  1. Budgie Behavior
    Hey guys, so a few of you will already know of my current situation loosing Garth and now I'm trying to make sure Circe is supported in this difficult time. See post here I'm trying to keep a close eye on her behavior to make sure I can catch anything that might be wrong. Garth died on...
  2. New Budgie Arrivals
    I’ve recently got a 8 week old budgie from my brothers budgie clutch in the next room, unfortunately he or she can hear the flock. This condition will be changed soon!... Poor thing. He’s been reacting less to their noises and seems very comfortable with me and accepts cuddles and falls asleep...
  3. Budgie Behavior
    Today I let my birds fly out a little bit and one of them (Dumpling) threw up a couple minutes after he went back into the cage. He does this a lot so I usually avoid letting him out, but today my mom really wanted my birds to fly around. He usually recovers quickly but I just want to know why...
  4. Budgie Behavior
    Hello everyone, Since the last two or three weeks I have been noticing that whenever I feed my budgies the usual seed mix, the seed tray doesn't usually have a lot of husk. Before this started to happen, I always used to blow off the thick layer of husk once or twice a day. But now I never need...
  5. Your Budgie's Health
    for the past few days my budgies dropping have more water in the usual. I wanted to give it awhile to see if it would return to normal on its on and it is still the same. I just want a second opinion and if a vet is the best option since I’m worried about stressing him out. the only usual...
  6. Budgie Behavior
    Evert post I see, every article, every blog, every forum strongly encourages bird owners to clean nests every day as nests get dirty with poop very quickly and can give way to illnesses and bacteria. But just today, I woke up and went to check on my chicks and budgies. And I noticed white balls...
  7. Your Budgie's Health
    Hello everyone, My male and female budgie make these loud clicking sounds when they're biting into the greens. I don't know why. They're healthy, don't have breathing problems, and don't make these clicking sounds when eating anything else. It only happens when they're eating green leafy foods...
  8. General Budgie Talk
    Hi there! Still fairly new to being a bird mom. All the budgies mentioned are young. Long story short: I bought two budgies, possibly siblings, one male & one female, bonded. I loved them so much I bought a third. New male became VERY bonded with 1st male. Got one more male in hopes that either...
  9. Your Budgie's Health
    Hello, I have a budgie who just turned 7y/o. About a year an a half ago he started this odd behavior of biting the air. He reaches out and just makes a biting or pecking motion like hes in a trance and he'll do it for quite a while if left alone. Should I be concerned? He only does this when...
  10. Budgie Behavior
    Hi everyone. I've had my budgie "Marvin" for almost a year now. He's been a complete sweetheart most of this time, except for now he has a very unhealthy relationship with toys and I'm not sure what to do. Ever since I gave him his first toy (a shreddable one) he's been absolutely in love with...

  12. Budgie Behavior
    Munchkin does a strange movement that I don't think is bobbing, crop adjusting, or regurgitating. Almost like pulling her head in towards her body? Tried to get a video of this: https://photos.app.goo.gl/YBXm3zx3VTfLzn8D8 Has anyone seen this type of movement? Does anyone know what this is?
  13. Budgie Behavior
    Mainly posting here because I've sifted through piles of links about budgies and bird behavior over the course of weeks now and nothing I've found has really helped with what's been going on. All right, so my first budgie is named Sprout, who turned out to be a male. He was rather young when I...
  14. Budgie Behavior
    Hi there! I'm minding my cousins baby Quaker (Monk) parrot for a week, and my budgie Ace is acting...strange? Even though we have two budgies, I only bring one out at a time when playing with Ringo. Houdini is pretty aloof, and they don't really interact. Ace on the other hand is very...
  15. Taming and Bonding
    I adopted a 3+/- year old female budgie (who I named Tuppence A. bag) about 6 weeks ago. For the first two weeks that I had her I had to corner her and grab her from her cage in order to give her an antibiotic for an infection she had contracted from her previous owner. After that was doe I...
  16. Taming and Bonding
    I've had budgies for many years and only now I have decided to join a forum. My current budgie likes to cuddle with me, and I've noticed that when he gets comfortable, he likes to rest his beak open on my finger. And just keep it like that. It is very cute but why does he do it? I've never seen...
  17. Taming and Bonding
    Help! We got our first budgie (together, I had one that spent its entire life biting me when I was a teenager) on October 20th. She was a pet store bird but for a pet store bird she was very docile. We let her settle in before beginning to try to interact with her and did everything by the book...
