most of the time they bite because they're nervous 🤷🏻♀️ I had a budgie who thought hands are something for him to eat, because he used to eat a lot and literally everything 😂
I believe that’s why mine do it, they are hand fed babies about 3/4 months old now. They equate the hand with food still. Funny story: I was sleeping on my couch one afternoon and my little escape artist opened her food door and got out. I’m having a dream that monkeys are biting my thumb and it’s starting to hurt more and more, I wake up and there’s my little Budgie biting the living heck out of my thumb to wake me up and feed her. 🤣
If anyone here is suffering with a biting bird make sure of these steps: 1) Birds always bite for a reason. Find what reason that is by seeing what u do exactly before they bite. If for example they started biting u after u for example grabbed them to get them back into their cage then next time try to lure them in by treats or a phone playing bird sounds near their cage. Be patient! 2) The bird usually doesn’t bite immediately! It will first show u signs like for example backing up or opening their beak to show you that you need to stop! At this point u can either back away or distract them with something for example a treat or toy they like to make them forget that they were even trying to bite u! 3) If you weren’t able to spot signs that show that ur bird is about to bite, and u get bit, make sure to do ONE of these 2 things: 3a) If u have a GOOD bond with ur bird then pull ur hand away gently and do a little scream (not too loud). This is what birds do to other birds when they are for example preening too hard and they want them to stop 3b) If you have a BAD bond with ur bird then DO NOT react! So leave ur hand there and don’t make a sound! 4) Show them that ur hand is something that brings them good so whenever u put ur hand near them and they don’t bite make sure to reward them. BEWARE: DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT give a treat to a bird AFTER they bite or you’re just teaching them that they will get rewarded after they bite which may cause this behavior to be repeated!!! TAKE A SCREENSHOT OF THIS COMMENT, YOU MAY WANNA REFER TO IT! :)
If I tell u something the point 2 is opposite of my bird if I am trying to feed him he's not eating or something or he's playing he will get a shock type thing he instantly bites (not showing signs) and will come near my face and slap me with his wing I don't know how he learned that (he's name is lemon) he's still my cutie lemon
I always put greens in my birds cage with my left hand , somehow I figured that I can always prank him , 😂 I come up to him like am about to put greens for him to eat he will excitedly jump on my hand (right hand so he can eat) and I then show him there's nothing in my hand ,when ever I do this he instantly bites me in anger of not giving jos fav food greens. To him 😂🤣
I feel like my budgie sunberry would never even stop biting me even tho if I follow these steps.She literally bites me and sometimes it’s just a nibble but I really try to stay still with it tho.Sometimes i can’t stay still but most of the time,now I can stay still.Very useful tho.❤️❤️❤️
The best way to bond with a parakeet is get them when they’re still young preferably at 6 weeks because that’s when they’re old enough to leave the nest. I got my budgie at a bird store at 6 weeks, he was $60 as opposed to $20 but it’s definitely worth it. I also asked the shop keeper which one was the friendliest. He was the most trusting parakeet I ever had, he went on my shoulder and borrowed into my shirt and sleeves, he learned how to talk, he was very loving and let me pet and massage his face, he didn’t bite unless he was in a pissed off mood lol but never hard enough to hurt, and he did really funny things a lot. I also would clip his wings in the summer so he could go outside in the grass and he would also stay on my shoulder when I went for walks. When you get them that young they bond with you as if you’re their mother so he was especially close with me but also nice to other people as well. Also make sure you spend a lot of time with them, as soon as I came home from school he would stay out of his cage until it was ready to go to sleep. The more time you spend with them, the more they trust and love you.
I would encourage you to look into the effects of clipping a birds wings, it can have many side effects and is usually deemed abuse unless for medical reasons. Even though a birds wings are clipped they still have the ability to be carried away in the wind or to find their way somewhere far from their owner, many bird owners have lost their birds this way.
Ty so much. The first way was too hard but the protection it helped me so much, thank you for giving me this information my bird can finally stop biting every damn time.
My budgie, Romeo bites me all the time! I’ll try not to react in the future. It hurts though. They’re really hard bites, w/blood even sometimes. He also gives me constant kisses, & lots of love, but he won’t leave his cage. Its a cage for a larger bird so he can fly in it. His wings are not clipped. No way! He’ll be a year old this month. I got him for myself & my 17 year old shid-zue to love, & be a family together. I’m a very gentle & a loving person. (Emotional too.) I am fun as well w/him. He picks up on all my emotions and it’s a sweet relationship, but the biting is truly devastating for me. I know he wants to interact w/me, (or maybe he hates me?) Idk…😔 He get jealous if I even watch tv. He gets mad. I had a budgie 25 years ago that went everywhere w/me and never, ever, bit me!! I don’t understand..😣 Romeo speaks very well. He is showered w/attention, treats, fresh water, fresh greens, and food daily. My 17 year old doggie Angel, passed away recently, which has been very heartbreaking, & we also recently moved. (Angel & Romeo were best friends.) Romeo has been w/me through it all. (He’s my man, hence the name...) I’m a loner so he gets all my love. He has huge patio windows he is near to look out daily. Not too much Sun, just enough. He has his own iphone w/a variety of budgie videos daily to enjoy. I cannot get another budgie. I’m in an apartment now. He gets very loud during play all on his own! 😁 Yes, he has a mirror he adores, & protects it fiercely. Was that a mistake? If I took it out, he’d never forgive me. I know this. I really want to bond w/him. It’s been a year this coming March since I got him, & I really need help. I don’t know what to do about this biting and him not leaving his cage. He won’t even perch on my finger! Even w/fresh millet.😔 Yes, I’m clean. Lol This is a really big deal to me. I know he wants to try, I think? He’s so loving when the door is shut and my hand is out of the cage. He jumps on the side to visit w/me all the time. Everytime I walk by actually. He’s just so afraid to interact outside of the cage. It’s so sad. As I said, I’m very kind to him. What do I do? This is not what I expected or hoped for.

Oh boy!! 😂 Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!! Please do be kind though. Thank you!!
My tip, worked for my baby lovebird, who has now become very trusting: he's still scared of your hand, every time you put it in his cage you're invading his safe space. Try, over time (don't be impatient!) to either get him out of the cage by letting him perch on something far away from your hand, lured by his favourite treats. I just used one of those firm sticks that have all the seeds on them. If you know his favourite treat it gets a bit easier. If he's too scared to leave, even getting him closer to cage door will be progress. Eventually he will learn that its not that scary. At some point you introduce your hand, closer to the food, but not very close. Over time you keep closing this distance. He will become less sensitive about your hand. Mine used to be terrified of my hands, now its his favourite spot. I can put my hands over him now to play peekaboo too. It's all about tiny progress with lots and lots of repetition! I'm not an expert, but this worked for me. Hope it helps. Ps. If you're able to learn your bird tricks already, this helps, mine was fine running through my hands at some point as a trick, because it was just focused on the trick. It's a good way to be able to still catch him while he doesn't allow you to grab him normally. (Edit: for clarification, making him FULLY trust my hands took many many months maybe like 7 months. He would sit on them at some point, but a finger close would scare him.
@@suzyhomeacre Hi Suzy, best of luck! There's one more thing I would add, I would really recommend to look into "touch training"(youtube it). Its process where you use a dog clicker, treats and a chopstick. Touching the end of the stick, clicker goes off and he gets a treat. Its fun for them, you can teach them tricks and most importantly it puts them into training mode sort of. If they are practicing they are mostly focussed on getting the treat, less worried about your hands. It can make the process go a bit quicker I guess. You could over time just move the target progressively closer to your hand. Happy at some point would run through my tunneled hand when training a trick, but not get anywhere close otherwise haha. It can help a bit, doesn't make them comfortable around hands yet, but can help to show its really not that scary. Besides, its great fun for them and you.
Hi thank you so much for your vidios I got a rescue budgie and I wasent prepaid at all I got the bird last week already siting and flying to me but I know now a little bit more what to do😊 it was flying at a primary school for round about week and the rescuers dident have space for the little girl she got a little wild and gets spooked a little bit when I walk into my room but she know her safe spot is her cage and if she go's there I won't touch her or disturb her. I hope we find her owner/owner's soon we can see she had good owner's and thay must be worried sick.
Whenever you put your finger a few millimetres from it, it will obviously nibble at it. True biting is when your bird lunges at you, with its beak open when your hand is a few centimetres away from you
In the next video can you talk about budgie breeding. Because my female budgie has mated with the male budgie and has layed eggs . I don't know what do I do next
Yeah, it depends on a budgie. The more tamed budgie is, the lesser bites you will get. It's from my experience. Lemon bites us only when he is either playful (he bites his dad as his dad is very emotional and Lemon loves his reaction 🤦😭) or he doesn't want to be petted, touched etc. He's literally a cat 🐈😺🤦😭
My yellow budgie name is lemon to.Always been a biter and hates other birds loves to be rough all the time.bites all tge time and sometimes rips skin a bit.
Ive had my budgie for about 2 months and he just started trying to bite my finger last night, nothing out of the ordiabary was just about to take him out of his cage for a while to talk to him but he was having none of it ! any advice would be GREATLY appreciated as i really want to continue bonding with him and further his taming process. :)
Hi :) my bird knows how to step up and doesn't mind being petted. But he is scared to go outside his cage. How do I make him feel safe to be outside his cage?
It's most likely that he is not scared, but he just doesn't want to interact with you as he has a lot of other fun stuff that distracts him. The best thing to do is to try and tame him in an unfamiliar area.
I have a budgie, he’s 8 years old and we think he has a tumour and the vets can’t do anything else to help so he’s sadly not got long left, I can’t be bothered to go through the stages of grieving because it’s awful but that’s the only way I’ll accept that he’s had a nice life
We've had our budgies for roughly a month. Today our male finally decided to perch on my shoulder, at first it was brief. I shaved my head after all this and now he wants to perch and not leave. I was finally able to get him to transfer to my finger to which he thought would be a good idea to nibble at first then went full on bite mode. My natural response was what I shouldn't have done. Keep in mind this is my first time as a 🐦 owner.
I think distracting a bite with millet will teach your bird to bite for millet, not a good idea. Mine both think it is a game to bite, a very hard habit to break, but they don’t do it hard enough to actually hurt.
It helps. I distract my lovebird and she didn't learn to bite from that, but she's very sweet, usually distract her when she tries to bite herself (I don't know why she does this, but when she gets overly excited or agitated, or even too much in the zone while getting scritches and something startles her she'd start biting herself). I usually give her something to chew on when she gets like this to channel the aggression, but I've seen something over on bird tricks Channel that help, they train the bird to bite the tip of the stick used for target training, gently so it will not bite hard. But these tips are all good and I've used all of them before
Hiii I haven't watched your vids in a bit since it was a little sad when your other budgie passed (I wanna stay till but they rlly bite hard my fingers bleed
Hey, really want to keep 3 birds together. I want to keep a Rainbow Budgie, a White-Faced Cockatiel and a Green Cheek Conure. I know that it is possible to keep a Budgie and a Cockatiel together, but I am not sure if I can keep a Green Cheek Conure along with them. My plan is to get the Rainbow Budgie first and then once I stop hand feeding it, I will get the White-Faced Cockatiel and then finally when I stop hand feeding the Cockatiel, I will get the Green Cheek Conure. What do you think? Can I keep them together? Also is this a good plan? Also I subscribed. You deserve more subscribers. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩:)
Great video. Unfortunately, none of these suggestions work for me. My English girl budgie flies over to me, jumps on my hand, viciously bites me, tries to groom my face, biting and drawing blood. She has NEVER been grabbed nor yelled at. She also flies over to my Bourkes parakeets and attacks them by biting at their face and back chest kicking. She has always been free, not in a cage, comes over to hang out but then starts the biting 😞
I got my bird from a hatchling and she was use to me. I had some sickness in my family and wasn't able to get her out everyday now shes resenting me and biting me. She use to let me scratch her head and she's stopped that as well. How do I get her use to me again so she'll be the bird I once had?
My budgie Azul just started to bite me some and it scared the heck out of me. I still need help to get them to trust me enough where they will step up out on my finger and eat from my hand. The millet spray I have is berry flavored and they just won't except it from me at all. My green budgie Loco is so scared all the time unlike Azul who is pretty calm. I don't what wrong with but I have noticed along his wings that there are these white dots that stick out some should be worried about that? What is the right food I should give my budgies they don't like food that is a little big and they really preferer four things out of the budgie food. Also what are some good vegetables to give them? What's a good portion size of food for my budgies because it seems like they eat a lot. Also I was able to hold one of my budgies but a couple of hours later he was so scared to let me be near him and know I can't even get him to step up on my finger anymore.
I’ve had a conure for a long time and have bareley been able to take him out of his cage, no matter how hard I try to be calm and quiet around him he just won’t stop biting. I put my finger through the cage and he bites, I open it and try to get him to stand on my finger but he just bites it. I’ve always been so jealous of people who can properly pet their bird and desperately want the same experience with mine because he’s so damn cute, but the biting makes it impossible. I’ve tried lots of ways to stop it but none have worked so hopefully this will.
My female budgie wen I first got her bit really hard ( she was just really scared as after that she stopped wen I took her out the get her computable with me she was only three weeks old and I handled her right away, I have done with all my young 3-4 weeks old ones , if you handle them right away because they are so young it dosent even cross their mind that you are there to harm them and are tame right away, the others never bit only my female just once ) budgies most of the time just bite because they are scared
so basically, my bird bites my fingers, and only is afraid of my fingers, if i use gloves or any thing, he starts playing with it. he is a fischer lovebird, he bites my other fischer lovebird and attacks my amazon parrot, he is weird in every way, but i still love him and will still try to apply these steps.
Hi! I've got not long ago a Kakariki. I've had it as baby but the problem is he bites! Everytime he sees my skin and specially the feet he bites after he kissed it. I've always use the wordt "NO" and put him in He's cage and ignore him but it's been a few weeks and he's still the same. It's the same when i wanna kiss him sometimes he kiss and sometimes he bites. I surely don't know what to do :/
I brought home a 3month old senegal and she goes on hands no problem but she does those awful slow but strong bites. Maybe because she thinks my fingers are feeders.. any help?
When I got my bird she was a scared,tiny baby and she would let me pet and cuddle her. Now she’s molting and absolutely hates being cuddled :( but this will help. She bit my aunt so hard it’s crazy 😅
I think my bird is afraid of hands? Idk he sees them and he ducks or runs away into his cage he can’t stand hands but will have no problem standing on shoulders or anywhere else as long as it’s not hands and that even calms him sometimes. He’s been that way since we got him and we’ve tried rewarding him for not biting and changing his diet but it seems he just does it to be aggressive but I know he’s probably just traumatized?
Iis it normal for a budgie to basically chew on nothing? I got one yesterday and today he's been making a lot of chewing noises but he hasn't touched his food at all.
My budgies have never bit me even on day one buuuut my Quaker Parrot on the other hand bits the crap out of me. I have tried everything with him but he still acts terrified 😢
hi salvador budgie, im worried about something. my budgie's (3-4 months old) flying speed went down could it possibly be because he's not eating vegetables i try every day though he just does not eat them and sometimes fly away in fear so my question is, is it normal that he is significantly slower? i really need an explanation.thank you
What if my tamed bird is aggressively biting ,the day before I tried taking him from my room (where his cage is 24/7) ti the living room and he immediately freaked out and started getting in top of my neck and biting me so I took him back to my room and this morning when I was changing his water he attacked me. Idk why. I tried giving him a treat and he still attacked my hand. So why is he biting so hard, what did I do wrong?
My budgie isn't biting me but he has been preening my arm alot. It ends up hurting cause it feels like he is nipping my skin and I end up with a rash on my arm. I've tried moving him away but he just comes back. I've also tried to ignore him when he does it but it hurts and I have to move my arm away from him
Mira, los míos me muerden, pero tengo los dedos con tanto cayo y el cerebro ha memorizado el dolor que ya ni lo siento😂😂 tenía una periquita que sí mordía con ganas. Ahora tengo dos machos y lo que hacen más bien es curiosear con el pico o hacer el amago de morder pero al final no muerden fuerte.
I have ocd and i have 3 budgie and i want to get friendly with them like yours plz i need advice i want them to be very friendly with me and play with me plz help me

Romeo speaks very well. He is showered w/attention, treats, fresh water, fresh greens, and food daily.

Romeo has been w/me through it all. (He’s my man, hence the name...)
I’m a loner so he gets all my love.
He has huge patio windows he is near to look out daily.
Not too much Sun, just enough.
He has his own iphone w/a variety of budgie videos daily to enjoy.

If they are practicing they are mostly focussed on getting the treat, less worried about your hands. It can make the process go a bit quicker I guess. You could over time just move the target progressively closer to your hand. Happy at some point would run through my tunneled hand when training a trick, but not get anywhere close otherwise haha. It can help a bit, doesn't make them comfortable around hands yet, but can help to show its really not that scary. Besides, its great fun for them and you.
Hi thank you so much for your vidios I got a rescue budgie and I wasent prepaid at all I got the bird last week already siting and flying to me but I know now a little bit more what to do😊 it was flying at a primary school for round about week and the rescuers dident have space for the little girl she got a little wild and gets spooked a little bit when I walk into my room but she know her safe spot is her cage and if she go's there I won't touch her or disturb her. I hope we find her owner/owner's soon we can see she had good owner's and thay must be worried sick.
Thank you soo much I really appreciate this video 💕

Whenever you put your finger a few millimetres from it, it will obviously nibble at it. True biting is when your bird lunges at you, with its beak open when your hand is a few centimetres away from you
My kid loves your videos. Thank you
Look at that 🐥 so cute
Best video ever!!!
In the next video can you talk about budgie breeding. Because my female budgie has mated with the male budgie and has layed eggs . I don't know what do I do next
🦧
The best bird is the best one I love this way
Very informative
Yeah, it depends on a budgie. The more tamed budgie is, the lesser bites you will get.
It's from my experience.
Lemon bites us only when he is either playful (he bites his dad as his dad is very emotional and Lemon loves his reaction 🤦😭) or he doesn't want to be petted, touched etc.
He's literally a cat 🐈😺🤦😭
My yellow budgie name is lemon to.Always been a biter and hates other birds loves to be rough all the time.bites all tge time and sometimes rips skin a bit.
I love budgie's and cocktail so cute.
I have a budgi and it dose bite me a lot thank you for the info!
My budgies don't bite but use their beak when climbing onto my finger. It doesn't hurt so I don't react.
Please support 🙂
My did too plus biteing
Thanks alot dear
Omg another oneeee yesSSS
Thank you so much I did not even now that. Tomorrow I will get my bird thank you so much 😊
(2:24) I wish my budgies would eat together and not fight over the food like his do lol
hahahahhha
YESSSS
OMG TYSM THIS HELPED MY BIRD TRUST ME AND STOP BITING
NEW SUB ❤
I love buggy
These are great tips to reduce bites, his channel is so underrated 🙁
Awee the make bugie looks cutee
Ive had my budgie for about 2 months and he just started trying to bite my finger last night, nothing out of the ordiabary was just about to take him out of his cage for a while to talk to him but he was having none of it ! any advice would be GREATLY appreciated as i really want to continue bonding with him and further his taming process. :)
Hi :) my bird knows how to step up and doesn't mind being petted. But he is scared to go outside his cage. How do I make him feel safe to be outside his cage?
It's most likely that he is not scared, but he just doesn't want to interact with you as he has a lot of other fun stuff that distracts him.
The best thing to do is to try and tame him in an unfamiliar area.
Finally! Thanks so much i will follow those steps!!!!to stop monty and macaron😅
i never have problems like that i dont fell the pain because its a budgie so it was easy to get talking, playing and being cute
I have a budgie, he’s 8 years old and we think he has a tumour and the vets can’t do anything else to help so he’s sadly not got long left, I can’t be bothered to go through the stages of grieving because it’s awful but that’s the only way I’ll accept that he’s had a nice life
THANK YOU
Thanks the first advice was very helpful 😊
🐒
When I try this i swear I’m gonna be so happy and subscribe to u! Hopefully it works
We've had our budgies for roughly a month. Today our male finally decided to perch on my shoulder, at first it was brief. I shaved my head after all this and now he wants to perch and not leave. I was finally able to get him to transfer to my finger to which he thought would be a good idea to nibble at first then went full on bite mode. My natural response was what I shouldn't have done. Keep in mind this is my first time as a 🐦 owner.
Why dont u have more subs!! I love watching your videos bcs their quality is sooo gooooood
1:07 I like the sound of the bird
super film ."Finally i vid to make my bird to stop biting me." me too.
I think distracting a bite with millet will teach your bird to bite for millet, not a good idea. Mine both think it is a game to bite, a very hard habit to break, but they don’t do it hard enough to actually hurt.
It helps. I distract my lovebird and she didn't learn to bite from that, but she's very sweet, usually distract her when she tries to bite herself (I don't know why she does this, but when she gets overly excited or agitated, or even too much in the zone while getting scritches and something startles her she'd start biting herself). I usually give her something to chew on when she gets like this to channel the aggression, but I've seen something over on bird tricks Channel that help, they train the bird to bite the tip of the stick used for target training, gently so it will not bite hard. But these tips are all good and I've used all of them before
1:23 use protection😎
Very very great video great job
Hiii I haven't watched your vids in a bit since it was a little sad when your other budgie passed
(I wanna stay till but they rlly bite hard my fingers bleed
the first time i got bitten by a budgie was when i was a kid with my grandma i put my fingers in their cage and they tackled it and it hurt alot lol
Birds always bite when they are inside their cages, they don't like when we're invading their territories
Love these videos
Love your videos
Bring one more budgie
My birds are budgie biters. But this video helped me out!
hello nice video
my bird just had 4 eggs what to do
Feed your female with lots of boiled egg
@@itsTiffany12 okye

My lovebird:
Bites my foot my mouth
Thanks bro 🤜🤜 it just work
Hey, really want to keep 3 birds together. I want to keep a Rainbow Budgie, a White-Faced Cockatiel and a Green Cheek Conure. I know that it is possible to keep a Budgie and a Cockatiel together, but I am not sure if I can keep a Green Cheek Conure along with them. My plan is to get the Rainbow Budgie first and then once I stop hand feeding it, I will get the White-Faced Cockatiel and then finally when I stop hand feeding the Cockatiel, I will get the Green Cheek Conure. What do you think? Can I keep them together? Also is this a good plan? Also I subscribed. You deserve more subscribers. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩:)
Excellent 👌
instructions unclear, macaw bit my hand off
WTH
Let me try this 3 ways after some days!!
👍🐦
Great video. Unfortunately, none of these suggestions work for me. My English girl budgie flies over to me, jumps on my hand, viciously bites me, tries to groom my face, biting and drawing blood. She has NEVER been grabbed nor yelled at. She also flies over to my Bourkes parakeets and attacks them by biting at their face and back chest kicking.
She has always been free, not in a cage, comes over to hang out but then starts the biting 😞
But this was very helpful 🙂 👌
I can’t because he won’t let my finger go instead of biting once he can’t stop having his beak on me I just cant
I got my bird from a hatchling and she was use to me. I had some sickness in my family and wasn't able to get her out everyday now shes resenting me and biting me. She use to let me scratch her head and she's stopped that as well. How do I get her use to me again so she'll be the bird I once had?
Aww they are so cute plus they are not going to bite beacuse of these ways☺️☺️
My budgie Azul just started to bite me some and it scared the heck out of me. I still need help to get them to trust me enough where they will step up out on my finger and eat from my hand. The millet spray I have is berry flavored and they just won't except it from me at all. My green budgie Loco is so scared all the time unlike Azul who is pretty calm. I don't what wrong with but I have noticed along his wings that there are these white dots that stick out some should be worried about that?
What is the right food I should give my budgies they don't like food that is a little big and they really preferer four things out of the budgie food. Also what are some good vegetables to give them? What's a good portion size of food for my budgies because it seems like they eat a lot. Also I was able to hold one of my budgies but a couple of hours later he was so scared to let me be near him and know I can't even get him to step up on my finger anymore.
I’ve had a conure for a long time and have bareley been able to take him out of his cage, no matter how hard I try to be calm and quiet around him he just won’t stop biting. I put my finger through the cage and he bites, I open it and try to get him to stand on my finger but he just bites it. I’ve always been so jealous of people who can properly pet their bird and desperately want the same experience with mine because he’s so damn cute, but the biting makes it impossible. I’ve tried lots of ways to stop it but none have worked so hopefully this will.
my cocktaile went through 2 rubber glooves and makea hole in my hand plz show me the quickest way
My female budgie wen I first got her bit really hard ( she was just really scared as after that she stopped wen I took her out the get her computable with me she was only three weeks old and I handled her right away, I have done with all my young 3-4 weeks old ones , if you handle them right away because they are so young it dosent even cross their mind that you are there to harm them and are tame right away, the others never bit only my female just once ) budgies most of the time just bite because they are scared
so basically, my bird bites my fingers, and only is afraid of my fingers, if i use gloves or any thing, he starts playing with it.
he is a fischer lovebird, he bites my other fischer lovebird and attacks my amazon parrot, he is weird in every way, but i still love him and will still try to apply these steps.
Hi!
I've got not long ago a Kakariki. I've had it as baby but the problem is he bites!
Everytime he sees my skin and specially the feet he bites after he kissed it.
I've always use the wordt "NO" and put him in He's cage and ignore him but it's been a few weeks and he's still the same. It's the same when i wanna kiss him sometimes he kiss and sometimes he bites.
I surely don't know what to do :/
My budgies bite is like being pinched by needles lol always manages to find the most painful area to bite as well like the very edges
thx im getting a budgie soon
I brought home a 3month old senegal and she goes on hands no problem but she does those awful slow but strong bites. Maybe because she thinks my fingers are feeders.. any help?
don't like to use gloves.
other two steps failed for me. she just loves to bite me..it was painful in the beginning.. but i love her bites now ❤️
When I got my bird she was a scared,tiny baby and she would let me pet and cuddle her. Now she’s molting and absolutely hates being cuddled :( but this will help. She bit my aunt so hard it’s crazy 😅
I think my bird is afraid of hands? Idk he sees them and he ducks or runs away into his cage he can’t stand hands but will have no problem standing on shoulders or anywhere else as long as it’s not hands and that even calms him sometimes. He’s been that way since we got him and we’ve tried rewarding him for not biting and changing his diet but it seems he just does it to be aggressive but I know he’s probably just traumatized?
Iis it normal for a budgie to basically chew on nothing? I got one yesterday and today he's been making a lot of chewing noises but he hasn't touched his food at all.
My budgies have never bit me even on day one buuuut my Quaker Parrot on the other hand bits the crap out of me. I have tried everything with him but he still acts terrified 😢
I have budgie one year old and it doesn't hurt when he bites but i still ignore it and how can I tame him?Still i haven't been successful in it
Thanks for advice, you see my profile pic that's my bird he always bite me it's really hurts
hi salvador budgie, im worried about something. my budgie's
(3-4 months old) flying speed went down could it possibly be because he's not eating vegetables i try every day though he just does not eat them and sometimes fly away in fear so my question is, is it normal that he is significantly slower? i really need an explanation.thank you
Finally!
What if my budgies breed after all can I tame them
What if my tamed bird is aggressively biting ,the day before I tried taking him from my room (where his cage is 24/7) ti the living room and he immediately freaked out and started getting in top of my neck and biting me so I took him back to my room and this morning when I was changing his water he attacked me. Idk why. I tried giving him a treat and he still attacked my hand. So why is he biting so hard, what did I do wrong?
My budgie isn't biting me but he has been preening my arm alot. It ends up hurting cause it feels like he is nipping my skin and I end up with a rash on my arm. I've tried moving him away but he just comes back. I've also tried to ignore him when he does it but it hurts and I have to move my arm away from him
2:30 lol
How can i give my budgie a proper and perfect growth?
Hi
Mira, los míos me muerden, pero tengo los dedos con tanto cayo y el cerebro ha memorizado el dolor que ya ni lo siento😂😂 tenía una periquita que sí mordía con ganas. Ahora tengo dos machos y lo que hacen más bien es curiosear con el pico o hacer el amago de morder pero al final no muerden fuerte.
What should be into bird's cage ? And is dill and parsley save for our birds ?
Dill and parsley is perfectly safe, but in moderation of course.
@@Bird-Nuggets Thank you!
