green cheek concure

[jodringneck]

Hi
I brought a greek cheek concure nearly four weeks old. I want to know how often do i hand fed it. eg 6am 10am, 2pm, 6pm and 10pm. Would that be ok. I have handfed ringnecks before.

At 4 weeks, a GCC is down to about 3-4 feedings a day max. Go by how empty the crop is after about 5 hours and plan accordingly. My GCC's begin to wean at a little over a month and start picking at food around 30 days old.

crop is empty after 4 hours. he/she eats without making a mess. he/she seems to be hungry.

Then 4 feedings would be right for a few more days. Won't be long now hehe.

you honestly shouldn't have bought a 4 week old baby if you have little expirience in raising babies...
