I neglected my last budgie. I really loved him, but my own immaturity and his stubbornness made me give up. He died recently at age 10 and I felt incredibly guilty and sad. My sister got me a new budgie today for my birthday and I promised myself that I will honor my old budgie by not giving up again. I will pour my heart into raising this new one
Yes! You should. my budgies are stubborn too! But they are sweet!! You should take care of your budgie really well. Good luck!!💕
Budgierigars live up from 5-8 years in Captivity. So remember that.
@@avacado3546 not really
@@avacado3546 the oldest budgie that lived in captivity WAS 29 AND 2 MONTH OLD
same
My dad used to be a breeder and we had a big aviary and everything.
but one thing I remember, we never gave our budgies to people that weren't serious and didn't looked responsible enough to take care of a budgie, and it didn't matter to us how much they offered to pay or that they came from a long distance just to get a budgie.
So I can totally relate to every single thing you talked about, but especially the 4th one
That's good. If I was a breeder I would do the same thing. I hate how people get any sort of pet without thinking about the commitment and responsibility. They don't even go through the research about them either. But I'm glad that you did that. There needs to be more breeders like that.
That's amazing. He must really loved his animals and wanted to be sure they went to good homes. I know many bird rescue centers will even do a background check and home inspection before they'll let you adopt a parrot. It's a huge responsibility and often lifetime commitment to own a bird.
We need more breeders like you!
Finally someone makes a video about this topic!
Sadly birds are sold so easily :/
Aynen
For big bucks and that's why we do it
Yea, bit sad. People need to be more strict with who they sell them to.
I had a budgie and he was my best friend.
I was bullied at school and my budgies snow and Amazon were always SO calming.
I am fully responsible for them!!
Wait, u actually hearted me!!!!!
Omg tysm
Heart-warming story good sir, have an up vote.
As a bird owner, I’m really upset by the third one. By the fact that I neglect my bird, I know it and I can’t do anything about it. We moved countries and our bird had to stay behind. My parents give him a diet of only seeds, which can be really unhealthy. Whenever I’m there I cut fruits for him but otherwise our servants who look after him keep forgetting. Another thing is that my dad won’t let him out of the cage because he gets really anxious outside the cage and starts biting everyone. And it really hurts because I love my bird and he loves me too. I don’t have much power in the situation and I’m doing the best I can to make sure he’s happy, but I’m honestly lost in this situation and I’m considering giving him away to someone who can actually care for him, though the thought hurts and my dad’s never going to trust me with a pet again
I’m sorry to hear that.
@lyka sky or try to get him back if he's still alive
My one relative is a budgie breeder.. He used to do such mistakes, but after I explained him these things and the right ways to care, he agreed and his 22 birds are enjoying now a superb life in 2 big sized room aviary❤️✨️ now he loves his all birds, I'm glad the birds are happy now because of me and special thanks to you, Alex and Dzermina's channel From where I got so many informations😊
Well done, you've helped a lot of birds have a higher quality of living.
@@Bird-Nuggets ❤️😊
WHAT!!! Keeping your budgies as toys its so wrong.
Very well said. I get messages all the time to take in birds. I saw part of my video that you used which is fine. I rescued that budgie because no one wanted her. I has to trim her beak often.
Thank you so much!
It's not easy to get messages like that, especially because there isn't much we can do as they live far away.
someone abandoned one of my female pet budgie but my cousin found it and bought it to me and said you were asking for a budgie for years at first we both were afraid to interact but now we are best friends we interact a lot, ♥♥♥♥she already sat on my head today at afternoon.😄😄♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥🐦🐦🐦🐦she came on 9th august 2021, So we're gonna celebrate her bday on that day
I've made a lot of mistakes with my birds in the past. Specifically, we allowed them to breed too much, which ended with the death of one mother. We had to surrender several of them because we just had too many.
Currently I'm struggling with providing fresh foods, since they seem to hate anything but seeds. But watching your videos has inspired me to try harder. I'm going to work on better enrichment and nutrition for my flock, at least more than I have been.
Same. My birds will only eat apple for nutrition.
put some veggies and fruit on a plate and sprinkle it with seeds! That's how i got my budgies to want to eat pears! :)
That's just sad that we're living in a world where people treat birds like that😪😪😪
They treat people worst.
True
@@iUmarFarooqi wdym by that
@@yashiro-kun3382 Back in 1000 BC. Budgie use human as worker to build house and tool
@@Bruh-xj7zb lol
I can’t believe people would treat a bird in that way,these gorgeous creatures deserves love,care and a lot more.They should learn these birds have needs,and get what they rightfully deserve.
This is a cruel world to live in with people that don't know how to take care of their birds properly.😢😢😭😭😭😪😪😪 HELP THE BIRDS I feel SAD!!!!!
treat the birb like ur own child
Exactly
slapping it and make it wanna die everyday?
@@Kimarnic not like an asian one*
YES SIR YES SIR
Tiny birb
Sooo important!!!! I hate rich ppl that get exotic birds just to show off 😒
The thing about macaws and the like is that even if you have other birds and know what you're doing, they're a lot of work. That's my experience with my greenwing, anyway (she's nice, but actually *attacked* my dad bc he was trying to eat his own cereal. She likes cereal). Apart from that, she's a good bird, has a great diet (apart from the cereal that she mugs everyone for) and is doing really well with training. She's still not even a year old so no free flight yet.
Honestly, I never knew my birds needed other foods beside seeds. I tried to look for salad or lettuce and I don’t have any. But sometimes I put small pieces of apples inside their seeds. 😄
I prefer a mixture of 50-75% seeds with apples, celery, and pecans.
@@anti-goosecult7403 I see, thank you!
@@anti-goosecult7403 too many seeds is not good for them, and makes it easy for them to become obese. There should definitely be a less percentage of seeds in your mix, although it would be difficult to slowly adjust them to a new diet

My dad brought my budgie home one night. He didn’t tell anyone he just went ‘Oh that’s cool let’s buy it’ and didn’t do anything after, he won’t buy her a friend and neither of my parents will take her to a vet. She gets fed and stuff but my parents won’t do anything else
Maybe you should show them some of my videos and particularly this one, it could possibly help them understand more about budgies and how similar they are to dogs and cats.
@@Bird-Nuggets or any other living being...
Is it still alive?
Same. I can't do anything about it because I don't have money to buy them toys and stimulation stuff and my parents couldn't care less and thinks that being locked up in a cage with nothing inside is how they wanna live their lives!
I love your video it is amazing I want to take your phone number
@@Bird-Nuggets
I've been binging your videos over the past few days. I very unexpectedly got a baby budgie that my mum just couldn't leave in the shop and she surprised me with him. He definitely isn't unwanted though - we've been talking about getting another pet for a while but just couldn't decide on what to get.
I had a budgie when I was little and he was the best boy - always there for me. However, it's been quite a while so I definitely needed the refresher course on budgie care!
I had a small-ish cage (just your usual bird cage) laying around that he's stayed in as he got used to his new surroundings but I just built his new flight cage - it's huge! Got lots of new toys and plenty of natural things. Gonna start on getting him used to hands now and hopefully get him out the cage soon!
Thank you so much for the great videos!
I hope things have been going really well with your little one! It sounds like you’re really invested in giving them a fantastic life, I love hearing people talk about the animals the way you do, with excitement and love. ❤
@MeganKugs oh yeah, he's enjoying life now! We got another male budgie from a family member who didn't really look after him well and the two hit it off immediately. They live together now and my brother really wanted to look after them himself (it was totally fine - they're just residing upstairs now and I already have a lot of animals to look after so it takes the stress of feeding and cleaning off me). They're in my brother's room and, since his door is closed practically all the time, they get free range of the room almost 24/7. There's a small cage on top of the flight cage so they can go between the two.
The budgie I mentioned above, Sky, is still quite the skittish little thing when it comes to people but that's fine - he doesn't need to come on our hands for us to love him. The other budgie, Sprite, does step up but can be a little spicy at times, though I don't blame him since he got little attention and physical interaction from his previous owners. He's still great and is obsessed with phones 😆
My first time owning a bird was almost 5 years ago. I was only 10 years old at the time and my parents didn't take good care of the bird. I wasn't ready for this kind of responsibility and because of that, I also neglected the poor bird (which I named Cody). We only fed him seeds and he didn't have a variety of toys. Cody had a partner but sadly she didn't live for long, because she was sick the day we bought her and my parents didn't take the illness seriously. We never got Cody another partner. We never spent any time with him and we would always have him in a room by himself. Cody lived for another few years before he died in June of this year.
It breaks my heart knowing that I treated Cody this terribly. I've never felt such guilt before and I wish I would've realized sooner the things I was doing wrong. I still beat myself up to this day thinking about the terrible owner I was.
I have two new birds now, and I've devoted so much of my time to them and I vowed to give them the best life possible. My parents still don't take care of the birds so I have to do it by myself, but I don't care. As long as my birds are happy, then I'm happy
cody is a legend
Next, you start to slowly show them how to take care of a bird
Or if you're feeling particularly evil don't do what you're asked and say it's how they treat the bird
Repeatedly
One of my friends at the age of 5 when I was also 5 had a budgie he was actually much seriously and careful than the average 5 year old he knew many facts about it now I know what he spent his time on when he couldn’t go outside to play with me
Think now we all know the important things to care about our birds.. They are our friends always have been always will be..😇🕊 I just wish that People would take better care of there birds.. NO SMALL CAGES AT ALL.... only for taking your birds to the vet or traveling..😇🤗
I wanted my Budgie because he is so nice and cute and i i am never tired og my Budgie i and i love taking care of my Budgie ❤️
I liked this video a lot!
It shows how much people can be misinformed about how to really care for it.
Giving a bird to irresponsible people who do nothing but leave it by itself is wrong.
After seeing the part where you said it’s not right to keep budgies alone, I rushed to my budgie’s cage and I picked all three of them up, I ma now watching this video with them, thank you for reminding me they are not a toy but a beautiful living creature, I will pick them up everyday now for 2-3 hours a day and teach them new tricks, for others ignoring the signs, your bird is precious and deserves a experienced and determined owner
Its a rant but I need to tell it somewhere, I spent 3 month just staring to my new budgie and when he was no longer afraid of my presence I trained him, after that he flies around the house 3 to 4 hours a day minimum. It's been like that 2 years so my parents were like, oh he's not gonna fly aways so they just left the bird outside when they went to work, they did close the window in the living room, but they left their window in the bedrooms wide open, the bird flew out. My parents didn't even bother searching for him and I didn't knew until I got home late at night since I was out in a friend's house. I posted online and printed flyers but guess someone took him in and decided to keep him and not return it (I hope, otherwise he is probably dead). The problem was that we got a pair, and the one that stayed home didn't want to eat nor drink and doesn't even chirp, so for the sake of the one that stayed, I bought a new budgie and she started eating a bit more and even started chirping again. It was fine the first 2 days, but on the third day I had to travel to another city to take my finals in college, so I told my parents to not put them in the same cage, to feed them and clean the cage daily and to not try to train the new one. I arrived home a week later and find the buggie really sick with diarrhea and couldn't even take him to the vet bc it died the same night. For them it comes down all to money, bc taking the bird to a vet is like 5 times more expensive than getting a new one. Not that they are extremely greedy, just that they don't see the animals life equally important. Those type of ppl aren't meant to have any animal at all. The new bird just died yesterday and the budgie that stayed is again depressed. I'm feeling really guilty to have bought a new budgie but didn't take care of him and also making the one I had more depressed.
I'm sorry, but your parents are EXTREMELY ignorant and oblivious people, and frankly, they are MEAN. I don't care how they feel about animals, they also know how YOU feel and should have had the simple respect for your wishes, your feelings and YOUR PET, a living feeling being. You should give your remaining bird to someone you can trust to be caring and dependable before they manage to kill this one too and don't get another pet until you live on your own away from these horrible, horrible people.
And you can have your revenge when they are old and helpless and YOU will be in charge of THEIR care. Let them know they should start worrying now.
@@User31452 yes, I plan on getting budgies when I live on my own and have a work. But it's too extreme the part when my parents get old😓 they at leat took care of me and are paying for everything including now my college and dorm fees. They're good but just not meant to have any pet. I'll keep the bird until the end of summer before I leave again for college and hand her to someone trustworthy and caring (just hope it'll be anyone I'm close with, then I can visit anytime)
@@junyuduye704 - You MORE than make up for your parents, with your kindness, understanding and evolved attitude toward animals, esp. birds, and I truly appreciate your courtesy in your response. I wish you all the best, in school and beyond, and may your own home someday be filled with the happy sounds of many beautiful birds.
Was he a blue male budgie?
@@techx4931 yeees! Are u from Spain??
I got my birds from my Neighbors because they were moving to a new country. My older sister always told us not to play with them as if they were supposed to be decoration. We took really good care with them too. We took them outside, let them out of their cage, played with them, cleaned their cage, etc. I still miss them
If you wouldn't do the things Salvador Budgie explains(in this video) to a human child, don't do it to an animal. Living beings who depend on us are obligated to being healthy, happy, and most importantly; loved.
Where did you get your budgies?
My budgies have a small cage but my dad said we're going to build a bigger cage for them and I let them out everyday👍
I do not have budgies, but recently my father was "GIFTED" 2 parrots. The person who gifted my father the birds clearly did not want to care for them anymore & was getting rid of them.
I have bought a packet of seeds for them, feed them green vegetables and fruits routinely. I am also going to be upgrading their current cage which is (1.5ft x 1.5ft) in size, to a cage that is 3ftx 2ft in size.
Cleaning of their cage is being done twice a day almost daily, once at the very least.
I hope I am on the correct path of caring for them🙏
I am so glad that I saved the 4 parakeets they are in a better home and safe and they are having a good life I am so glad that I don't do anything of those 4 things 😀😊❤ I love my birds and thay are starting to trust me a little... funny I have 3 guinea pigs one dog at home and 4 birds and about 40 chickens lol.. What a life to live in
I take care of my budgie well and thanks for the video!
this video made me realized i’m not a good bird owner but i’m not doing horrible. i’ll be giving it a good diet, and interact with it, but it’s mostly my brother (he’s 10) who needs to learn this.
i stress about my birds all the time i know i do the best i can for them I'm obsessive at times where i will spend almost 4-5 hours around their cage and talk in a high pitch voice too the point of me even getting a head ache i just love and adore animals so it breaks my heart too see such inhuman actions towards these gorgeous and hyper intelligent bundles of Joy
I took a an entire week of research before I got my budgie. as soon as I got one my sister decided she wanted one too. Later on she gave me her bird and the Idea of taking on two birds made me unmotivated which lead to 6 months of just doing the bare minimum of water food and cleaning. Now I gave her back her budgie and im taking 20 minutes of hanging out with him and leaving the cage door open so he can fly out. he's a bit nervous because its all new to him, But I do try my best
the neglecting one hit me. I really now do better and their health has increased since i watched this video 10/10
I find all of these signs on my teacher, he used to scold me in online class when my birds used to make noises, but now he thinks birds are pretty and got like 20 birds of different kinds, he is really busy and his wife is pregnant, so he really can't take care of them. Two of his birds even died bc of starvation. He doesn't tame his birds and whenever he needs to hold them, he squeezes them to the point the birds starts crying for help. He gets birds to breed them and even asked me to buy some of the babies. I am a college student, I am already busy. I can't take care of more than 3-4 birds, so I declined. I told him several times that he should not have birds, but unfortunately the animal protection services here aren't the best and I can't do anything to save those poor birds.
Me convincing my parents to get me a decent size cage diffrent food every day and new perches every month
I'm trying to do the same 😥
Same here, except more with toys nd putting it in a kids room so they bond with a human, too
Same, and I'm trying to change the bids diets they are on seed diet atm but I give them fruits like apples chopped up sometimes
Im getting a budgie in a month and my dad is buying it for me because i really want one amd i watch almost every single video you post so then i can learn more about my future budgie. I love your videos keep it up
His name is felix he died 2 weeks after I got him so in September he was a very good and loving budgie he would literally trust you with is life soon after he died from a heart attack or something. He fell at the bottom of the cage and died.
@Jellybean The Unicorn (Skittles the Unicorn) I am i got 2 bonded cockatiels and they are playful
I always enjoy your videos!😇😇😇 I definitely agree with you on this topic. Beautifully presented!🌷🌷🌷
Thank you for telling all this . This is really helpful 👍
I am so glad someone made a video about it. One time I saw a video on YT a parrot's feet needed to be cutted off because of the snow covered texas, it's owner forgot to bring the bird in. The bird was found outside of the house in it's cage it does not look like its alive good thing it was rescued by their neighbours.😢🥺😭😄
I adopted 2 budgies, who lived in a tiny little cage, they are a bit over a year old both, and the first thing I did was buying them a big cage. The cage they were in was barely big enough for one of them let alone two!
When we got our bird (im 10) I got so responsible to watch your videos bc they're helping me when I see a lil problem in my raising I would avoiding doing the bad thing also thanks for the videos bc they're really helpful
Chipper and Chico are my life they come before anyone else I take very good care of them they give me unconditional love every day
its hard for me to take care of my 3 budgies due to my depression, but waking up every morning to them head bobbing singing always warms my heart xd
they free roaming in my room with the cage being open 24/7, the female 1 specifically made it VERY clear they don't like being in there waiting for me to set them free for the day, she did that by banging the cage door trying to open it, & also just sitting there with that 1 stare XD
she's a huge diva, whenever they out of food she reminds me by annoying my dog to make him bark & not let me sleep at ~8 or 7am, is a hard & really annoying but really rewarding so much in seeing them so happy everyday
About the veggies thing … yeah every time I try to feed my budgie a fruit or veggie she doesn’t want to eat it she just stares at it or just starts flying around I keep them in her feeder but she still doesn’t eat it but I still love her for the way she is and yes I do take her out Every day
Your videos are very helpful!keep it up!thank you so much!
Working on getting my bird on to pellets and more veggies, and a bigger cage than just the recommended is on its way! Really happy
Once my budgies partner died and she became like the replacement : stubborn and kept biting
Thank you for making this video and I don't mean to be racist and I even have arab friends and they will also tell you that the main people who getting birds and especially canary to sing in their living rooms and then replace them for a better bird is mainly arab people and also Indians
This channel has helped me sooo much, keep up the good work < 3
I am twelve and I feel extremely guilty about taking care of my parakeet, Freddie. I have been definitely neglecting her, not spending much time with her at all, and I have had her since I was about seven. I feel awful -- she's very untrusting and quiet, and always bites me when I take her down every once in a while. (I don't blame her) I'm making a plan to spend time with her every day, but it's just been such a long time I feel like a bad owner. I hope deeply that she's not depressed, as she hardly ever tweets and chirps, and I really have done an awful job with her. I haven't thought much about it, as she doesn't seem exactly unhappy, and my family actually worried about getting another bird in fear she would have an adverse reaction to another animal with her.I don't know if taking her out of the cage is okay, because we did that once or twice a few years ago and she didn't react well. I'm wondering if anyone has tips or help for better bird care and help me not to feel bad about this whole situation. I know I haven't done well and I truly want to do a better job in the time we have left!
Thank for any help or suggestions, and again, I feel terrible about this mistreatment of my bird. I have a really busy life and don't have a ton of time on my hands, but need to stop neglecting Freddie! I'm looking forward to bonding every day, even if it takes a lot of time! There's a lot going on in my life right now but I know I am doing a truly horrendous job of taking care of my budgie, and am working to change!!
I have a pet duck she is treated like royalty!😊
good to hear 💪
Nice I have 2 parekeets
He said you should not buy birds to play with them but I bought birds for the exact reason as I love birds and cannot live without them, so I play with them all the time. But I can say that even if I bought them to play, I provide them with true happiness. Their food, water and snacks are all in a balanced diet and in proper times. They have plenty of toys. Their cage is spacious enough as well. So, I hope I'm not doing the wrong thing.
He said not to buy birds as a living toy for kids
Love your videos!😍
I’ve tried countless of times to give my budgies a fruit or vegetable but they never even take a single bite.however, 2 of my budgies were from other people who cared for it while the last one was from petco. That may be the reason why.
Treating it like a toy or decoration? Hell no. My birbs are the best friends i could wish for. They are the funniest, cutest and lokale persons i ever met, and i couldn't imagine living without them. Also, my birbs live outside the cage. I let them out once, and now they can leave the cage whenever they want, except for if i have to tighten the fly screens in the window for example. They still can go inside the cage tho if they want some peace
That's cool and all, but why for God's sake do you have a picture of a Naz i ?
@@itsTiffany12 Wait until you find a TH-cam account named Hitler, then we can talk
Thank you for posting this video about such a very important subject. Even in this video, the toddler let the birds beek in his mouth which is toxic to the bird due to our saliva.
I recently got a new pet bird about a month ago and he’s already flying out of the cage every day. He gets terrified very easily but we make sure to give him all the love, care and attention he needs
I have three budgies and they literally are like my babies they are like my children to me I love them so much 😊
Question:
Are budgies and Cockatiels the same when training and taking care of?
Cockatiels can be very different in many ways. Of course, every bird will have a different personality, but cockatiels tend to be a little more high-maintenance as they tend to require more attention from their owners. If you bond with your cockatiel, then the bird will be very needy when it comes to attention, scritches, and time outside of its' cage. Budgies are prey animals and are naturally very shy, so they can be hard to hand-tame, but it is still important to make sure that any bird becomes familiar with your presence.
Most birds have similar diets, but might need more sustenance depending on their size. Cockatiels are much larger than budgies. It is important to make sure that you are ensuring that your bird's cage is the right size, as they need to be able to have enough space to stretch their wings and fly around, as well as having toys and their food bowls. You would need a very large cage for a cockatiel, compared to a budgerigar.
Can't tell you much about budgies, but it's really difficult to train cockatiels (haven't had any successful trained ones and my family has had cockatiels for years, with around 4 handtame and 3 untamed.
@@legendarytomatobird2816 that comment was a year ago lol. so update i got 3 cockatiels i managed to train 2 of them and the 3rd one wouldn't co operate but its doing well.
My grandmother adopted a budgie a few years ago, and when I went there last, the cage was filthy, the bottom of the cage was covered in it’s poop and it’s toys were dusty and full of rust. I asked her when was the last time she cleaned it and she said she couldn’t even remember when she did. I told her she needs to clean it and she just said she’ll get to it in the most “I don’t give a damn voice” . It’s sad knowing some people think small animals don’t need a lot of care
I had a similar story but with a different type of bird that I couldn't identify. I didn't realize that I was hurting it and thought that it was happy until I grew older and finally came to my senses. I truly don't think that I should own a bird ever again after I made such a big mistake. It also passed away at quite a young age judging from how long I owned it. I now have a different pet that isn't a bird and I'm currently trying to be a better owner and learn from my past mistakes.
I LOVE COMING HOME TO MY BUDGIES!! AND OUR BUDGIES KNOW IT TOO!! I ALWAYS GO TO THEM BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE, OUR LITTLE LADY IS VERY POSSESSIVE & WILL SPEAK HER MIND WHENEVER SHE WANTS, WHILE OUR LITTLE BOY BLUE IS LIKE A TURTLE. HE'S SUCH A HANDSOME BOY WITH SUCH A CHILLED OUT PERSONALITY!! MY WIFE & I COULDN'T IMAGINE OUR LIVES WITHOUT THEM!!
Thanks for this video ❤️ I have learned so many things from you!
Only thing I do "wrong" here is not letting them outside the cage, but will have to wait till I tame them and I can rely on them to come back and not injure themself due to panicking. But I bought the biggest small-bird cage I could find, about a meter long and and more than a meter tall flying area
Im a kid and i gotta admit birds/parrots arent toys- just like how humans are not objects u need full responsiblity to take care of one with all your love
i have neglected my bird for years after my first one flew away. i have felt so gilty and have been trying hard over the last month to earn their trust
your channel gives me alot of information i need to get a budgie ive been watching your videos all day for reserch on how to take care of a budgie bc my mom is gonna buy me one
I love birds, and even tough i am not a breeder i hate how people "care" about them. I've got 4 rescuees from bad owners and 2 of my own. I never set strict rules, other than sleep time and staying out of kitchen and bath and made my home as bird safe as can be. They can freely roam, have their own perches and plants (non toxic for them of course) and yet still linger in their cages most of the day.
Buut they also learned to open their doors themselves and i absolutely love how they do it.
To be honest I kinda do the 3rd one like I always forget to feed them frites and vegetables but I don’t do anything of the others and am starting to give them they’re favorites all the time
I have a budgie and im at school For 7 hours and when I get home I run upstairs and play with him
i have got a 1 budgie and a parakeet 3 months ago and i have 2 seeds for them but they live in a small cage but when ramadan ends i will get them a big cage and some toys and also a bath (no toys are gonna be metal) and probably some other plants and vegetables and fruit and stuff like that and thank you so much for all the tips
For training budgies, are you suppose to have two separate cages for two different birds in order to train them? I wasn’t sure if this is okay if you’ve had a pair that have been in the cage together for awhile. Should I just have the two cages next to each other? I really don’t feel like separating them if I don’t have any evidence that it won’t hurt them. Anyone got any articles or Salvador Budgie, you feel like answering this one?
i feel like im neglecting my bird or treating it poorly, i do have a small cage but were currently low on money and cant afford a new one, and i try to give it variety but im not sure what to feed it, which is why i watch these videos
Thank fully in not in one of these but from where i got my bird the, whole market is mistreating the birds and rabbits etc. I got a big enough cage for only 2 birds. In that same cage there were already 8 birds at the shop. There isn't even any animal protection org. In my country.
Great video agian you have helped me so much with taking care of my budgies
My birds used to be breading machines and i had almost 20 cockatiels but i saw my wrongs and i gave them to familly member who have been looking for a bird for weeks and i only kept 1 that i really loved and hand fed. I got them because I saw videos of birds singing and dancing and i wanted that but didnt get it so i ended up neglecting them.
Excellent advice to all bird owners both current and new!
I’m Glad That Many People Have Seen This Important Video
my mum refuses to buy a bigger cage for my budgie, her excuse: she used to own budgies. which just makes it more concerning, currently, my budgie has what most people call a travel cage. tall, thin, and unsuitable for playing and movement. I only allow him to sleep and eat in his cage, and have moved all his toys out aswell as some other food and water dishes so he can just have those when he doesn't want to go for a nap. I watched a few of your other videos, and was not aware that they should have a diet. I'm going to start with some of the tricks you showed on how to get them to eat fruit and veggies, I'm also going to try and save up pocket money for a new bigger cage and new toys. I unfortunately don't have anyone he could stay with while getting enough money
We legit cannot put my birds on a pellet diet because the only pellets are the wrong size especially for my budgies
My ringnecks used to be in a travel cage. I was so sad and my mom got them a new cage. It was small but much larger than the old one and we got them a new cage which turned out to be a rabbit cage and they could slip through the bars so they are temporarily in a pretty small cage until we find a proper cage and the my budgies got the 2nd cage my ringnecks had which is suitable for them
My dad got me two birds to keep me busy but I love them and take care of them
Violet is a great companion I actually got her after I came out of the hospital make me really happy that right baby
I always asked myself randomly but sincerely am I a bad owner but I got my answer when I saw my bird happy and this video makes me more happy that I don't do and can't even thing of doing this things shown in video and also having just for fun is so not good it a life we should even pet a bird and if we do we should make sure to love his and give him respect and should take his proper care😊
My first budgie was in for 7 days before i let her out the other two came the same day i let them free the 2nd day i think... they are both boys saw my girl and felt at home. They poop on my window sill but easy wipe up and they love my hair 😂... They go into the cages on their own ... I keep them out until the evening before it gets dark. Then when they fly in or i put the cage near them i close them up for bed.
Great video I love it don’t worry I really take care of my birds
I got a baby budgie on Friday, and he is still terrified, it’s hard to agree with terms with the little dude, he is so scared. But He’s out of his cage a lot and my mom is showing me how to clean his cage. He can’t hold big food in his mouth so we feed him baby bird formula my mom made and some seeds, but we are trying to feed him other things like broccoli:) This video is helping me understand how to take care of them. Thank you.
And his permanent cage isn’t here yet (stupid Amazon taking too long)
im taming my new pet budgie, and when you brought up the neglecting part, i felt SOO bad for my budgie. I am probably a bad owner, and i feel so bad for her
I give my cockatiel seed mix along with dried herb and different kinds of food sticks - millet and fruit ones. I will make sure to add vegetable chop with egg to his diet. He is only locked in the cage when I am sleeping, and he loves sleeping on my shoulder and getting scritches.
I have 2 birds that keep giving baby's we take care of them and nothing bad is happening or happend to them Alhamdulillah, since we have so many birds we gave a few birds to my uncle he's a big expert he owns more than 40 birds and they are not budgies so they come out when they want and always comeback, we have budgies and gave them a few since he had 10-13 and gave a few to someone who really wanted it, InshaAllah they are taking great care of it!
2:06 I feel sorry for the bird its so cute I want to adopt it but I live far from her/his place. I have 6 birds 1 left because 2 flew away and 3 died my poor Bird is sad because of that 😔.
Wow... luckily I’m none of these I’m getting a Indian ring neck for my birthday turning 13 and I’m lucky enough to have been researching all I can on its needs dangers proper toys and all and doing none of these signs you showed in this video I promise I will look after my bird properly and get ready for the dangers, environment and all it’s needs to make sure it lives a happy life 😁
I am absolutely a kid. I’m 14 years old and I didn’t even hurt my Budgie. She was my friend for all of school days.
I.AM.HERE!!
God your videos have helped me so much I just got 2 budgies!!!
Your to helpful
A BIG THANK YOU FROM ME ,BLUE AND BERRY !!
(my birds name are Blue and berry!😅)
i have a bird and i feel like im treating him bad but after this i see hes living nicely 🥰
when i read the title, i thought this dude was trying to insult me
your videos had helped me a lot
And also I don't use them like toy
Because they always make me feel better and happy
i know i wont do any of these, but since im a bit young, i feel guilty when watching this video. i have been researching on birds for a week and have been trying to convince my mom to let me have one. i have had many different pets and still do today. i have never neglected them and they all lived very happy lives. i want a budgie/parakeet because i think they will be such a nice companion, and not for decoration. i want to treat all birds with respect and love, and i just think they are such fascinating animals who can have great long lives with the help of people. but getting one for decor. or just as a living toy are such bad things. your channel has been really helping me research about how they behave and many other things. when i wanted a gecko my mom didnt, and now that i have one, she really, and i mean it, really likes my gecko. this was the same with my bearded dragon that sadly passed recently... but thank you so much for everything, have a good day and i hope you see this.
3:19 awww hi munchkin!!!!!
