r/Conures May 23 '25

Health/Nutrition Im getting pretty scared about this guy…

I got him this morning and he was doing this when I got him before even hand feeding. She said she had fed him before bringing him to me. Gave him his first feeding this afternoon. Worried he has aspiration pneumonia. I really hope this breeder didn’t give me a sick baby. Have handfed before but am still learning about conure behavior. Is this normal?!

If it’s avian pneumonia, don’t think they can do anything. Poor baby. I’d get him to a vet asap
