Mitch: I read on line something you wrote about the possibility of training adult budgies.
I have inherited two budgies – about 1-year-old.
They are in a cage and have never been trained.
They seem very happy with each other.
They are very active and chatty.
Why is it so important to understand the differences between bird species?
I’m not ashamed to say we get more deliveries from Amazon (like most Americans) then we care to talk about.
This week a new Amazon driver “Patrick” handed off an envelope then said “I’ve never been here before – this place looks cool.”
What do I feed 3 budgies that aren’t fond of anything except millet and Avicakes and Baked Munchies?
Love your Sunday morning e-mails.
Question … what do you feed the Windy City Parrot Brunch Club?
I have three parakeets and they aren’t fond of anything except millet and Avicakes and Baked Munchies.
Thanks!
I want to buy a budgie, but my mom says that they are birds that can cause “brain paralysis”.
We live in Canada, so I’m pretty sure they’re careful about things like that.
Anyhow, could it be true?
Lori asks
I received 2 parakeets as a present and everything for them.
I found out one is male and the other is female.Â
How would I know if the female is pregnant?Â
It’s important to review egg-laying problems on a regular basis.
The discussion below will focus on single egg-laying instances and prolific egg-laying.
Other aspects of egg-laying encompass egg binding.
This is when the egg doesn’t make it out of the oviduct, the area between the uterus and cloaca on its own.
Another problem is when eggs are laid internally.
Wintertime in NSW Australia
G’day from Down Under,
Here in Tamworth, we are just about to go into winter.
Editors note: that’s early June Endnote
The temperature can occasionally get as low as -10c (14f), usually about 0 to -2c.
I was hoping you can advise me on what to do to look after my two little budgies and green cheeked conure through the worst of it. (more…)
Notably absent from the prior answers (on Quora) are the words “and I inspect my bird’s feet by flipping him over and examining his feet under a magnifying glass on a regular basis.”
As a vendor of bird cages and accessories for over 25 years, we advise people to take the dowel rod perches out of the cage immediately upon assembly.
Actually, my dogs are given mostly a raw diet and I supplement a little kibble.
I have to put her away until they’re done or she chases them from their own food :).
Thoughts, please.Â
Dear Pam
The dirt in your houseplants is more dangerous than the kibble.
