TashandAdz

Thanks very much for the information Kaz! We are looking forward to the day when we can take him out of his cage and give him the freedom of flight once more! Well, around the house anyway Its bloody hot up here in brissy today, Charlie certainly enjoys water!

He has definately found his lungs now Just a quick question, out of curiousity. The pet shop clipped his wings when we bought him on tuesday, how long does it normally take for them to regain flight?

Thanks for all the kind welcomes people. The hardest part at the moment is keeping Winston, our Pompous Persian, at bay, while Charlie settles in. The water spray bottles are coming in very handy

Thanks guys. He has been very quiet the last couple of days, and has just started chirping a bit today. He is still very shy, so hopefully with some patience and some treats, he will open up a bit :hap:

Hey guys! Wow this forum is massive, and massively informative. Thought we would introduce the 3 of us. We are Tash and Adam, and have just bought a budgie, whom tash named Charlie. Charlie has been at home with us since Tuesday, and is still coming to terms with the new surroundings. We are complete bird amatuers. However, we have definately fallen for this little guy/gal. We will be sure to turn to the experienced on here for tips/advice, especially on taming. We have been doing plenty of reading, so hopefully once charlie is settled in, we can get the ball rolling some more. Anyway, here are a few pics. Help with sexing would be great! We were told Charlie was a Male, but confirmation would be nice :hap:
