I have 3 budgies about 5 months old in an aviery about 3m x 1.5m. They are quite flighty when I approach them inside the aviery . What is the best way to make them a bit more tame and maybe get on my finger in time? I have taken the breeding box out for a while.

Try offering seeding grasses or treats close to the door by pegging it to the wire.

You will find that they will start to anticipate it and wait close by while you put it in.

Eventually they will take it from your hand and will trust you more and more as you go.

It usually don't take to long to earn their trust.
