Moving in
Hello everyone.
3 weeks ago I took home 2 budgies from the pet shop. 1 male and 1 female both born end 2019.
In almost 3 weeks they already eat on my hand and they even fly from their cage to my arm outside the cage.
So I have no issues regarding the taming process so far. However, the female budgie is letting things to get a bit more complicated. She often push away the male budgie if he gets too close to her. Also, I sometimes see the female budgie putting the male budgie into a corner as she wants to dominate over him. I feel like he’s singing less these days and I hope he is not getting depressed.
Just to clarify: this is not a costant but it happens sometimes during the day. I also see some loving behaviour such as cleaning reciprocally and passing food one to another.
But I am afraid this situation will get worse over time. Any suggestion?
I do not have space in my apartment for two decent cages thank you.
