Aggressive Young Budgie

Featured Replies

Posted

Hello everyone,

 

I am new here and after a bit of behavior advice. A couple of weeks ago I brought a pastel yellow/blue budgie and he (I believe it's a he) has been very quiet and sweet until the last little while when I noticed he started to become a little bossy with the other two budgies he was in quarantine with. I just put it down to being in a small contained cage for too long. But a couple of days ago I released him into my aviary, I have two yellow males in there and he is aggressive towards them..especially one. He chases it around the cage a lot, tries to stand on him and just gives him a hard time, the other yellow he will try to bite. He gets a bit pushy with the others but not as much as the two yellows...I don't understand this behavior. I have taken him out of the aviary for the time being as I don't want him relentlessly annoying the others. I don't want to sell him but if he isn't suited with my birds I might have too. Is this behavior something he will grow out of when he is older?

Thank you for any help :) :)
