To everyone else... This video is helpful
Like extremely helpful
I got my budgies a couple years ago and we have 2 males and 2 females in the same cage(because they’re social as you know) and 1 male and 1 female ended up becoming a pair I think(they kiss and “share” food and are always together) but the bad thing is, I got them from Petsmart and they’re really jumpy around me and don’t trust me and I can’t seem to get their trust. My female has been kicking all the seed out of the bowl even when we give her fruit or other foods to eat ):
Pet store Budgies always react like that. Wait for the babies and you can train them. Yes it take lots of patience.
@@gobeast4504
I was recently wondering if it was just because my birds are from Petsmart that they’re a little shy
Breed your budgies let them grow a chick take it(very fast and separate it) and train it
@@SIRNOOB50304no no no yok nerede to wait until the baby gets out but herself and has her first feed buy herself
I had the same problem. Not sure what your situation is now but, it's going to die eventually. Stress and them just being assholes which is what they're known for, they will die slowly or sooner
Very informative video.
Awesome video thanks for all the helpful information
Glad it was helpful!
@@BudgieWorld hey budgie world. do you know how to stop your budgies from fighting. i only have 2 and someones i see them bonding other times fighting.
Actually a colony is not a bad thing, it's a matter of preference. If you are into heavy breeding, then breeding compartments, but if not and just let the birds be, then aviary/colony setup.
Great Video Everything you said is 100% sure! keep it up!
Thank you for your support
@@BudgieWorld I have a similar budgie box to yours. I don’t like it very much because one time when j opened it a screw got loose and fell and broke two eggs good thing they were infertile
@@farfreez6367 depending in the brand, I never had this problem, make sure to have a good strong nesting box, it's better to pay couple of extra bucks, and have a better durability :)
Thanks for all this info. Got my own budgie d.
Thank you sir .
Thanks for the awesome video. Your videos are very informative
You are welcome, thanks for the support!
Should I add bedding in the nest box after the chick just hatched
Very imoprtant!👍
Glad you think so!
Hi any information you can give where I can get baby supplies or anything I need to know more
Thanks
Thanks for this lovely video.. Though we r watching your video for the first time but still it's quite informative.. keep up the good work.. Will surely come back to you as a master for any help, if required..🙏
Thank you for your lovely encouraging words! I truly appreciate it😍
somone please answer to this but all my budgies refuse to eat anything but millet and seeds. ive tried to feed them t
hings like, boiled eggs, lettuce, and apple but they remain scared of it. i try to show them me eating it but nothing happens.
What type of material i need to put in the nesting box?
5:18 That nest box 😕
Thanks for the information👍
And nice dog🐶
And a sweet sweet and cute young lady. 😍😍😍❤️💕🌹
Frank Wright shit off, this is clearly a spam/copypasta comment so just fuck off. It’s a budgie video narrated by a male, how idiotic can you be?
1:20 yeah something I think people forget is that this is domestic breeding. It's not like you're replacing environmental stimulus for the successful to breed.
Hi just wanted to know by what age does an English budgie grows to its full size.
hi! does anyone know if budgies will bree do if their wings are clipped? i know they need their wings for balance etc but is it doable for them to breed with clipped wings?
Were do u get dishes for birds?
I want to know what to do when a baby bungie is hatch? Should I just let it be and let mama bungie do all the work? What food should I put for mama bungie to feed its baby bungie?
Very nice informative video. During hatching the female budgie scratch a lot ... is it due to mites ? What instant remedy to take care of such situation ? As the nest can not be disturbed that might spoil the hatching process.
I think they natruly scratch alot. but double check for mites like are they infecting anddd Never mind this was a year ago
nice
Thank you for this video! I have three small budgie babies, the first one hatched on March 10th, should I move the nesting box to the bottom of the cage . I worry about them falling out of the nesting box and getting hurt
You don't need to move the nest box, they will go out of the nest box when they're ready
I have 1 pair of English and Australian budgies my Australian pair have been nesting and hatching the eggs but I noticed that my female doent sit on the eggs very much and when she does and they hatch she wont feed the chicks. I'm just wondering if its something I'm doing wrong or if it's my female, (the female is an albino and the male is bright lemon yellow and is super freindly) the male tries but the chicks never seem to make it. They are a bonded pair
Do you recommend any websites to get budgie toys from, cuz the pet stores near me don't have any
Maybe Amazon. Wish also has a lot of cheap stuff but they harass you to install the app.
Just got my pair of budgies 3 days ago and she started laying eggs today. . what are the "do's" i watched your donts. Didnt plan this yet was hoping to breed toward the end of year. But i guess she alrady had eggs when i got the pair. The owner was moving and couldent take them
Really cute I have two parakeets unless I fight a lot I love parakeet so much will any kind of bird I love how you're so cute🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🐤🐦 my parakeets are actually blue and white and black that's one and then others green and yellow they're so cute
What do you recommend to put in a love birds nest for breeding ( for bedding )
Nesting material like dried grass or shredded wood. Once they started shredding the paper or any thing around. It's time for you to prepare for breeding
How to take care of budgies and their babies....??? Please make a video on it.!
Very informative video sir,
Thanks for sharing your help and experience ,
Can u plz tell me what the exact age for budgies, for breed?
The recommended age is between 1 to 3 years old
Hi
Since you said you can ask me question
I have question for you
Why are my budgies dont eat boiled eggs
They only eat Millets and water
Very little celery
Thanks
hello, i have a pair that have laid eggs and i think theyre too young. I know the hen is a year old but the male is not. i was not expecting egg laying and mating as i dont have a breeding box but my hen made a make shift nest. What do i do? do i leave the hen to raise the chicks or should i seperate them and remove the eggs? i am not a breeder and was not expecting eggs. i would love to keep them if i can but if it is harmful to my pets i dont want to hurt them
what did you do? the same thing happened to me and i dont know what to do
Hi.. my one budies layed eggs.. and after comes baby budgies after .. i made a new aviary ...after i change position of budies box to new aviary .. please tell me it dangerous or not ???...
I have a nesting box for my Budgies. WHEN should I put it up? And when should I take it down?
I have a 1 month old male baby budgie...if I get another baby 1 month old female budgie will they bond and breed when they get older?
Can you use husky shedding as a bedding for their nest? Since many birds use it. My husky just shed lol
I know this answer is really late and you might've already gotten your answer, but to reassure you: you absolutely can! Just make sure that your dog hasn't recently had any fur treatments and all should be fine.
Do you use Diatomaceous Earth to help prevent mites and other parasites?
I use spray for that
I have three budgies 2 males and 1 albino female as told by the shopkeeper so should I seperate them? (The albino and a male is the pair I think so I should take out the other male ? Please reply! Your channel is so informative love your channel

Can you Please do explane more how to clean the breeding box
@@LucknowPetsZone thank you
Sure, I'll keep that in mind 😊
My fully mature breeding pair is not at all breeding even after bonding. Why? Are there any simple tricks to make them breed?
Follow these 10 steps => th-cam.com/video/4iMIRhCH8_o/w-d-xo.html
Yeah the gender is clear. Both doesn't bred in their entire life.
Mine tooo
@@LucknowPetsZone , thanks bro. I'll try those dietary supplements before breeding.
How do you know if there a breeding pair
I have 7 budgies including the new pair I got I was told by the the seller he saw them mating the day before I got them do you think she will lay soon? she goes in the nest box for short periods.
She should most likely lay eggs 8-10 days after fertilised.
This is kinda of late but make sure to gain a moderate amount of trust before breeding because the female could have a heart attack due to high stress
Hi , I need your help
My budgies have chicks hatching. 3 or 4 now, thus far. Several more eggs to go. Everything looks fine thus far. After this breeding, I wish to STOP. My plan will be two flight cages, one for each separated sex. Is this a good plan?? Can I keep everyone together, and prohibit breeding another way??? If sex separation into separate cages is needed - Whats the easiest method of separating all males from females???? Thank you so much for your videos and any advice you may have for me!!
How to separate the breeding budgies from the aviary to cage if they are not tame? Will it affect their breeding if catch them to move to cage?
I want to buy a new pair of budgie...which one can give me the better quality and colour of budgie babies??

How do I get my birds to start breeding?
one thing I have learnt is they need an Audience. If you put them in a cage as suggested and they can't see other budgies they are less likely to breed
Follow these 10 steps => th-cam.com/video/4iMIRhCH8_o/w-d-xo.html
@@cloakanddagger1 true unless you have a loud household like a tv or radio is on 24/7 or have a pretty loud family they will breed. If it's to quiet they are less likely to breed.but normally they will breed regardless like mine did
@@cloakanddagger1 would it help if you put a mirror so they have the feeling they're being watched?
I have 2 budgies and they have their nest and had 3 eggs that hatched but one died. I decided to change them to a bigger nest box. The mom won’t go in. Will she abandon the 2 babies? Can someone help me please
When buying a new breeding pair of birds, how long does it take to breed them? Ive recently bought a dna sexed male and female conures theyve never had babies yet.
Abeed, I used to have two Patagonian conures. One was DNA sex as female the other was not, however I believe she too was female. They have approximately a 30-year lifespan and it took mine approximately 15 years before either one laid eggs! They were highly territorial and possessive of them, downright mean in fact when I tried to clean the cage as I had no breeding box; I wasn't expecting eggs! Best of luck!
I have a question that I would really like an answer to. I like to travel with my budgie. When I go away for a few days is it okay to bring him with me?
i've never done it so im not an expert but i dont think you should bring them because it could be stressful for them. i usually just leave plenty of food, millet spray, treats, fresh vegetables and fruits and they should be good! :)
Well iam in jamaica have a pair off budgie over a year now with nest box but they are nt laying a egg

Breed box inside setup
my parakeet start giving eggs outside of the nest and not sitting on them. Don't understand what's going on. Please help me if it's possible
What does it mean if my budgie doesn't have hair under her beak. I need to know am worried about my bird.
ItsMe JayJay did the bird have hair under her beak from the beginning?
What if your budgie lays eggs in a seed cup because there is no nesting box? If I add one and move the egg there, will they abandon it? It just got laid, so I don't know how many eggs there will be. He has been in with the 2 girls less than a month, whirlwind romance ;)
East to west budgies are the best
I wait till my budgies are 2 to let them start breeding
Are you egyptian ?
Please i don't know what to do
I have 2 buggies just come out of the cage but they cannot stand their legs are expanding each other I feel very bad seeing them
I've had my budgie for a year and tried to give them vegetables and fruits but they wont eat it what should I do?

My little sister just laid an egg. I wanna know the dos and don'ts. Can't wait to play with little budgies!
Hi
Is that green budgie hen. Lmao i made the same drawing for my pfp
I would like some help. I knew nothing aboit budgies. I bought a male and a female. They mated and had 2 chicks in December. They were a happy family in a big cage. But now mummy had laid 2 eggs that broke and 4 shes sitting on which i believe to be from one of her 7 month old chicks. I was shpcled to see the 2 chick boys fighting over mating with her. Twice i have seen them fighting wanting to mate hwr in the morning. But the mummy has just had 2 already in december. I feel sorry for her having another 4 already. Its seem8ng over crowded. She doesnt get chance to eat coz they always want to get on her when she comes out but i dont want to deprive her from being fed by the male or deprive the chicks when they hatch from being fed and kept warm by the male. Coz i noticed the males do alot of feeding and looking after their youg even more than the mothers after they r born. I feel mummy budgy needs a break. What do u suggest? Thanku
Wow my budgies is 6 month old and they laid 2 eggs already
I hve 2 pairs in a single cage n both the female budgies lays eggs in a single nest n now chicks are out 4rm the eggs n both the female feed the chicks together
What do budgies feed there chicks??just wandering
bird seed and water. Make sure they have a days supply of seed and water. add some grit in food . They chew the seed and bring it back up to feed bubs.
So here's what ive done
1. My pair ended up breeding in march. They had their first clutch Around april but it was a massive failure resulting in only one chick who only survived because I had reared them. They also have deformed legs.
2. After a couple months for a break, they had their second clutch.
What i did differently was adding unscented pine shavings to the wooden nest. Mine doesn't have a divot but i made a divot in the bedding. My female laid 8 eggs. I also make them hard boiled eggs everyday and give them calcium grit, mineral block, cuttlefish, and seed/pellet mix. 4 chicks have hatched and they are all healthy.
I also avoided bothering the nest too much and only check in 3 times a day.
3 times a day is to much. only once a day is better.
Enta men ein habibi?
Use soap water to spray around nest box. Mites hate it and birds are safe
@SplayMnBoss I have hundreds of birds and been using for years. Way better than using pesticides
Spray around as in on the box ?? Or the air around the box ?? Or wipe it around/on areas around the box like the cage & box entrance ?!
@@applepiez5607 You can speray around inside without worries. Take the babies out if you like mom and day will leave too. I have 30 nest boxes and we sprayed all of them. all these bugs disappeared. no babies got sick or died.
My male budgie is only 7 months old but mating, after the female lays eggs,. the male is breaking the eggs but continuously it's mating. What to do now. Please explain.
If that is happening you need to separate your budgies even if they are bonded, I know it might be hard if you know that they are bonded really well.
if the eggs are not fertile the buggies will do the egg breaking . Or is the egg contains a non viable off spring the budgies will break eggs too.
my bird is 2 years but their not laying eggs :(
my budgies have laid 4 eggs and they dont eat eggs ,carrots ,apples, cucumbers etc. What should i do to make them eat.
Here -> th-cam.com/video/mQV00IcQIpU/w-d-xo.html
My female budgie laid eggs around 15 days ago. But after laying eggs she has started losing feathers in her chest and stomach region. Should I take her to a vet. Is it normal or anything serious. Please help.
When should you start handling chicks to ensure they enjoy human company?
2 weeks
My budgies are mating while having babies(1st baby age is 1 month)
Should we clean the best box when there is a chick .
put down wood shavings or shredded paper in the breeding box otherwise you get poo building up on bubs feet that dries rock hard .
The budgie had 4 eggs and one came out , but she won’t sit on the other eggs
The eziest way is to separate the male
I had females but I got one male and I want them to breed
What happened to the budgie that couldn’t get her eggs out?
They where egg bound. It means they get stuck inside her.
The hen usually dies. Feed the hen calcium and a small amount of linseed oil. You want prevention as I have taken budgie to vets and they still pass away due to egg bounding
i cannot get my budgies to come onto my finger
