  1. Hi all, this is my first time posting here so if this is in the wrong spot, I apologize, but I thought i'd share this! This afternoon, I was outside hanging out some washing and my dogs started barking like mad from behind their fence. I turned around expecting to see a stray dog or cat, but couldn't see a thing. I looked at the ground and there was a little blue budgie waddling around, nibbling at the grass. He wouldn't allow me to pick him up then, he kept flying away, and I didn't want the dogs to get to him so I grabbed a towel and captured him that way. I cleaned and set up one of my spare cages (I breed and raise cockatiels) and put him in there, gave him some food and water, covered him with a towel and let him be. Not too long ago, I moved him to a bit bigger cage, and he stepped up onto my finger without a care in the world. Before I put him in the bigger cage, I chatted to him for a minute and had him step up on my fingers. He had no interest in flying away or biting, so he's pretty well tame. Tomorrow after work i'm going to go door knocking along my street and put some flyers up, as this little guy appears to be someone's pet. This is my first time being in the company of a budgie, so it's all new to me. He's so much lighter in weight than my cockatiels! So i'm curious.. If by chance nobody claims him, i'll keep him, so i'm curious as to whether or not budgies get along with cockatiels? It's okay if it's not a good idea, I have plenty of spare cages so setting one up properly for him wouldn't be a problem. Also, what do they typically eat? I'll try him with some veggies tomorrow night when I cook dinner, but for now he's just got some seed. If there's anything else you think I should know, feel free to tell me!
