  1. I reckon it's a little boy Adorable!
  2. Yes, it looks like a he. Same name as my budgie, too haha
  3. Maybe a she? Sort of hard to tell...
  4. It's great that you told her Good job.
  5. Wow, awesome toys, guys! I'll have to try making some of them for Beanie, he loves toys (more in a 'i-can-destroy-this' way, but never the less...) haha

    Try making your own toys, like a carboard toilet roll stuffed with treats, etc. I made one for my budgie today, and he loves rolling it everywhere before trying to peck at the treats.
  7. I'm happy to update the progress on Beanies destructve behaviour. He is now doing very well, i've put all sorts of natural things in his cage, which he happily tries to climb on and then munch on for a while. :rip: He has stopped tipping out his water and food, which is a great start, as that was the main problem i wanted to solve :sadsorry:
  8. Cute photo :sadsorry:! Congrats, very well taken! :anim_19:
  9. Congratulations! Such a cute photo :sadsorry:
  10. Thanks, everyone, i'll make sure to try all that
  11. Haha! Oh such a cute video! I love the cute little budgie harness ring for him to pull the car! So sweet!
  12. So sorry for her losses
  13. I also have one of the loop-ring toys for my budgie, and over 2 years - nothing has ever happened.
  14. Hey everyone. I have a little 8-month-old budgie called Beanie. He was fine when we bought him from the pet shop, but a few weeks after we got him home - chaos hit! He is the most destructive budgie i have ever owned. He tips his water out, pulls off his feed bowl, tears up his millet, destroys his toys, eats through the perches, etc. What can i do? He isn't trained yet, either, so that probably doesn't help. I'm having to buy new perches, toys and bowls for him so often, and he just destroys everything! And he can't be bored - he has so many toys! Please help! _peep_

    I'm slightly confused, as i have read a few budgie books mentioning briefly about feeding your budgie egg feed, but then i read another book that said only to feed them egg feed when they are breeding? Which one is right, and what is egg feeds purpose? Thanks! _peep_
  18. I've got a little budgie called Beanie, and he is 8 months old. I've tried every method to try and train him, but nothing seems to be working. I've tried gradually introducing my hand to him, but he still just flutters all around the cage like crazy. I've read every budgie book from the library, and i've attempted every method the books have given me, but nothing has worked. Is there anything else i can do to try and get him used to my hand in the cage? He is 8 months old, and so i'm also wondering if it is too late to train him? Thanks! _peep_

    Hey everyone, i'm new here! Just thought i'd introduce myself and my flock. I've owned 3 budgies in the past, and the one i own at the moment, a little blue and white one, called Beanie. He is 8 months old, and has not yet been hand-trained. Just wondering if its too late? Thanks! :bluebudgie: _peep_
