Conures do not live as long as parrots... Projected lifespan for
Nanday's in a perfect world is 25 years. :-)

JJ was an adult when we purchased her from Wal-mart (who have now quit
carrying live birds thank the gods!) so we have no idea how old she was
when we got her. I understand she was wild caught, not domestic bred.

Close to 20 years was not too bad I think.

I really wanted a parrot until I found out how long they live. One of my
clients had one and I really loved it. My daughter 10yo currently wants a
parakeet and I don't think that's going to happen.
With hope and heart,
