I was thinking about getting a cockatiel only because they’re a lot quitter and I’m worried if I get a conure and he’s loud my parents will be upset with me. My dad read that they poop every 15 minutes which isn’t a bad IMO. But Is for him ig. So I’m trying to still keep him in board. And hopefully I can. I like the idea for the paper. I’ll have to compare the benefits and prices. Thank you for all the help!
The poop isn’t as bad as it sounds, it’s frequent but you don’t really notice.
The sell paper at petsmart/chewey that makes it not smell as bad.
Newspaper also works and probably saves money.
I also will sometimes put hamster bedding on the bottom of the cage and it helps to hide the poop.
If anything, it’s the seeds and feathers that are a mess. Every morning I have to clean up the room my bird is in, and she’s a small one.
