My conure has been opening his mouth and letting out what I can best describe as a sigh. Is that normal? Should I be worried?

It could be a yawn, which is absolutely normal. Monitor fro lethargy, decreased appetite, abnormal droppings or any discharge fro the mouth. As long as Duckie is behaving normally, there is likely no cause for concern.
