How can I tame two adult budgies at once?
I would rather not buy two bird cages.
mitchr explains:
It’s been recently discovered that the first parrot breeders in North America existed almost 1000 years ago.
Birds on the other hand existed freely around the planet for about 99 million years prior to humans containment of them.
This has become a helluva slippery slope.
0 to 10 budgies in 25 months.
They are in this big beautiful Prevue F050 aviary.
They’ve created their own micro-culture.
Is this a proper budgie cage set up?
First of all you do not indicate the bird’s lifestyle.
Will this be a solitary bird who spends a lot of time in the cage or will the bird be out of the cage a lot and basically used for sleeping?
Why Is My Cockatiel Pulling Feathers From Under His Wings
From: JANNINE P
Dear Mitch
I wanted to ask for your advice.
My male cockatiel is pulling his feathers out from under his wings.
What are the most difficult parrots to keep as pets for most bird owners?
First a little housekeeping.
When we talk about species of birds, it’s important to be specific.
To say that “cockatoos are needy” Â would be inaccurate.

I can’t count the number of times people inquire about the best way to migrate a bird from an older cage to a new birdcage.
A bird who has had the same bird cage, toys and accessories for 10 or 20 years is a phobic bird that you created.

In about 24 months our household has gone from 0 to 9 birds.
Six budgies (2 males/4 females), a female Senegal (surgically sexed) and a male African ringneck (males have the ring).
I fondly call the budgies my little hooligans who have their own cage as does Peaches our 9 year old female Senegal and Keto the newest member to our family, the 17-year-old male African ringneck.
I’ve often said the universe is too complex to be arbitrary.
We brought home a Prevue F040 birdcage for our six budgies, but once built we clearly felt it was too small.
It sat in our living room for about three weeks.
During that time we received a phone call and long story short we ended up rescuing a 17-year-old male African ringneck.
Children are loud, messy, and time-consuming, but every family has 2.6 of them (Pew Research).
I probably spend less time cleaning up after my eight birds in three birdcages than most moms cleaning up after 2 six-year-oldsÂ
or a single toddler
To say that all birds are time-consuming is an unsupported blanket statement.
We have a Senegal parrot and an African ringneck.
Neither is very noisy.
