Great news!!!

She sounds like a little :devil: !!! I'm glad she's settling in though.

Hi and welcome to you and Soxey. He/she sounds like a very normal budgie! I'd also suggest you check out the FAQ's (top of the page). You'll learn heaps from them and they can be very helpfull. Welcome again and enjoy.

Hello and welcome to you and your flock. I hope you enjoy this place, learn a lot and share your knowledge and love of budgies.

Hi Rob and welcome to the forum. You have some really great looking birds there. I hope you enjoy this place as much as I do.

Good Luck to her! A girl who knows what she wants... gotta love it.

Pics are perfect size. What a sweetie!

STOP IT!!! You're now just teasing me. I LOVE storms!!!I can't remember the last time we had a 'rip snorter' of a storm

... I forgot to mention about the cage. Here is a topic Kaz started about cages. I'm sure it will be very helpfull

... congrats!!! (Laughing out loud)

AWWWWWWW He is just divine!!! SPIKE

Hi Deb, and welcome. You have come to the right place... First things first check out FAQ's?. This will give you loads of info and is pretty easy to follow. A budgie is a great first bird pet, but you may have to watch her when she handles him/her. You wouldn't want her to squeeze the little thing too hard... as it may bite in defence... As to one or two? Many members on her started with one, and end up with many more. Especially when they think it's bored on it's own. It all depends on how often you'll be around to keep it company. As to the sex of it/them. Boys talk and don't seem to bite as hard as girls, girls can lay eggs regardless of if they have a mate or nest box... I'd prob go for one or two males, but the decission is yours. As to the up keep, general cleaning (usually weekly), daily water/seed/vegies changes, etc... you'll find most of this info in the FAQ's. Then you have the time you'll need to spend with it to tame it (this will be made eaiser if you get it quite young, just out of the nest and cracking seed) Good on you for going with a breeder than a pet shop. If you find one here (I think there may be some), you could even pick out the young budgie and get them to handle it before you get it. Good luck on your hunt, and ask anything you want!

They are very, very, very cute! I love them all

Good advice by Kaz there! Congrats!!! They all look so well. Good job

Awsome... Looking good!

Oscar and Wilde Nice birds Dave... you did well.

I love storms too! Great photos... but could you send some rain down my way!!!

What a spunk! I love the photo of him flying and the one on the banana... I love a bird with character... and it sounds like he loves you as much as you love him!!!

She is very cute! Hello Helga I'd also say quite young... A long quarintine sounds good, just to be on the safe side. What a horrible person you bought her off. Those poor birds! I'm glad none of them are sick (YET!)

Aw... what a cutie

Just to make sure what? I'm not sure what you are asking? How long have you had him/her for? Is she settling in to your home?

That's still a rescue, good on you... how long have you had it? Is it settling in well?

Sounds Good Dave... and your first newborn for the bunch... Congrats Grandpa :hap:

Sorry for your news Norm. Very sad...

Welcome to our forum. Poor piper I would agree that if she's already showing signs of improvement, thats great. She may get even better, or she may not. If she's eating/drinking and seems happy she may not be in pain. It may be a case of just adjusting her cage to suit her. I hate to burst your bubble... but sometimes they don't make it also. Although it has been two days... sometimes they can look like they'll be okay, and then you find them one morning, no longer with you. Very sad but true. If this does happen, it's not your fault and she prob wont even seem like she's going down hill. Good luck and I hope everything turns out okay. Please keep us updated.
