    Thanks. I have a ladder, a ring toy and 4 perches in the cage. I did have a mirror, but Kaz said that they mess with their heads, so I took it out. She has 2 water holders and 2 food holders(ones empty). I did have one of those honey sticks in her cage(trill one), but it was gone by the end of the day so I stopped giving them to her.

    Pebbles beak has turned from full brown to full blue so i am pretty convinced its a guy but i am still gonna call it a she so lately she became very smart.. or maybe she always has been anyways she opens up the doors for the water bobs her head out the puts her head back in and the door goes down is there anything i can put on the doors to prevent her from doing that shes in my room so she wont get very far but my brother nearly strangled it last time she got out. I have been using pegs but not sure there strong enough one of my previous budgies were out side with the big black cage and he lifted up the door and flew away. Every night and morning i let her out for about 20 minutes in my room to get her flight time apart from Tuesday nights when i have netball. do i have to give her more flight time or is she just teasing me opening and closing the doors??

  7. Yeah breeders birds are a lot better although they have really nice ones at the pet shops breeders birds are cheaper

    This actually helped me i had mirrors in charlies cage no wonder i could never train him !
  10. I hate snakes last year i was hanging up washing for mum out the back when i finished i went inside then i looked out the back and there was a brown snake it eventually went under the fence and left. I hope it eats all you rats and not your birds
  11. thats great i know i have not followed this topic but i read his problem at the start and its great thats hes getting better. some one said its a she so is it she or he?
  12. thats funny i would never have thought that a budgie could mimic a dogs bark my budgie calls me something else which is not very nice probably hears my dad saying it also says god morning and good night but in the morning it says good night and at night it says good morning pebbles is sooo silly.
  13. um yeah sorry cant get decent photos of her cause she likes to run around and just hates the camera
  14. great budgie you have there i cant help with the mutations sorry. your budgie is so good does it squirm at all when you take photos or even fly away?
  15. amanda replied to amanda's topic in Off Topic Chatter
    thank goodness there is an off topic chatter section i could not live with out it (okay so thats not true but you no what i mean) went shopping today and bought an awesome dress from jay jays and an anklet. do you like shopping?
  16. thats what pebbles cere looks like here are some photos they are useless cause she just runs away and the camera is really bad rggggggggggggggh the pictures are not showing up nor the links :( :(
  17. i have photos on photo bucket but i will get a new picture after i have tea tonight
  18. Pebbles cere has being changing over the last two days originally it was all brown with a bit of pink but now the top part of the cere has a thin blue line around the cere. is pebbles a male or a female or unknown type? here is an old photo of her about 4 weeks ago i will get a picture tomorrow or Saturday and put it on here. the picture is not showing up for some reason
  19. hello i got my bird pebbles about a month and 2 weeks ago thats not exact but around that. pebbles has two brothers as well, my friends little sister has one of the brothers hes named "tic tac" they originally lived together but the males went to a new home sooner than pebbles.when the males left pebbles started to get picked on thats when i wanted a new budgie so i recieved the budgie for free from the same breeder. i did not get to choose they just gave it too me going to post more later
  20. Nice budgie looks like a boy love your purple cage one of my favourite colours.
  21. Budgies like spinach but i am not sure on grapes you can also give it millet sprays my budgies dont like millet spray so dont buy lots in case he/she does not like it
  22. My bird pebbles likes sitting on my curtain rod as well i chase her sometimes but not too often cause i am worried i will loose her trust. use some thing safe to wire up your doors i know what it is just cant remember what its called...complete mental blank. pebbles loves getting out she has only got out once so i just have pegs on the doors (pegs dont actually help depending on where i place them sometimes the bird just thinks that she cant get out any more)
  23. i cant help with the mutation and colour stuff but he is soooo cute i would love to have him as a pet
