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...

Yesterday morning I found my Linda in the bottom of the cage dead. I was so sad, I mad sure...

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...

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...

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...

Hello, I have a female budgie called berry, I get her month and half ago and I didn't have experience with anything, Now she let me to touch her (most of the time bite me lol) anyways what should I do next?

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...

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...

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...

I have a terrier mix and am hoping to get a bird. I also have a gecko who is very quiet and my dog recently noticed him while in my room and started growling. Is there any way to train him out of this? He needs to be in my room during the day in the summer as temperatures get very hot and the...

Hey guys, by now my budgies are not afraid of my hands being in front of them from outside the cage and my male budgie sometimes even bites my fingers, i've tried to put my hand inside the cage with some seeds in my hand but they just look at it and if i move closer to them they get scared and...

Morton Grove, Illinois Hello everyone, My budgie, Sky, flew out the door the moment I opened the door to go take out the trash. It was very sudden and unexpected because all my birds fly freely in the house and we've never had an issue with them wanting to fly out of the house when we leave the...

Hi everyone - this is Milo - we rescued him from outside about a week ago. He was under our daughters car and she saw his bright yellow in the thick grass and we fell in love w him. We don’t know what kind of condition he’s in and we don’t know much about budgies except for having had them when...

Hello! I am at complete loss on what to do with my budgies, and I'm forced to leave my homeland (Lebanon) for good as it has become uninhabitable. In the past year or so we have been looking for solutions to the extent of traveling to a foreign country to giveaway the birds to responsible and...

Don't worry I'm planning on taking her to the avian vet as soon as I possibly can. I noticed that my budgie had a little bit of poop around the vent late last week, and I cleaned it off and assumed it was because she ate a LOT of spinach. But tonight I was watching her and it seems she is...

I recently read that when your parakeets tail is moving, it means it's sick. Sometimes it moves more, and sometimes it doesn't move at all. This all happens when she is just chilling on her branch. I'm taking her to the vet on Monday, and I'm wondering how worrying this should be.
