help #budgie

Hey, I'm talking about Norman, my a little over 2yrs old budgie. He's a boy. He's always been a bird that molts a lot, but it was light shedding for the most part. I can't remember exactly when, but he stopped molting. He was normal other than that. Just like 2 or so days ago he's been losing...

i don't know what to do. ilooked it up and it said to put her foot in cornstarch but i don't have that and the vet offices are closed when i tried to call them. help:((

One of my budgies is seemingly pretty sick, I would take her to the vet, but for personal reasons, I can’t take her, and it may be a while til I can. I’m very worried she won’t make it and I’m wondering if anyone has any advice on what she might have and how I can help her. She been shaking and...

Today I let my budgies out of the cage as normal but I just realized one of them is bleeding from her foot. It must have happened recently because I checked on them about 1/2 hour ago and she was fine. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of blood but she is quite obviously in pain, she’s fluffed up...

So I saw this budgie at petco earlier and was wondering what’s wrong with him and if he can be helped at all. He was pretty oddly shaped and seemed to be breathing hard but that might just be because he was scared. He was also a lot smaller than the rest. I can’t stop thinking about the poor...

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good heater for my budgie's cage. My apartment gets cold in winter, and I want to start preparing. Since I read most space heaters are bad for them, I would love to know if anyone could help me. Thank you so much for any advice!! I really...

Hello, first of all I am glad that I found a community that is willing to help me. Thanks to everyone in advance. My budgie behaves differently, she is most definitely sick. She only sleeps and does not eat or drink. Yesterday she was totally fine. Now she is on the floor of the cage and I am...

So I recently noticed my budgie nursing his right foot and not using it as often. I switched out the cotton rope perch he was using for some plastic one and that seemed to help as he was using his right foot more. Then sometime during the night he fell off his perch. It woke me up so I...

Today, I decided to give my budgie a bath in warm water. I took him out & saw that he started having trouble balancing because he was shaking so much. He also began wheezing, which I cannot explain because I made sure he didn't dunk his head in the water or that it didn't touch his beak. This...

Hey there ! So I just got 2 new budgies 3 days ago . The breeder said that both are supposed to be around 3-4 months of age . But since day 1 I noticed that one of them a female lutino budgie has this dirty vent compared to my other blue budgie …. But she has been really active for the past 2...

I just got 2 new budgies around 3 days ago. According to their previous owner they were on an all-seed diet ( specifically canary seed). So on the day I first got them . I noticed that Sugar, the dilute violet budgie had some feces( quite dark colored and dried up) being stucked on his vent ...

I am a new user (apologies if I do something wrong) as well as a new bird caretaker. I recently decided to take care of my sibling's budgie as I felt quite bad for it (small cage, alone, hardly any interaction, etc.) and I feel that I am atleast slightly more responsible and caring in terms of...

Hi have two budgies taro and gumi, gumi is relatively new like 3 months maybe? They get along great, preening each other, regurgitating for each other and just chilling together. Problem is gumi always chases taro around sometimes flies at taro. Anything taro does gumi suddenly wants to do and...

I've had my birds for a week now and wanted to try letting them have free flight time, as soon as they got out they went for my air conditioners, ceiling fans and wont come back down..They were there for quite awhile and I needed them to come back so i tried to grab them ( I know it was a...

I got my first budgie 2 weeks ago. She was bonding with me and all and then I got my second budgie 2 days ago. I have kept both of them together and they’re happy and all, they’re sisters from the same mother. Now my original budgie has forgotten all the bonding she had with me and runs away...

Hi, I got my parakeet from a breeder. I got her on Wednesday and today’s Sunday. I am a student so I travelled home on Friday and am going back to my apartment today on Sunday. My parakeet is very quiet and I have to handfeed her otherwise she doesn’t eat. She sits in a corner most of the time...
