I just got my new Jenday Conure, he's still a baby (not exactly sure how old he is) but I was wondering what kinds of vaccinations I should get for him and what the average cost of the vaccines usually are. I've faced some terribly overpriced Animal Hospitals but since I know more about the average cost of a dog or cat vaccination I'd like to ask for your help!

Also, my little one loves perching up on my shoulder and hanging out with me. He does seem a little skittish though. I think the place where I got him from definitely had a stressful environment. I was wondering what the best ways to handle him were and to get him to bond with me? I know these questions may have billions of different answers but any kinds of suggestions would be great! Thanks!

I have already replied to your other post but i did forget to mention that conures hanging out on shoulders is a favourite past time. Call them 'velcro birds', they will live on your shoulder if you give them the chance to! They're a highly needy bird for such a small one but treated right they make fantastic pets.
