured.

Editing to add: If you saw my last post asking if he knew how much I just spent on him, yes this is why. I just did drop a pretty penny on him for this but it is worth it. Before asked how I do this: I just saved so much per payday so I am able to do massive hauls on cybersales :D

Injured Bird Nail bleeding

Upvotes

PLEASE HELP ❗️

I cut my bird's nail too short a few hours ago, we put flour on it. However I held pressure on it with a tissue so it probably wiped away.

He was bleeding so much I think, I got so scared and my parents got mad a me for crying. My dad said to just leave him in his cage to let the bleeding stop.

He seems normal after a few hours and my dad says the bleeding stopped, but im too scared to check on him in case he starts moving around in his cage. Last time I checked on him was around 30 minutes ago and he was moving like normal.

Should I take him out now ? And how to I stop the scab from re-opening ? Also i can't clean his cage till night and i cant tqke him to the vet. I'm very sorry I know i was being irresponsible I'm still very scared, I just want him to be safe.

I am really proud of my conures space. I have spent alot of money and time designing the space for my sun conure Uli (sounds like Julie without the J). Her door stays open all the time except for bedtime. I have a camera on the other side of the room so I can watch her when I’m at work. I just wanted to share with others and of course pictures of the girl herself!

Other Update on Ziti the foster bird…

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

Ziti is the bird we’ve been fostering for about a month now. No owners have come forward and we’re really thinking they were abandoned on purpose.

To refresh your memory, they were only about 50ish grams when we got them, and now up to 63!! We’ve gotten bloodwork and found that liver looks good (very long beak so we were concerned - yay!) but has a phosphorus and calcium deficiency (which jives with the theory that someone wasn’t taking care of them and abandoned on purpose).

Our vet is so enamored with Ziti that she baked some bird bread and human cupcakes and asked us to come to the clinic on her lunch break for a gender reveal. It was adorable!!

drumroll

Blueberry in the birdie bread means Ziti is a boy!!

Advice Advice on moving between houses with a conure

Upvotes

Hi guys, first-time poster. Soon I'll have to start moving back and forth between my mom's and dad's houses 50-50, so every week I'll switch. I have a conure, Tallulah, who is currently afraid of the carrier. I'd like any advice on carrier training to getting her comfortable at the new house. Info: her cage at the new house will be the exact same size, set up, and orientation to the room (across from my desk) in order to keep her comfortable. Anything helps! Thank you!

Health/Nutrition Is this normal beak growth?

Hello! A few days ago I noticed my bird Noodle's beak looking weird. Is this normal keratin growth in his beak? He is about 5 years old and I have not seen it look like this until lately. He has been on the same pellet diet and eats his fruits and veggies regularly. Should I add more calcium to his diet?

Advice pet sitter in need of advice!

I'm currently pet sitting for my boyfriend's cousin while he's out of town for the week and he has a birdie. I believe Ziggy is a conure after looking it up, and while I was given a good amount of tips and info from his owner, I'd still like to know more to get him better acquainted with me and I also have a few questions.

To tell you some more about Zigs, he is a bit of a biter but I believe that's common with most birds. he didn't trust to come up on my hand until the second day, (it's the 3rd currently) and now once he's on me he doesn't really want to get off haha. I bring him to his downstairs cage during the day and every time I step out, even just to go to the bathroom he flies after me and lands on my head or shoulder. I can't tell if he likes me, or if he just doesn't like to be alone. he also loves country music, which can help calm him down when I leave him in his room (like if I go take a nap, to take the dog outside or when I'm eating/cooking.)

any tips would be appreciated!! thank you in advance!
