rkayem 0 Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) I got my first budgie last summer and immediately fell in love. After just a few attempts he began to get close to me and I felt such joy! But just a few weeks ago he suddenly passed. My world was devastated! I thought I would never want to get another because it hurt my heart so much. But after thinking a while I decided to get another one. I thought the breeder sold me a hand fed bird but I dont think she did. This little bird is so scared and I used the same techniques with the first one.. I read all the forums and hashtaged budgies.. Sometimes he will east some millet from my fingers then other times he scurries away..right now he is sitting watching me type. KInda puffed up and breathing normally. Othertimes he sits up real straight and pants.. Any tips or pointers will be greatly appreciated. Ive had him just over 2 weeks Edited April 17, 2017 by rkayem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eileen 0 Posted January 3, 2019 i think you should first place your hand outside the cage and let your budgie get used to ur hand. if its puffed up its usually a good sign. budgies puff up when they are relaxed or sleepy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
