Question:
We have recently purchased a pair of Sun Conures that were supposed to be proven producers. We purchased them without seeing them from a breeder in another province, and they were shipped in. When we unpacked them, we discovered that the female has her entire lower breast area plucked naked. We have heard that females cannot incubate eggs properly if their breasts are naked. We have tried to return them, but the woman said that they were only guaranteed to be proven breeders, not in perfect feather. We have no time for incubation or hand feeding from the egg. Is there any sense in even bothering to set up these birds in a breeding flight?
