  1. Hi, welcome to the forums. If you want a budgie to be tame, l agree with kaz that it is easier with one. It is possible with two but will take much more time and also alot more patient. Check out the FAQs section for alot of good information on taming, also there is a ton of more tips in the taming and bonding with your budgie section.
  2. Hello, welcome

  6. Yes I actually PM'ed birdluv as thats where the questions in this post originated from. However, she has not replied to my PM. Thank you for the in depth reply and suggestion, I will certainly employ some of the methods you suggested. At the moment they are not *fully* flighted. When we purchased them they were both clipped, one more so than the other. Sammy can only hover a bit, while Scooter can go 4ft up if he wants to. I may consider keeping their wings clipped until they are more bonded with us, but I am afraid having to lure one in my hand, and flip them over to cut their wings will make them lose trust in us.We took the birds to an avian vet several weeks back and actually had the opportunity to have them clip their wings again. We declined, but perhaps that was not the best decision. Had we gone through with it we would have been able to observer the correct way to clip their wings for future use. I got the pm and I sent you one too I asked the avian vet to show me how to clip my birds wings, so when l clipped them to tame them l would cover them with a towel to help calm them down and not be terrified of my hand or me.

  8. pretty bird it reminds me of this bird a male painted bunting bird.
  9. Bit far for me too, since I'm in Canada Good luck.
  10. iceberg lettuce is not good since it is mostly water with little nutrience. The darker green lettuces such as romaine lettuce is a better choice.
  11. I'm very sorry for your loss. As to the vet he should be ashamed and reported.
  12. I will sometimes use Photoshop too but l like to use coral painter essentials 4. I also use Photobucket editing.
