January 9, 201213 yr Author thanks for the warm welcome, this forum has been great for information. i really could not help my self and bought another one, my first budgie needed a friend to hang out with when i wasnt home. so i bought this little guy http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w163/autokandii/newadditiontothefamily.jpg Edited January 12, 201213 yr by birdluv picture turned to link. picture is over the limit of 640x480.
January 10, 201213 yr nawwwwwwww......they're so cute By the way, you should replace those plastic perches with either dowel or natural perches
January 12, 201213 yr Hi welcome to the forum Your budgies are nice. Your blue one is a male. In the future if you get another budgie. It is highly recommended that any new addition should be quarantined for at least 30 days. To prevent any illness from spreading to your current budgie(s). I'm sorry about changing your pictures to links but they where both over the size limit of this board. You need to resize all future pictures within the limit of 640x480.

January 15, 201213 yr In the second photo, the green bird looks like a male. Sometimes a photo will overexpose the cere, making it look partly white, especially if flash is used or there is a really bright window nearby. Is that first photo really what your bird looks like in real life? With white on the top half of the cere? Or is it really an all over pinkish color, with just a little bit of a pale area? Also, is it a recessive pied? And hey, welcome to the forum!
March 26, 201213 yr Author Its been a while since iv been on this site but these are the updates on my budgies. This is Zack who is getting bigger his pretty much the stay inside bird. He learnt to whistle and give kiss's hehe And this is the gang, who live at my grandparents house I started a little aviary
March 26, 201213 yr Hello Daniel-11, Have you clipped your birds wings or plucked feathers? None of them have flight feathers, that i could see in your photos, which is unusual even if in a moult and could be an indication of a problem requiring treatment.
