    Hi everyone. I have a budgie named Benny that I adopted for the past 5 years now and 2 days ago I noticed something wrong with his feet. They appeared suddenly and I hadn’t noticed it before. He isn’t acting out of the ordinary but these bumps are scaring me. I have been giving him Empson salt...
  2. Budgie Behavior
    We've had our female budgie for 2 years now, we got her a friend within the first year and they seem to get along fine and play/feed each other. But recently she will not stop calling. We can't figure out why this is. We rotate her toys around, she has food/water, we give her plenty of time to...
  3. Your Budgie's Health
    Hello!! I’d like to preface this by saying, as in the title, the budgie in question does not belong to me, and I don’t have any money to take him to the vet on my own, which is extremely unfortunate seeing as I’m certain he requires medical attention and has for some time. It started a few...
  4. 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 have three beloved budgies who are all currently unwell, displaying symptoms such as sneezing, runny stools, and regurgitation.

    Hey budgie lovers and experts! I just got a new budgie yesterday, hoping to put her in my other budgie's cage after quarentine and introductions, but I'm not sure when the right time is. She is very scared today, I have her in a small cage because it is only temporary. The problem is that she...

    Hi everyone, I'm very new here and this is my first post, so please forgive me if I am not posting this at the right place. I had to administer my budgie two different meds due to a health condition - one is an antibiotic and the other is a pro kinetic. I asked the doctor if I can administer...

    Hello! I'm new to TB so I'm not sure if this is how I post but my budgie Kesha has been having a problem with her left leg it started yesterday and I'm not sure what caused it. I tried looking for what it may be but nothing seems to fit. She keeps her left foot up and tries to avoid putting...
  12. Budgie Behavior
    For almost a week now, my 5 year old budgie is puffing his feathers, he seems sleepier than usual, and his tail is bobbing. He is still eating, drinking, preening, and his droppings seem normal, but his lack of energy is worrying me. I put a heater in his room, gave him some probiotics and...

    So I know that when female budgies get hormonal their Ceres turn kinda brown and may crust, which is happening to mine. However, some weird yellowish brown stuff is staining or crusting above her cere on the feathered part. I noticed a tiny feather from that part fell and stuck to her cere. My...

    Hello everyone, my budgie is not feeling well. Today my budgie was wet because he took a bath and he fell down from a height of 1 meter (3.3 feet). I do not know if he landed on his feet or not, but since then he can not stand anymore. Whenever I try to put my budgie on his feet, he tilts...

    I have been attempting to transition my budgie to Zupreem pellets (parakeet size), i’ve got the fruitblend in hopes he’ll pick the yellow ones since they look like seeds. When I hand them to him (in it’s full form) he drops it quickly. I’ve been layering the pellets on top of his Zupreem seed...

    Well, I finally gave in and got my first budgie. At this point, I decided to join this forum to ask for help raising, caring, and bonding with my new family member. Already, though, I think I've made some mistakes. Upon setting up his cage and letting him in for the first time two days ago, I...
