Hi Guys, Can you guys please help us with training tips? Regards Unni

I disagree that its too soon.....note the darker feather markings also that absolutely show the chick will be opaline Hi now my baby budgies are almost 1 month old , and they are 3 in number . When is the ideal time to start training them to be hand fed or train them to talk or interact with us? How to start off with getting them tamed? http://i1018.photobucket.com/albums/af306/...ie/IMG_4245.jpg

Is it okay to handle the chick at this point of time? will the momma budgie disown them if we handle the chick??

The Papa Budgie: The Mama Budgie:

The mother is grey and black and the father budgie is bright green and yellow

hey guys check this:are these black marks normal?

How do I upload picture?

Hi all, There are black marks in the tips of the wings of the new chicks there are a week old is this okay? Should we worry about it also..can anyone tell how to attach picture here so I can post the picture for your reference..please reply fast real worried.

My Baby budgie died in her egg shell My \mummy budgie has laid 4 eggs of which 2 have hatched and the chicks look healthy and are being fed by both the parents , but the 3rd egg started to turn black after it had started cracking. I am able to sense a slight nasty odor when I near the nest. I am not sure what to do with that defective egg and sure why it has turned black. The mother budgie is very very protective and is not letting anybody to approach the nest. What should I be doing now ? Should I clear the defective egg or let the mother budgie itself clear it ?? Will this defective egg harm my newly born budgies' health?

The mother budgie has laid 2 more eggs now total of 3, will she lay more eggs how do we know when she gonna stop? Also once the eggs are laid what will happen? When will the eggs hatch? Is it okay to take the eggs and see if they are fertilized ones or not? Will momma budgie discard the eggs if touched by humans? Lots of questions!!

Thank you !!

You can candle your eggs to tell if they're fertile within about 4 or 5 days or laying. You need a small but strong torch and you should be able to see veins, maybe even the heart if the egg is fertile. My male[father] budgie tries to bring out the mother budgie from her nest and tries to mate with her . The 2 of them mated yesterday and day before too. Now there are 2 eggs in the nest ,yet the male budgie calls the female out and tries to mate . The female budgie does not seem to resist it but does not mate for long too. Is this okay? Will this harm /weaken my mother budgie?

hi My budgie laid her 1st egg today . Now she is fully inside her nest sitting on top of the laid egg . Are there any special methods to take care of it ? Like food and nutrients .When is it okay to handle the eggs and how long would it take to fertilise the egg ? Is there any way to know if the eggs are fertile or not Thank You!

So is patience the key? Is there anyway I can know if they are going to lay eggs or not?Also, one more doubt can I separate both pairs into different cages with one nest-box each?

I will put then in separate cages but you tell me why they have not laid any eggs till now Regards Unni

Hi all, We are first time breeders (can't call ourselfs breaders also). We have 2 pairs of budgies, we have also put 2 seperate nest box for them. Now here are the problems: 1. One lady budgies of the pair wants both the nest box and will not allow the other lady budgie to use any of the nextbox. 2. There is a major fight between both the lady budgies. 3. We have see both the pair mating but none of them have laied any egg is there any specific reason? Please help I am scared if they will hurt each other. Is seperating them an option like putting each pair in diffrent cage? Regards Unni
