Description
Wanted: A Sun Conure
I got my Sun Conure as a brand new hatchling 20 years ago.
His mother would not care for him, because of her age and inbreeding,
so I took him in.
In picture #1 (in my hand) he was 2 days old.
In picture #2, he was an active month old baby boy
Picture #3 shows him (and a lovebird) at 15 years old
Picture #4 was taken a month ago... he was 20 years old.
There is a hole in my life, because he died this week of a stroke.
The Vet explained it was because his Mother-bird & Father-bird were siblings...
inbred both, and they were 40 years old when they laid this final single egg.
Genetic heart condition is what they explained.
I live in Tucson.
I am Vito... 71 years old, and needless to say I am a bird lover.
If someone can help me find a Sun Conure, please contact me and tell me the details.
