  1. Diseases and Illnesses
    Good evening all, one of my budgies is showing signs of having scaly mites on the Cere, including lethargic behavior and scratching on objects. I was recommended Ivermectin and I've checked our local stores and vets, none sold Ivermectin, they did have something called Curamectin which is...

Got a big cage, I’m really willing to learn and put the work in. we got them yesterday and I’ve been stood at the cage talking to them for pretty much most of the day I’ve been in changed the food and water...

    Hello everyone, recently I’ve noticed some red spots on my budgies head along with some what seems to be crust around her bottom, I was wondering if anyone knew of anything or if I should go get it checked out. Thank you!

    This is my first ever post here, I only joined today,,,, but Ive just noticed dried blood on my budgies wing. He is very friendly but doesn’t like being held by his whole body for very long, but after a while I was able to hold him for long enough to see a small patch of DRIED blood on his body...
  5. Determining Gender
    Hello A while back I came here to get a second opinion on my budgie’s gender. You all agreed she is a female. We are a year further and her cera still hasn’t changed to brown. Could it be that we wrongly gendered her? I went to the vet a few days ago he said she acted and looked like a girl but...

    Hey there! My budgies got attached by a monkey this sunday, one of them flew away (came back 2 hours later, thanks to God), other one somehow escaped from that monster's hand and got injured. His foot got bit swollen and his tail was snatched by that monster. Also, his one wing is not helping...
  7. Diet and Nutrition
    Hi all! Hoping all is safe and well with everyone here! So, regarding switching our babies from seeds to pellets, our vet advised us to leave the pellets inside their cage four times a day for thirty minutes whenever I do. According to the vet, the concept is to introduce them to small...

    Hello, I am new in this community, I am so worried about my pet. I will take any advice from you. My parrot started sitting all fluffed up yesterday evening. I thought it was cold and did not pay attention, but then it started having a diarrhea. I put child's electrolytes and it drunk it and...
  10. General Budgie Talk
    I've had my budgie for about 3 months now, and I feel like he's a lonely budgie, as I had got him as a single bird. I considered buying him another budgie, which might make him feel better, but I originally bought a bird as a single (eventually tame) pet which would be my friend and main focus...
  11. Diseases and Illnesses
    Hello This is my first time on one of these forums, but I'm becoming worried about my budgie Caesar. He's probably around 2-3 years old. Up until a few months ago I had two birds, however one of them, named Tari, passed away. I was aware she was sick, tail bobbing, being inactive, vomiting and...

    (Image attached is admittedly a poor angle but the only one I have. Hopefully you can see what I’m talking about) I have a two-year old (M) budgie. About a week ago, we purchased some oat grain that was advertised as being budgie safe and I started sprinkling it into his food as a treat—we...

  14. General Budgie Talk
    Hello TalkBudgies! I've had my boy Speckle for three years now, and I dearly love him. But, I'm afraid that I haven't raised him or cared for him like I am supposed to. I did little research before hand, and have given him little time. There were periods where I have been very consistent with...
  15. General Budgie Talk
    Hi! I’ve been keeping Blu for two weeks now, he seems to be somewhat adjusted. When I put food in, he ate from my hand and hopped over without fear! Today, earlier, he seemed a bit lethargic but he ended up hopping around his dowels! For some reason, he’s not chirped today. Normally he’s...
  16. New Budgie Arrivals
    Hello! I’m currently in care of my brother’s parakeet while he is away. I’ll have Blu (the budgie) for two weeks! I wasn’t able to keep his larger enclosure as I don’t have a lot of room, but if anyone has any suggestions on how to make him feel more at home, I’d appreciate it! His transfer was...
