  1. Hey I was just wondering if anyone knew the name of the mutation/colour/etc of Luna my budgie.My budgie has slightly changed colours since she was a baby. thanks in advance :yes:As you can see, the colour in my signature (when she was 6 weeks old) is different.
  2. Thank you very much for that, I do know what you're saying. The last thing I want is for the whole bonding thing to reverse. I'm trying my hardest to not force them to do anything, I'm encouraging them- I don't have any food other than the seed in their cage as of yet, so I cant reward them with that. I often play a video of a budgie and I'm pretty sure they enjoy listening to that. But what you said really helped, because I won't deny that I have been frustrated. The one thing I definitely won't do is grab them, and hold on. I know that some people use that technique and often it just reverses the bonding and taming process. Today when I got home and used the ladder again- They both hopped on immediately. Then I graduated to my finger, and they did the same. I dont move my finger around too much, because they only stay on for about a minute, and then they want to get back on the perch I am going to wait a few months, I have decided, because I want them to be more familiar with me. On another note, is it true that female budgies don't talk? I think my two budgies might be females and I would like them to learn a few words when they're older Thank you!
  3. Yay! Luna now goes on my finger in the cage- now I'm going to slowly work on them 'jumping' onto my finger from a few centimetres away if thats safe?Thats true- I learnt that patience is the only way that they'll co operate with me.. I started off by saying 'up' and nudging them with a ladder that they climbed onto. Then I did the same with my finger
  4. Update: Snowy now goes on my finger in the cage
  5. Charlotte replied to a post in a topic in What Sex Is My Budgie?
    My budgie is also called Snowy
  6. They're still quite afraid of me- I've been putting my hand in the cage and moving toys, etc. But they always run/fly away from my hand/finger if I put it near them. No their wings are not clipped. I think I might wait until they at least climb onto my hand
  7. I was wondering when it would be appropriate to let my two 6-7 week old budgies (I have only had them for 3 days) out of the cage. The room that I will put them in is a medium sized room, there are no small parts in there that they would get stuck in and I will be sure to close the doors and windows. When should I let them out?
  8. My budgies are only 6/7 weeks old at the moment approximately- when should I start feeding them fruit and vegetables? They are only eating seeds at the moment. Thanks in advance
  9. In about a month I'll take another photo of Luna- that way it might be easier to see what colour she is. They are my first budgies, and they are so adorable! I love budgies now

  11. Thanks I'll take some photos tomorrow, because it's 8:36pm and dark so it'd be a bit hard to take close photos.I also have this photo: http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/bun...0523_152631.jpg
  12. Today I bought my first budgies, what type are they? (colour) Their names are Snowy and Luna. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/bun...0523_170717.jpg Thanks
