I have four Budgie's, I have paired them up TODAY and they dont like each other, but they dont fight, they just avoid each other, Will they finally pair up? I want to keep them as pairs, as they are good colours together, What do I do?

 

Thanks

Kirsty

Just keep them there for a little while patients is a virtue

Actually patients see doctors. Patience is a virtue -

Kirsty- sometimes it takes days sometimes weeks and for the really really patient people it has known to take months.

Hopefully you will start to see some bonding from the pairs within a week, usually the males initiate it but not always.

Think to notice include sitting on the same side perch instead of facing each other on seperate ones, male approaching the female (even if she rejects him at first, he must keep trying!) the more obvious signs come soon after.

Persevere for a few weeks before making any more decisions or expecting anything

:question: yes you are right dave. I am a very poor spellerer..

:question: Dave and JB

 

i agree with Pie. it will happen, just depends how long you want to wait. I give around 3 weeks, if they are still not digging each other after that time, then will change partners

Thanks guys,

The cock has been talking to her a bit more now, but he is intimidated when she pecks him.

I have two show Quality birds that I have paired up, and it was love at first sight!

Thanks
