I have a joyful budgie that I got on November 6th , he has stripes on his forehead and the store we got him from had said that he was born this year and that they don’t know how old he is. It’s clear he’s pretty young but i’m not even completely sure if he’s a he LOL. I’ve seen pictures online and i guess he’s a boy but can someone help me estimate about how old he is? i included three adorable pictures of him, he already is tame and comes on my finger (when he’s in the mood ofc) but he’s a very happy go lucky budgie and takes a bunch of naps in the day 🙂 also if anyone would like to recommend any tips lmk! i’ve been trying to get him to eat parsley bc he doesn’t like carrots and he’s currently eating a seed & pellet mix , also i got him natural perches as well as the rope perch . his wings are clipped sadly but he’s young and they’ll grow in. any suggestions are welcome )
Your baby is a beautiful little boy and is probably about 12 weeks old. He is absolutely precious!!
