Purchase an enclosure that is at least 20 inches tall by 20 inches wide and 30 inches deep. The conure needs to be able to stretch it's a wings a little. A cage with a "playground" on top of it is a plus. Place a substrate that is easily cleaned like corn cob in the bottom of your bird cage. Keep the cage in an area that has a relatively stable temperature. Avoid drafts and direct sunlight when you place the cage. Add several perches and chew toys to the cage. Play gyms and other toys are good to entertain your bird when you are away. Feed your conure a mixture of fortified seed, commercial pellets and fresh fruits and veggies. You can also feed spray millet as a treat to your conure. Provide access to fresh clean non-chlorinated water at all times. Change the substrate daily as well as the water and food. Clean the entire cage along with all bowls perches and toys once a month with a dilute bleach mix. Spend time on a regular basis with your bird. They will crave your attention and you should fulfill their desire to be around you as much as possible.
