Hello Everyone,

Its been a long time I havent come here, I missed you all. Reason I joined was a loss of my beloved budgie due to a tumor, and I found wonderful support go through this difficult stage of my life.

Since my last visit here a few positive things happend, I started dating with a nice man and also I'd like to introduce my little new budgie.

I got him/her yesterday night from a breeder, he/she was born dec. 14 2005. The breeder said mostly its gonna be a male. Hes very friendly, he started eating a little bit this morning, he sleeps a lot and hes very quite. I was about to give the same name like my other budgie had, but if you have any good matching name for this little baby, I would consider changing.

 

 

hes so cute love his black beack a shame it doesant stay for ever

Thanks,

I have more picture, as I read they need time to get used to their new home, but still I'm a bit worried he doesnt seem very happy, since hes very young is there any special care?

what a doll how sweet...what type of names do you like?

Something short and what would suit him the best.

well he looks like a Sweet Pea to me (that is what comes to my head) or Petey.

hmm to me its crere already looks brown i wonder if this is normal it could look blue im not sure i think pip,sam,kem

 

cozy

 

or kez

Awwww, he's so sweet, pretty and alert. I like Pete or Sweet Pea as well. :redalbino:

Yesterday he was eating quite a lot, but I never saw a budgie eat that slowly and it took a long time. Is that normal?

I'm happy that he is eating, still not sure with the names , I like Pete and just thought about Kiwi?

Sweet looking baby budgie.

 

Regarding eating depends on what you mean by slowly, my little terror sometimes just takes ages to eat.

It seems like hes eating is in slow motion comparing to my other budgies

i have a baby budgie called kiwi

What a handsome little man. I'm guessing you are French Canadian. What about Cheri? Is that a literal translation for beloved?

I didnt think about that one, I really like that name. With my boyfriend we started calling him Kiwi, but I prefer Cheri , we'll see

I'm gonna try both name with my budgie, and the one he responds better.

Wich one is easier to pronounce for them?

Today I'm gonna go buy him some toys :sport:

Yes, it means beloved, thanks for the name

Finally my boyfriend really likes the name Kiwi, so we have a name

I bought a few toy, also a bird bath but he wont go in it? When should I let him out from a cage?

Thanks everyone for the names

Let him out when he is finger tame - when he will step up on command. Makes it so much easier and less stressful to put them away again. Sometimes they need to be tempted to use the bath, but I would let him get used to it first, before doing anything about it. Lots of ideas are already on this board about that

Thanks I'll try to do that, so in this case hes not ready. Somtimes he steps on my finger, but not on a command and I dont think he knows that hes not on the perch.

Hes very active, always moving, doing excercies, very responsive budgie
