Thankyou Kaz.

Hi there. Here are pics of my 3 mates . Again I'm sure George is George, but am not 100 % certain with Mildred and Maxine. Note Mildred is missing part of the cere. picture is not the best 'cause she is camera shy. Thankyou in advance, Steve. .... Sorry , also the main reason for my confusion is that Mildred and Maxine are always following each other around and preening each other ( as well as the occaisional small argument ). Whenever George tries to get involved they both chase him away, although they are happy to have him sit next to them ... ???

G'day all. I'm Steve. I have 3 Budgies - George ( who is Definately George ) , Mildred ?? and Maxine ?? George & Mildred came to me as a pair, but when I wasn't too sure about Mildred's sex I was offered another female - Maxine. I'm almost certain Mildred and Maxine are girls but even if they're not the names are to stick regardless ! The 4 of us have been together for almost 2 months now, and George who is finger tame is my fave. Maxine likes to sit on a plastic coathanger and go for rides around the room, but she doesn't quite trust my finger yet. Mildred is just stubborn - but does end up following the other two if I have returned them to the cage. Mildred is missing a huge chunk of her cere. Thats how she came to me. I'm wondering if that was from a flying injury, or from some form of abuse from another bird or from a human. ..... Man is the cruellest animal .
