@@flicksfn965 They came up with a thousand excuses. I only asked because i was trying to be polite cause i still live in their house. BUT my dad ended up saying i wasnt responsible enough (yet Ive been working at the same job for 3 yrs, i pay for my classes at school, i pay for my own gas, car insurance, etc) then he tried telling me i dont have time and that pisses me off cause we arent that close so he doesnt even know my schedule. I told him that and he said he knew what i was trying to do. but literally that doesnt mean i have absolutely no time to take care of a hamster and they are so easy to take care of. He also just hates rodents of any sort. Ive beent thinking about just getting one anyways but itll probably create some fights. it's just a control thing with them and they wont admit it.
Alisa B I just bought mine waited till they return time was over and then I told them after they yelled at me for a little they were finally okay with it
This is so sweet. My uncle and aunts (I have about 5 on my father's side, yet none on my mother's side) mostly ignore me because they're not close with my father, and really, neither am I. It warms my heart to see a video like this that proves the existence of close family relationships with relatives other than your grandparents or siblings. Thank you!
Juniper, I came across your note to this sweet video of this lucky girl to be so loved by her uncle, and what’s even sweeter, is the excitement seen in his face to where he is just as excited as her to give her and buy her all the necessary things to make a nice home for her birds. He is a total doll! Did you every get any birds? i have birds and if you ever decide or your family let’s you, i would be glade to help guide you on how to prepare to build a plan of what all you need and picking out the birds, feed, water and food dishes, and how to keep the cage clean so they don’t get any bacteria infections from their own birds droppings. i am a lady who is retired from the Los Angeles Police Department so I am safe to communicate with and i would like to share my pictures of my one cockatoo parrot, 1 English Budgie and an English Budgie is the same bird as the regular parakeet, but they have a bigger head with so many more feathers that you barely see the little cute eyes. They are a little bigger than the overal parakeet, but they are so cute, and i also have a cockatiel that is yellow and 1 finch, which are the tiny birds who squeak more than chirp. They are darling and love to take bathes and if you put a little flat square container, like the plastic lids you get take home food from a restaurant in. Just so it is only an inch or a little more and fill it with water they absolutely go crazy and jump in and flap their little feathers with drops of water flying from their tiny wings. When you have about at least 5-8 finches in a cage together and you have a ladder next to the water dish they will take turns climbing the ladder and one by one, they will jump off and bathe and then the next bird jumps into the water and takes his bathe and then after each gets their bath on their own, they all jump in together and have a grand old time. Then they get out and it’s fun to watch them shack and pick their feathers til they dry. What good about finches are is the average one who doesn’t have the bright colors on them, who a mixture of light brown and white and black speckles on their side feathers are inexpensive. You can find them from $8-15 dollars each. Then later if you want the colored ones which are beautiful, which they are called “Lady Gouldions” who come in all different beautiful colors starting at about $25.00 and up. I would love to help you out if you are still interested and your parents allow it. i don’t know your age, but i think taking care of a pet and you do have to devote time to them to give them the care they deserve, just like we deserve to be cared for by our parents and all our family and friends throughout our lives. So taking on the responsibility of a pet they become a part of you family and some people buy them just because they are cute, but don’t take care of or lose interest in them and they are ignored and that is not fair. i have had cats, dogs, and birds all my life and i treated them well and made sure they had healthy food and never go without water and kept them all til the old age when they passed away. But it taught me at a very young age to respect animals and love them and I just can’t tell you how much joy and happiness they brought me. They are always happy to see you, you can cuddle them and pet them, and they will respond to you any time you want to hold them or play. i could help you and give you advice as to where to find cages, toys, and all you need on line and save alit of money, because pet store charge you top retail and on the internet you can get the same item for half the price. And as far as the birds I can direct you to people i know who breed them and their birds are healthier than pet stores and they get them from people who are not certified in bird breeding and online you can pick and chose because they usually have a variety of each breed. They give you a health certificate that if the bird gets sick you can return and either get another and get your money back, and you don’t want the heartbreak of losing a bird you just got attached to. The people I get my birds from for years and i have nevrr had one get sick and die, i totally trust them and been going to both of them for over 15 years. I live in Los Angeles County and if your interested, I can teach you a lot, i’ve taught a lot of families who had children getting the first pets from cats to birds and the responsibility that goes along with it. i went from budgies to parrots and it took time before i ever owned a parrot because they are considered exotic, like zoo animals, so they have a whole different dispositions than the smaller domestic birds and are a lot more to take on than the smaller domestic birds. You never want to take on a parrot as a first bird because they can be aggressive and bite you and you really need to know the disposition and personality differences between domestic and exotic birds. Here is my email: sheilaethelyn@aol.com and if your young ask your parents about me before you communicate because i don’t want to upset them and get you in trouble. But i am a retired lady who lives to help people enjoy the world of owning and having a loving pet in your home. They can even make you smile when you’re having a not so good day. And it’s days like this, that you will be glad you have them. I hope to hear from you and I’ll send you videos of my parrot and my other birds and i have a cute little girl yorkie dog who is darling and my best companion. My husband has cancer and she knows it and always fallows him around and sits and cuddles with him when he has days when he is not feeling well and my son is 29 and she gets all excited when he comes home and she hangs out with him too! So I’d love to send you pictures and a couple videos. That would be fun and i can help you out if you decide to get a pet!!! Sheila
They were only on the floor for the first night then they went to Ikea and got a table, Thank You for letting us know, we had a lot of research tpo do and my niece is really great at taking care of them and obsessed with reading all about her birds and other birds.
@@Shellymacful They need to be at roughly the owners eye height, or else they'll be extra scared of the owner. I mean, if I had a giant who was 100x the size of me towering over me, I'd be pretty terrified.
Here is. Little trick to get them to say yes. Make a deal. Tell them you’ll do anything they want you to (and keep doing it after u get a bird) my parents are hard to convince but it worked!
Elle And The Birds is a good channel. Do research. Do extra work. Do stuff without being asked. Take notes. Birds need a ton of care, yearly checkups, and sometimes emergency checkups.
Make sure if you still have those straight wood perches, get rid of them and get natural wood perches, you can buy them or go to your garden and pick out some natural sticks or small branches, and also don’t listen to the pet store workers they barely know anything about birds so make sure to do research about them and also take very good care of them, I hope she loves her new birds and I hope she has an amazing time with them😁
Hi! The birds are absolutely adorable but, you should get them a variety of different perches and a bigger cage. Budgies (that species of parakeet) love to be positioned in room corners because it gives them a scene of security. I would also strictly get natural wood toys and remove the mirror as they can have a negative psychological impact on small birds. That's it :) have a good one!
Hey so I just wanted to say that you should probably remove those dowel perches (the straight ones you have in there) because they can cause the birds to get arthritis
ya and that cage is misguided it doesn't fit a conure they need a flight cage and that cage will not big enough for two birds that could probably only fit one bird but still id get a bigger cage especially a flight cage for one bird
LoL I found my cage SUPER DEAL 63.5'' Rolling Bird Cage Large Wrought Iron Cage for Cockatiel Sun Conure Parakeet Finch Budgie Lovebird Canary Medium Pet House with Rolling Stand & Storage Shelf www.amazon.com/dp/B07W724FS8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fab_ie-GFb3D19NE5
You should definitely get a bigger cage, preferably one that is already on a stand(they sell lots on eBay and Amazon that are great), I know that cages really have a big impact on your bird’s personality. My bird was in a cage the size of yours and didn’t sing, dance, or like me at all, then I put him in a big cage from eBay. Now he is the happiest bird ever, he sings, dances, flys, and plays with all his toys. I also recommend more natural toys for your bird to engage with, especially some foraging toys. Get natural perches as well to exercise your bird’s feet, dowel perches such as yours will cause arthritis and bumble foot. Another thing I recommend is to get stainless steel bowls since they don’t build bacteria as easily as plastic. All these things will make a great, happy, engaging bird !
Pretty sure a medium sized cage is fine as long as the bird only eats and sleeps there and the rest of the day is around the house, i totally agree on the others points tho
i've had my parakeets for 5 years i love them with all my heart and they jus roam around the house doing nothing besides being cute i've trained them fully and i really don't know what i would do without them Edit : just watched the video chat u i saw so many rare mutations in those cages black is rare that thing was like almost fully blackish grey witch is rare one of the ones she bought was also rare it was 2 mixed colours on 1 bird truely the best pet store for people looking for rare mutations
I seriously love that you got them a big cage!!! So Responsible 😁 I’ve seen way too many videos of people buying budgies and parakeets for family members and getting super tiny cages 😔
@@yeayeah8321 that's still really big, how much did it cost? It must've been a lot for that size tbh. That's five times the size of a blackbear's shoulder height! Man I wish I had the money to get my birds a cage that big.
I know this is late, but my job is to educate people. The bird cage isn't very big. They also need natural perches, otherwise the bird can get quite sick, and can't walk properly ( arthritis or bumble foot) they need many toys. Mirrors can make the bird hormonal, so It could make them aggressive. Let them them settle in for at least a week, because it's very stressful for them. I would recommend a flight cage, nature natural perches. The diet of the bird should be a mix of fruit, veggies and greens. Seeds only used as a treat.
They also need stainless steel bowls as plastic can grow bacteria, also make sure to feed them “chop” it’s a mix of veggies and fruits blended together. 💙
I had to take my birds cuttlefish away because he was mating with it😑 Don’t worry! They don’t actually need it in their diet because they should be getting the calcium in their food anyway, it’s just extra and they love nibbling it, just thought it was kinda funny😂
Hey I would put the cage highers, birds are known for being in high places so they can see from above where their predators are, it'll cause less anxiety. I hope you love the birds!😋
She absolutely did that, the next she got a stand and put the birds higher up and in a nice corner, We appreciate your comment and concern, she certainly was a new bird owner and needed the advice from everyone, even though she did a lot of research before she got them.
Um the bird cage can't be on the floor and u aren't suppose to put them by a window because when u start letting them out the cage they might try to fly out the closed window and that can lead 2 injury's and can mess up their brain
Thank You, And she is 12 so didn't know everything about them the first day, so the second day she got a stand to put them on and it isnt near the window either, she read all about them and is obsessed with asking other long term bird owners on TH-cam for much needed advice. Thank you for your concern we certainly appreciate it.
Jay Gray so your telling me she didn’t know anything and still got them how irresponsible of you to do that it’s not something you do with no research, you do about you do months of research
@@locoproductions343 hey there is difference between not knowing anything and not knowing everything. She was just 12 and that was a year ago she learnt more after she did more research
@@locoproductions343 I got two budgies and yes I have done the research before but I am learning more everyday from my experience and by surfing on the internet and as per as your reply you are referring that she didn't know anything but the video or the reply from him doesn't mean that
Aww I’m turning 12 on October 23, which is in 3 days coz today is the 20th. My dad is gonna get me an Apple Watch and I’m so grateful! I’ve wanted a bird since I was ,like, 6 or 7, but I’ve never told my parents. I want a bird more than a watch.. but I’m still happy for the watch, don’t get me wrong! I’m not a brat.. -w-“.. Hopefully one day I can tell them.. I’ve done my research for years so yea.. Anyways happy belated birthday to her! Your the best uncle! =D
Dang time has flown by. I cannot believe I used to write like this, smh. Anyways, Update: I got the watch, still no bird. HOWEVER, I FINALLY asked my parents after all these years, and they sort of agreed.
I have two buggies and it is good to put some sand paper in the cage to is super good for there claws and it is ok if they eat it, it is good for their bellies also I love you videos.
Hello There I reccomend getting a flight cage for your budgies because that cage is very small for 2 budgies xx If you cant find one in store there are some online
I got two budgies because I won my schools academic award. That's the only reason. Plus I could've gotten anything, but because I knew ALOT about birds I got birds.
Man:( I wish i had a person like you. I wanted a cockatiel or lovebird, but my parents said no the first time. I wanna ask them again but man. Plus two i’m also getting a rlly spacious room. So it’s good for the bird. I’d just like to have someone to bond with or make as a small friend. Maybe in a couple more years or so when i get a small job, i can be able to buy one and take care of it myself.
She wasent even that excited... I'm begging my mom for a budgie and because I've done eight pages of research she said maybe, and I flipped I when in my room and cried I was so happy... you are a great uncle and I'm sure she's grateful but she should of expressed it more
same it was hard to p;ut the birds in the cage but eventually we did and now after 3 months my budgies are tamed and they perch on any part of my hand and arm.
I have to birds so i recommend that The cage is standing a little high in The room and not on The floor because they like to see what you Are doing and they like to see The room❤i saw now that she was gonna set them with the window
Hi! Just some tips, parakeets need pellets, seeds, and vegetables everyday! They also need to have their cage be in a bit higher place, because they like to see the whole room!
They need much bigger cages and a bird stand for the cage to sit on, they also did natural wood perches to help their feet! And they enrichment toys and shred toys🫶🏾
hello and nice video but I do recommend getting your birds natural wood perches, a proper diet of fresh vegetables, I would also recommend getting a big flight cage for your two lovely Budgerigars/Parakeets, please watch one of my bird Related videos to see my cockatiels’ cage in which would also be a proper flight cage for parakeets. Psittacidaes (Parrots) need to shred things in order to entertain, forage, and sustain a healthy beak so I recommend getting your birds foraging and shredding toys :) For much more detailed information about parrots please watch TH-camrs like ElleAndTheBirds and Marlene Mcohen for info about birds. Thank you so much for reading, good luck with your birds and stay safe! :D
I have parakeet to! They are really nice and sweet and christmas is coming and getting cockatiel!😍 for my present i am so happy can't wait i know lot of birds but do i need watch out with some things or foods? That some people don't know about it?
@iHeartHammies - Roblox what the hell is wrong with you if you can't take care of a hamster don't get one you say "they kept dying" as if it's normal absolutely disgusting!!
I wish I had birds I did once but it was when I was a child and when I never researched about them and I had 6 in a tiny cage but I wish I had them again I know so much about them now I have wanted one like for 3 years but I just gave up 🙁🙁
Um you need a bigger cage No dowel perches Get a stand for the cage because they feel safe higher Paper and foraging toys Pellet diet and veggies Steel bowls 😁btw birds so cute
Ryan Bittner And the Siberian service dog there not only in Africa shut the fuck up bitch don’t tell me how o tra my bird have a budge and he’s fine outside and if he wasn’t he wouldn’t be safe and tamed with me
Next time get one female and one male that way you have babys and also give them veggies furits for health diet and let them fly around a brid room or in the house I would recommend brid room and last but not least trian them and feed them from you hand to gain trust
wish my uncle was like you, being all kind and that

Get natural perches please dowel causes them to have complications
II Goofy Lucy II: tHaT wAs mY liNE!
Yes orthrides idk how to spell it
And bumble foot
You can have a dowel or two as long as there are more natural wood, and bungee perches
yeah i was about to comment tht those birds could get bumble bee infection
Eventually, get them different perches with all different textures cause it’s good for their feet!
Yeah

@@yeayeah8321 that's still really big, how much did it cost? It must've been a lot for that size tbh. That's five times the size of a blackbear's shoulder height! Man I wish I had the money to get my birds a cage that big.
I know this is late, but my job is to educate people. The bird cage isn't very big. They also need natural perches, otherwise the bird can get quite sick, and can't walk properly ( arthritis or bumble foot) they need many toys.
Mirrors can make the bird hormonal, so It could make them aggressive. Let them them settle in for at least a week, because it's very stressful for them. I would recommend a flight cage, nature natural perches.
The diet of the bird should be a mix of fruit, veggies and greens. Seeds only used as a treat.
They also need stainless steel bowls as plastic can grow bacteria, also make sure to feed them “chop” it’s a mix of veggies and fruits blended together. 💙
I had to take my birds cuttlefish away because he was mating with it😑
Don’t worry! They don’t actually need it in their diet because they should be getting the calcium in their food anyway, it’s just extra and they love nibbling it, just thought it was kinda funny😂
Aliien’s Avian Channel lol they also use it to shorten their beak
Hey I would put the cage highers, birds are known for being in high places so they can see from above where their predators are, it'll cause less anxiety. I hope you love the birds!😋
She absolutely did that, the next she got a stand and put the birds higher up and in a nice corner, We appreciate your comment and concern, she certainly was a new bird owner and needed the advice from everyone, even though she did a lot of research before she got them.
i’m getting birds soon and knowing this is a super great help i will certainly put them high up now thanks
Um the bird cage can't be on the floor and u aren't suppose to put them by a window because when u start letting them out the cage they might try to fly out the closed window and that can lead 2 injury's and can mess up their brain
Thank You, And she is 12 so didn't know everything about them the first day, so the second day she got a stand to put them on and it isnt near the window either, she read all about them and is obsessed with asking other long term bird owners on TH-cam for much needed advice. Thank you for your concern we certainly appreciate it.
Jay Gray so your telling me she didn’t know anything and still got them how irresponsible of you to do that it’s not something you do with no research, you do about you do months of research
@@locoproductions343 hey there is difference between not knowing anything and not knowing everything. She was just 12 and that was a year ago she learnt more after she did more research
3 Stars that’s not how it works you do the research before you get the pet
@@locoproductions343 I got two budgies and yes I have done the research before but I am learning more everyday from my experience and by surfing on the internet and as per as your reply you are referring that she didn't know anything but the video or the reply from him doesn't mean that
Me when I was twelve: Mom, can I get a bird?
My mom: No
Me: I..... ok
Its a good gift, will teach her discipline, and she is lucky to have loving uncle
Make sure to feed them safe vegetable to keep them healthy
Aww I’m turning 12 on October 23, which is in 3 days coz today is the 20th. My dad is gonna get me an Apple Watch and I’m so grateful! I’ve wanted a bird since I was ,like, 6 or 7, but I’ve never told my parents. I want a bird more than a watch.. but I’m still happy for the watch, don’t get me wrong! I’m not a brat.. -w-“.. Hopefully one day I can tell them.. I’ve done my research for years so yea.. Anyways happy belated birthday to her! Your the best uncle! =D
aw have you gotten a bird yet?
Dang time has flown by. I cannot believe I used to write like this, smh. Anyways,
Update: I got the watch, still no bird. HOWEVER, I FINALLY asked my parents after all these years, and they sort of agreed.
Niece was so happy like sky is beyond her feet😊😊😊
Wholesome content!
That’s was priceless So sweet 🥰❤️💯💕🎂🥳🎊🎉
"You wanna get hippie birds" hahahaha that cracked me up.
This is so amazing that they got her birds my parents won’t let me get any animal except fish😖☹️
Aww what a sweet uncle!
I have two buggies and it is good to put some sand paper in the cage to is super good for there claws and it is ok if they eat it, it is good for their bellies also I love you videos.
Hello There
I reccomend getting a flight cage for your budgies because that cage is very small for 2 budgies xx
If you cant find one in store there are some online
I got two budgies because I won my schools academic award. That's the only reason. Plus I could've gotten anything, but because I knew ALOT about birds I got birds.
Just be careful because they bond more with each other than you. That’s what happened to me with my 4
Well that's not always true I have two parakeets and they are super bonded me
thats not a bad thing if they bond
those are probably mates
I might get a parakeet
this is the sweetest uncle ever
Man:( I wish i had a person like you. I wanted a cockatiel or lovebird, but my parents said no the first time. I wanna ask them again but man. Plus two i’m also getting a rlly spacious room. So it’s good for the bird. I’d just like to have someone to bond with or make as a small friend. Maybe in a couple more years or so when i get a small job, i can be able to buy one and take care of it myself.
That's nice my uncle is getting me a budgie for my 12th birthday which is in December 1
What a nice uncle
So nice of you to say, Thank You.
She wasent even that excited... I'm begging my mom for a budgie and because I've done eight pages of research she said maybe, and I flipped I when in my room and cried I was so happy... you are a great uncle and I'm sure she's grateful but she should of expressed it more
So cool!!!!
I like how she got a condor cage and got budgies instead lol
same it was hard to p;ut the birds in the cage but eventually we did and now after 3 months my budgies are tamed and they perch on any part of my hand and arm.
“You want like hippie birds” best part of the video
im glad that they actually did research and got a decent sized cage. YASSS
Get natural purchase because those are good for the birds
I got one for my 14th birthday
OMG U R A very nice uncle im getting a bird in a few weeks so im getting tips thx god bless u and happy birthday
Great video
So sweet
Im getting my bird in 3 days and I’m 15 so I feel the same excitement as here
Yeah I just got a parrotlet yesterday and I’m soo happy. I might take it a while for it to get used to you because mine isn’t even used to me.
How was it?
Lucky because my sister is allergic and my dad says Oka on your birthday but no I always get cursed and I’m really sad. :(
Cool birthday 😊
I have to birds so i recommend that The cage is standing a little high in The room and not on The floor because they like to see what you Are doing and they like to see The room❤i saw now that she was gonna set them with the window
am also getting Parakeet's for my 12 birthday
You are so sweet. God bless
Her birthday is the same birthday as me
Hi! Just some tips, parakeets need pellets, seeds, and vegetables everyday! They also need to have their cage be in a bit higher place, because they like to see the whole room!
OMG those toys are really good your really doing good taking care a bird
OMG ur sooo lucky I really want a bird :)
They need much bigger cages and a bird stand for the cage to sit on, they also did natural wood perches to help their feet! And they enrichment toys and shred toys🫶🏾
If you go to a store just for birds you might/need natural wood perches because it's good for your bird
Are you sure she is 12? She looks like she is 14 and I still look like a 10 yr old lol
What cool uncle you are mate, buying that for her.. 👍
I’m getting 2 parakeets for Christmas
me too but im getting them next month
Same
hello and nice video but I do recommend getting your birds natural wood perches, a proper diet of fresh vegetables, I would also recommend getting a big flight cage for your two lovely Budgerigars/Parakeets, please watch one of my bird Related videos to see my cockatiels’ cage in which would also be a proper flight cage for parakeets. Psittacidaes (Parrots) need to shred things in order to entertain, forage, and sustain a healthy beak so I recommend getting your birds foraging and shredding toys :)
For much more detailed information about parrots please watch TH-camrs like ElleAndTheBirds and Marlene Mcohen for info about birds. Thank you so much for reading, good luck with your birds and stay safe! :D
@Kaid Bunny Disc Golf no problem!
😊👍
Me singing happy birthday in my head
Her uncle is the best can he be my uncle?
Birds fear low areas like the floor due to preditors... neither do they like sitting near the bottom of the cage
Enjoy
6:30 that's so cool
I have parakeet to! They are really nice and sweet and christmas is coming and getting cockatiel!😍 for my present i am so happy can't wait i know lot of birds but do i need watch out with some things or foods? That some people don't know about it?
I just lost my hamster too!! And i'm gatting a bitd for my b-day too!! This is crazy
@iHeartHammies - Roblox what the hell is wrong with you if you can't take care of a hamster don't get one you say "they kept dying" as if it's normal absolutely disgusting!!
@iHeartHammies - Roblox you said your hamsters kept dying what's the point of getting a hamster if you cant take care of it it's a living animal!!!
Finally someone who gets the cage first before the bird
That the same cage i have omg
I’m getting a budgie soon for an early Easter present!!!!!!!!! It’s going to be my first ever budgie and I’m SOOO impatient lollll
BUDGIES ARE NOT EASTER PRESENTS
And living parrots arent gifts
She doesn't look twelve do maybe 2020 now she's 13 looks 18 or 20
U should go on amazon and get a flight cage might be pricey but it is better for them. Also get different wood perches. And give them lots of veggies
I wish I had birds I did once but it was when I was a child and when I never researched about them and I had 6 in a tiny cage but I wish I had them again I know so much about them now I have wanted one like for 3 years but I just gave up 🙁🙁
Aw! That is so nice!
You have the same cage as my Pineapple Green Cheek Conure
💜💜
I'm 12 and I have three parakeet, one male two females but im getting one more male
Um you need a bigger cage
No dowel perches
Get a stand for the cage because they feel safe higher
Paper and foraging toys
Pellet diet and veggies
Steel bowls
😁btw birds so cute
As bird dad I would buy all of them.
she looks 15!
Very nice of you as a Uncle
The cold breeze doesnt matter I have my two budgies outside and there fine they are wild birds there supposed to be outside
MaLaKa_YT bitch the cold breeze can kill them budgies are In Africa and it is hot there
Ryan Bittner And the Siberian service dog there not only in Africa shut the fuck up bitch don’t tell me how o tra my bird have a budge and he’s fine outside and if he wasn’t he wouldn’t be safe and tamed with me
Some day you might want to get a flying cage on Amazon or places just for birds❤
Next time get one female and one male that way you have babys and also give them veggies furits for health diet and let them fly around a brid room or in the house I would recommend brid room and last but not least trian them and feed them from you hand to gain trust
Damn, my Uncles and stuff never get me anything...I hardly even talk to mine, wanna be my new Uncle Jay Gray? XD
Sure, Why NOT, I love to surprise and spoil people.
