    How and where in the budgies body is the lice spray sprayed?
  2. Hi, I just read a website and it said: "Don't feed them only seed". I heard that before aswell, but the thing is which fruit and vegies do I give, and how(mashed or chopped up)? Sorry if this is a silly question.
  3. I have thought about the cage problem aswell. Although they have settled in very fast, it took them a day. They are whistling, and fighting over the spots in the cage. Jack keeps on trying to get out, but he can't. Though he managed to get out his neck, I thought he got caught, but he didn't. Jack is starting the fights but squishy always wins. Jack bit squishys tail by the way. thanks
  4. Good on ya! Try calling that manager again, what a rip off store :devil:
  5. good one!

  8. mines are no where near, they are only 3months old

    Jack: 'Cause it just popped into my head. Squishy: My sisters idea
  13. thanks to all of you, I have bought them, but I changed my mind last minute. I bought 2 males. One named Jack and one Squishy. Jack is my fav. For some reason, jack has been acting different to squishy. I got them in a box each from a pet shop and jack has been trying to fly in his box until we got home,squishy was sitting still. But when we got home, we put them in their new cage in our living room, Jack has been flying wildly across the cage, and same with Squishy. So we decided to put an old tablecloth to cover %90 of the cage and that stopped them, we talked to them for about 10 minutes, but then we took the tablecoth off and then jack flew up to the top of the cage. Squisy went to the middle. We put on the radio to a channel that plays classical music so that they relax, and that really helped! I have posted some pics. Jack is Yellow and Squishy is the white with blue at the bottom. http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00080.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00079.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00078.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00077.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00076.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn57/dostol/DSC00075.jpgMy Favourite picture
  14. I will be buying to budgies tomorrow, how can I teach them to talk?
  15. thanks you both for your answers.
  16. Hi, Firstly, I'm really happy to find such a great website like this. I am going to buy 2 baby budgies tommorow(one male,one female). But this is the first time I'm getting a bird, I have researched about budgies for a week and read some of the topics on this website. I would like to know if you can help me about a few things. 1. How do you keep them healthy? 2. What medicines are used? 3. How do you keep the cage hygenic? 4. How do you feed them and what do you feed them? 5. How do we know when they are breeding? 6. How do we get to train them to get in the cage and get them to talk? Thanks
