  1. That's a touching story I can't believe he had to give up for a few years 0.o
  2. You seem to have so much time on your hands, good job splat!
  3. You've got some beautiful budgies there KAZ I'm loving that cinnamon visual violet, when I'm older I'm gonna have to breed myself some of those They're gorgeous <3 <3 <3 R.I.P to all of those who have died <3
  4. Hi Captzork, I recently built my first proper playgym this month, I used wood glue and non toxic pvc glue to glue it, and I used pvc, lemon branches, non toxic pine base, wheels and screws. Just be as creative as you can and you'll think of something, as I did mine without a plan best of luck for you
  5. Yeah, I know. Step-up's the most basic trick ever so I didn't add it as I would presume you guys would make the assumption that I'd teach it that first And for the air routines, it won't be much, just summersaults not too hard Oh, and i just thought of another thing, ROLL OVER XD
  6. most of those ones all if i can
  7. I see we have something in common
  8. Well... I've got a giant cage and a small one The giant one is one of those hexagonal cages, and the small one is a rectangle except with a curved top (I'm sure you know what I mean). I want to bond with the bird first, so I'm thinking of keeping it in the small cage, and then when it knows I'm not to be feared, I'll transfer to the large one. (The large one's an outside, small one's an inside)
  9. Haha, No problems
  10. Hey guys, next holidays (xmas holidays), I'm gonna be getting a budgie (handreared or not). So what I was wondering, is when it bonds with me, what tricks should I teach it? I was thinking these: Shake Lift Wings Ring toss Basketball Sk8ing Some air routines Vampire (when they hang upside down on a perch) Flip Play dead Dance Wiggle (pretty much the same as dance) Come to me wherever in house Backflip Bow Talking Talking on a command ("Can he talk?" 'I can talk, can you fly?' Any other suggestions would be awesome, also, it would be great if someone could tell me how to teach the budgie to do these tricks thx
  11. Noooooooooooooo!
  12. I know it's been 3 years since someone posted on here, but wouldn't it be wise to only have two perches on it? Because with more, you're endangering your budgies to being pooped on :/
  13. I just think this one's a darling <3
  14. Not eating enough? Weak? Maybe the food's expired? Those are things that I think of. But I could be wrong.
  15. Yes, they must get embarrased when you're looking (Sorry if offended, but it is quite natural for someone to get embarrased when sharing a.... special moment.... with someone) Budgies and other birds dont care if you are watching or not if they feel like mating. They dont get embarassed. its just that they usually mate early morning before most people are out of bed.......but they mate at any time of day too....when the mood takes them,.....they dont get embarassed and they dont care if you are watching at all. My husband was in his aviary yesterday and two of the tamer princess parrots were mating while on his shoulder. Pleasant
  16. okay, so I'll have it standing so the budgies don't completely demolish the seeds... I'm thinking some sort of really really strong and hard wood, but I'm gunna put stainless steel around it, the wood is just for the frame, I know I could just build the frame with stainless steel, but I like wood
  17. Hmmmmm.... I'd better draw something out so you guys know what I mean.... I'll post back in 5 Just in case you were wondering for size, I'm planning 1m height and width and 2m length okay, so I suppose it could go by the name of a small aviary
  18. Hey guys, I'm planning on making a large budgie cage (the size of the ones with the perches on top if you know what I mean by that),and what I'm thinking of doing, is with the removable tray, having some sort of seed growing in it, so the birdies have something fresh to eat opinions would be great
  19. Sigh... I've gotta find a spot in our backyard to build an aviary dedicated to you Splat
  20. Yes, they must get embarrased when you're looking (Sorry if offended, but it is quite natural for someone to get embarrased when sharing a.... special moment.... with someone)
  21. That is the: Coolest Most Awesome Best Bred Cutest Budgie I've ever seen :)
  22. Hmmm..... from memory, Apple (dried and fresh) Pineapple apricot banana pear blackberry strawberry rasberry cherry kiwi fruit any melons that we can eat oranges peaches grapes There may be more but that's all that I can think of atm :/
  23. I know, it was just a suggestion that came off the top of my head I don't think
