budgie

I read that I could feed cockatiel pellets to budgies since the formula is the same, the size is just different. But ever since I switched them to it one of my budgies has been eating almost every second of everyday. I let them free roam in my room and leave the cage door open. Even then he’d...

Hi guys! So for the holidays, I've been thinking that I would add the first new birdie addition to the family! :D I am so excited, I can hardly wait! COMPLETE EDIT/CHANGE OF PLANS! So it turns out, the breeder in Ohio that I previously mentioned does not ship during winter, which makes sense...

I had a disturbing experience today and realizing that budgies and cockatiels are quite similar in their needs and that so many of us have both types of birds, I hope it's okay that I'm posting this here. Though I also have budgies I am not on any budgie boards. I was invited to the home of a...

Hi, *I orginally posted this on talk budgies, I haven't gotten a reply. This question can go for any bird honestly including ties. I've had my budgie for about 10-8 months now, and he is still not tamed. He has gotten better. But, once he steps on my finger he flys away. I'm thinking if I...

Hello everybody, Today I came home to a terrible surprise. I walked into my room and realized I hadn't put the birds away( I was gone 1-2 hours.). So I put them in their cages and put them to bed. I then took a look at my playgym and saw blood on certain areas. Here are some images of it below...

My younger brother just got a budgie last Monday and I've noticed he is very active because he likes to climb all around is cage to play with toys and he flies a lot in the house. As soon as I saw this, I started to compare my cockatiel and realized that my 'tiel barely gets exercise. He doesn't...

Hey all When I was younger, my parents gave me a budgie for Christmas one year. He was THE most beautiful little bird, I've ever seen - sky blue and white, without a single black spot on him. I called him Angel. I since found out that he was what they call a Clearwing budgie - no dark spots...
