• Minimum cage size: Around 24″ W x 24″ D x 24″ H for a single Green Cheek Conure; bigger is always better.

• Playstands: Offer climbing gyms or stands with toys and foraging cups.
• Training games: Step-up practice, target training, recall, and simple tricks stimulate body and mind.

Grooming & Health

• Bathing: Mist or shallow bath 2–3 times per week for feather condition.
