    Live Plants for budgies

    Hello again everyone! I would like to add a few live plants into my budgies’ cage. I feel as though it may be an enriching and exciting for them to have a new component in their cage other than new toys. Can anyone recommend some safe live plants for budgies? Thanks!

    Night Frights

    Hi all, I have another question regarding budgies. Lately one of my little guys has been experiencing night fights about once or twice a month. I believe it to be the same bird, but it is hard to be certain given that it is obviously dark. I have their cage covered at night with a dimly lit salt...

    R.R’s Gender?

    I always assumed he was male due to the fact his cere was a tad dark, I mean for sure way darker than Sherbert’s who is a rather bright orange-ish pink. Some have suggested R.R is female and I wanted to know what gender everybody else thinks he is. Hopefully I can get a gender to properly...

    Is this a good diet for budgies?

    Hi everyone, I am looking for some advice regarding my budgies’ diets. I give them ZuPreem fruit blend pelleted food as a daily diet staple. Once or twice a week I will give them a commercial seed blend as a treat, as well as some spray millet. My real questions regard what I prepare for them...

    Fergus and Fiona's New Cage!

    They love it. They can FLYYYYY! (In the cage, as well as out when I open it)! Both especially love the rope perch, and I think it must be pretty comfy.

    A Little Help with Training R.R and Sherbert?

    As some of you know I'm planning on training R.R and Sherbert soon. While my first plan will be to train them to step up, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what I should do after that. I am going to help them with the basics of hold them and letting me have them on my hand and...

    Pictures ...what are pellets, Anyways?

    so i know pellets are better than seeds but why? And how? I really don’t know much about them. At the moment i use a seedmix and veggies (+millet and sunflowerseeds when they’re being good birds) should i be switching to pellets rather than seeds? And what are the benefits? Yesterday i opened a...

    I’m really worried

    i just found out there is a mouse in the house (no pun intended) and I immediately typed ‘mice’ in the search feature. TOTAL PANIC!!! | Avian Avenue Parrot Forum came up. And now i am really worried. I already put the cages on the dinner table, it is a slippery surface so it will be less likely...

    Video Eeek! Bugs in my millet

    I was cutting up millet for some foraging toys and i saw a bug crawling out of the millet...ew This was my first time seeing it so I immediately looked it up and it said to freeze the millet to kill any bugs, but they would still be in there right...so are there other ways to remove them or...

    Pictures My new cage (voting)

    I’ve been looking at cages for the past month, i see them when i close my eyes!:wacky: It comes down to two flight cages i found on amazon, and i wanted to get the AA opinion on them. (It took me a long time because it’s very difficult to find good cages at a good price that also ship to the...

    Return of the Baby Budgies

    Last winter I relented and gave a pair of my budgies a nesting box, in which three eggs hatched. They were great raising the babies, but I was quite happy when a friend asked if she could have all three. I immediately said yes, with the addendum that if for whatever reason it didn't work out, I...

    How do I know if my keets are getting along?

    Hello. I have two parakeets that I rescued from the Humane Society. Both were found in the wild. I have had the first one since April, but it seemed like she didn't know how to play and was very food oriented. We have had the second one for about a month. She's very outgoing and has adjusted...

    New birbs :P

    Just got myself 2 wonderful budgies, Falco and Kirby. They're so wonderful but also scared on me. I bought them from another home and I don't think they were taken care of very well..

    Sexing Lutino Budgies

    Hi, I recently bought a Lutino budgie. Can anyone please tell me what is the sex of this lutino budgie. I want to bring a partner for this budgie as soon as possible. I think its male as the cere looks light pink but I want to be sure.

    Fretting over the inevitable...

    I have two budgies. I never really wanted budgies, they're cool little guys, and for many I have no doubt are great fits, but not really for me. I'm just not a little bird person... I got Daryl the budgie as a sick budgie from a local pet store. Not a good store but that's a little off topic...

    4 little budgies mamas and papas

    I hope! I got my birds over a period of two years. I watched their interactions closely and chose new friends with care, all from the same pet shop. Two are white, two are the classic natural green. I never feel lonely now. Watching their little budgie dramas and comedies are way better than...

    Getting them out of the cage.

    Wow. I really seem to be posting a lot on Budgie Boulevard! I guess I can´t help it, budgies are cute little things!! Okay, back to the point. I wanted to take the babs out of the cage, but I wanted to know if I should wait for them to get to a specific age or anything else like that. I don...

    help - I don't want my budgies to mate!

    Hello new friends, I have two budgies named Ramona and Cheshire. They're sister and brother, five years old, and I have had them since they were about four months old. They've lived happily together in the same cage for all of these years without incident until.. THEY BECAME MASSIVE HORNDOGS...

    Ahoy! I'm new.

    Hey, my name is Veni, I'm a minor and I am a small bird enthusiast. While I'd love to have a magnificent cockatoo, I feel comfortable with medium or small birds. I have 3 budgies, 2 of which are mine! They are my babies. The Green one is Dorkus, and he is a cautious male. The Blue one is Binx...
