Posted January 18, 200718 yr hello! I just joined this great site, my is Beth, i am 27 and live just north of Sydney in Australia. I have one budgie named Billy. just got him, he is only about 6 weeks old and i just adore him! I think he is a yellow face (?) He is learning more each day. I also have a beautiful dog Gemmer who is facinated by Billy and follows him everywhere! Would love to put in a photo, any tips on how i do that? I'm new to computers! thankyou!
January 18, 200718 yr Welcome aboard and we are glad to have you here. If you scroll down to Budgie Pictures there are instructions on how to upload your pictures to photobucket, how to resize them and then how to post them on the site. If you need help you can ask questions in the forum called tech support.
January 18, 200718 yr Welcome Beth. Your Billy sounds wounderful. Are you trying to get him to talk? What sort of dog is Gemmer? Look around and make yourself at home.
January 18, 200718 yr Author Hi, thanks for the warm welcome Nerwen so far i am repeating his name all the time, aiming for 5 minutes of constant "billy billy billy" every day. But so far he hasn't picked it up. im not sure but i thought i heard him try to whistle the exact same way we whistle for our dog gemmer which we are often doing, could he have learn't that yet? Do any of your budgies talk? My dog is a real mixture but we think she is a lhasa apso cross Australian silky terrier. Got her when was already 4 months old so not 100% sure! have you got any dogs? will try posting pictures today
January 19, 200718 yr Pretty started to talk about 6 months after we got him. You can tell when they try they get quiet and start making these odd noises like they are trying to talk. Be patience some may never talk but don't give up . I saw your pup in the other post and asked for more pics (Laughing out loud) she is a cutie and I even asked the breed.
January 19, 200718 yr Hello Beth, welcome to the forum! And you did just fine with your picture :fear
January 19, 200718 yr Author Thanks! It took me a while but i got the picture up first go woo-hoo! am computer-challenged but slowly getting better
January 19, 200718 yr Hi Beth, I welcomed you in the pics posts I have a Lhasa Apso crossed with a Jack Russel, and strangely he looks like a Silky Terrier :fear Feathers.
