  1. Budgie Breeding
    Hi! My female budgie Olivia had a huge piece of poo sometime in the night, and when she pooped in the morning, that too was really big and it looked like she was somewhat uncomfortable. Most Google articles say she could be pregnant and might lay eggs. We have a male budgie too, so there might...

    Hi, I found this platform while googling the same. My little guy, Lemon, accidentally had his whole tail ripped out. Will he be okay? For context: He and his partner were flying around the house and it was time for them to get in. Lem usually gets in last, so when he does come in first, I hold...

    I'll attach a picture of my budgies nose, it looks enlarged or swollen, though she doesn't seem to have any breathing issues or behaviour changes. How should i treat her to reduce it and what even is this? P.S. this is my first time posting so i may not be the best at describing.

    So, I’ve gotten a new baby budgie recently. Its probably a young budgie like 2-4 months. It’s been 5 days since I had it. I was spending time with it yesterday and saw that his butt (vent) area had no feathers and looked really sore. It had a bit of poop stuck today, so I cleaned it and bathed...
  7. General Budgie Talk
    Hi all, When i was around 13-14 i got two parakeets for my birthday. In hindsight, no child this age should be given such a complex and unique companion that can live for so long considering college and life changes. However, i cannot change the past. Chip sadly died a while ago, my parents were...
  8. Budgie Product Reviews
    I recently visited an avian vet for my budgie's respiratory problem. Apart from medications, vet also said I should keep my bird's cere moist. I wasn't quick enough to ask "how to" then and am unable to contact with them until next week. Had a very effective nasal lubricant and used it 3 times...
  9. Budgie Behavior
    My budgie breathes REALLY loudly right after a flight or after she's startled. She's around 1.5 years old. About the breathing it's like really really loudly. Just like a human would pant. I am taking her to the vet in a few days but I want to know if it's not something really serious or...

    I did not see it happen, but I think my budgie flew into a furniture or wall. He screamed a lot. He was flying from person to person. I saw some blood under his cere. It was about the size of a drop of blood from a normal person. It is dry now. He was shaking his head and rubbing it. He is in...

    My budgie's tail and wing feathers keep falling out everytime it grows again after molting. I've got 4 budgies and all 3 of them fly except him :( so he kinda gets excited watching them and tries to fly himself which usually ends up with him crashing down 😭 anyone know why this keeps happening...
  12. Diseases and Illnesses
    Hello all, this is my first time posting on here. I noticed today that my budgie, Sky, has a orange/red tint on her bottom beak. Some background: Sky is about 3 years old, she refuses to eat fruits and veggies so I buy her a seed mix with dehydrated fruits and veggies mixed in (if anyone has...

    Today I fed my bird, papaya, corn and veggies along with usual bird seed mix. While my bird is playing with me, I saw his poop to be light brown in color. He never pooped light brown. His weight is 30gm (which is his normal since I have him). His normal droppings are dark green. Not sure if this...
  14. Diseases and Illnesses
    Hi everyone, I would like some help before I take the budgie to the vets. I noticed today that my budgie has lost a lot of feathers on his head, his tail feather also looks a lot thinner. He does play with this mirror with beads on ALOT so I am not sure if he might of lost some feathers using...

    Hey I know I've only been posting about my frantic health scares since I've joined this forum. I apologise, but Im a new bird owner and anything I notice is new to me! I've had my budgie for almost two weeks now and only today did I notice this crusty bubbly thing on his foot. I attached photos...

    Hello, today I noticed my budgie (Cheeko) crouching forward and looking intently suddenly, it looked weird to me because he was like that for several minutes. But I was leaving the housing so I couldn't keep watching him. (first two images) I left on some TV and went out, I came back 4 hours...

    Is my budgie dying? Hi everyone, I have an 8 year old male and a 6 year old female. They've both been healthy. They're both bonded to each other but my female budgie can be territorial. Yesterday, they were fighting. I broke them up by scaring them. Usually that works but she was especially...

    Hi I just got a budgie for the first time about two weeks ago and I dont know if this is normal but I noticed my budgie has what look like bald patches under his wings and back (only visible when he stretches his wings). They look dark and white so Im not too sure if theyre bald patches or just...

    Burning diluted essential oils Hi everyone, I know that burning scented candles/candles that aren't beeswax based around your budgies is harmful to them as their respiratory systems are not as strong as ours, but I was wondering if burning a drop or two of an essential oil diluted in water...
