Budgies Bonding With Children

Featured Replies

Posted

Just goes to show that even a 4 year old can tame a bird... my daughter, Kira is the offical "millet holder" for all the young budgies and not only are they tame... they love her for it. My birds are bonded with myself as well as my daughter.

 

She is surprisingly gentle and good with the birds, and loves them as much as they enjoy being with her. So I thought I'd share some photos I took just the other day. Blueberry decided that after a nice meal of millet from my daughter that he needed a kiss... then he proceded to climb to play on her head.... then Frost flew over to get in on the fun....

They are great pictures :wub:

Your daughter is adorable. my son is the same with the birds, he will be 4 in September. I love watching Kids with animals - there is something very special about it :D

Great photos! All my kids love the birds, even the 21mth old (under a very watchful eye). My 3 yr old and 9 yr old pick up the birds whenever they feel like. They want to get the budgie out of the cage too, but she's not tame enough for that, and they are forever at me to get her out.

 

I think it's a great experience for the kids to get up close and personal with the feathered friends in the house. Your daughter certainly looks as though she loves the attention of the budgies. :wub:

Awww what a sweet photo. Your daughter is very cute and it sure looks like the budgies love her :)

way too cute, wonderful pics and your daughter is beautiful

Soo cute! your daughters adorable!

I won't steal your birds like nicknack, but i would glady take her home :)

:wub: Your daughter is just SO sweet with the budgies! :)

There is nothing more adorable than a small child that loves their pets :)

 

I have a three year old and an 18month old and everyone that visits is amazed at how well they care for their pets and how gentle they are. I was holding our newest baby budgies in my hands this afternoon while my youngest patted them gently, he has never grabbed the fur/feather of any of our animals.

 

It just shows that anyone who says 'kids will be kids' when their offspring are tormenting someones pets doesn't understand what their kids are missing out on.

Kira and my daughter Allysa also 4 would get along really well. Ally just loves the birds we have. If you weren't in the USA they could have a play date with their babys.. Were in AUSTRALIA.

have you thought about submitting one of your pictures for June Budgie of the Month?
