YOU CANT imagine how much it hurts when he bites me sometimes I even see blood in my hand bro I will just keep letting him biting me until I have bloody hands?? Seriously
maybe try wearing gloves if they're purposefully lunging and drawing blood(i don't fully support the shaking method, as it could make them believe you are an unsteady perch), and see if there's anything in the house like certain sounds and things like that that might be irritating your bird and do your best to eliminate them. if they're still new, don't try to touch them yet.
keep your hand in the cage but not near the budgie, and move slower than what you think is "slow enough". look out for signs of fear like "tssk" noises, flying around the cage when you put your hand in, neck stretching, tensed feathers, slightly open wings, and don't look directly at your budgie or they'll get scared and think you're a predator. try to look through the budgie's eyes. try to see what they're seeing and think what they're thinking. a common cause for biting in pets is fear and stress. put your hand on the far side of their cage for around ten minutes and talk gently every so often. only slowly move your hand closer when they aren't showing signs of fear. keep on moving your hand closer each time while making sure your budgie isn't stressed or scared while doing so. if he is, don't push him, move back a bit. once your budgie is comfortable enough with your hand, try feeding him some millet with your hand as far away as possible. it should look enough like seeds or pellets for him to realize that it's food, and hopefully he should start eating it.
slowly move your hand further up the stalk over time, and when he's comfortable enough, try getting him to step up. try to get him to step onto your finger by putting one finger in between him and the millet stalk after giving him a little bit. make sure that it's barely within his reach, so that you can gently push his belly with your finger to encourage him to step up onto it. another method, if your bird is comfortable enough, is to hold millet in your hand, either hold it away from him or allow him to eat it, and very carefully push your finger beneath your budgie to get them to cave in (metaphorically) and step onto your finger. i absolutely do not recommend this is your bird is tense and unwilling to do this. is your budgie isn't allowing you to slide you finger beneath them easily, don't do this. you could also try to do both of those but with a stick instead of your finger, especially if he's still biting. research more about positive reinforcement and budgie body language, and keep a cool attitude when dealing with your budgie. do not get mad at them.
i have a pretty successfully tamed budgie who i had to start from scratch with and a previously hand-tamed cockatiel who would leave me with bloody hands any time i went near him before i put on gloved and showed him i wasn't a threat. low pain tolerance is a bummer when you have an aggressive or scared bird. this is all based off of my personal experiences and decisions. by the way, i wouldn't absolutely recommend this, but getting a hand-tamed bird alongside your first bird can help significantly(emphasis on can). it especially did in my case. however, it can be tough having more than one bird, and if you get another budgie they might just try to bond with them instead of you. hand-tamed birds will not always be super friendly, especially when you first get them. i learned that the hard way, and there might be a chance that the birds will not get along and you could get stuck with two angry birds. spend as much time with your bird as you can, give them stimulation if you're ever away, and do not try to rush your bird. constantly be noticing things about your bird and always make sure to look up his behaviors to ensure his safety and your bond(i abuse this as a very paranoid and affection-hungry parent). sorry for this being really long. when it comes to birds, i can go on for. hours.
Bro ya same
Furry.exe Whoa. Lots of thanks. My budgie is doing a little better.
@Omer Bulbul from my experience, it hurts a lot more after you trim the beak
@Omer Bulbul how will i catch it tho he boutht so hard one time he bought threw glove
Whenever my bird flys on my shoulder I get really anxious because he loves to nibble on everything and whenever he gets to my skin he bites hard because it’s squishy I guess so he’s really interested. And I want him to come onto my shoulder but I don’t wanna be scared every time he does
SAME!
Nibble on your ear?
@@jessicamaneja8747 Yeah, my neck, my ear, my shoulder and my shirt
It’s not safe for your eyes and ears
SAME
It seems like my budgie bites me for fun and is always happy when she does
Me too! One bites me soft then gets harder every second but the other tickles me
if its like a soft tickle its for fun and it likes you.
if its hard and is meant to hurt you it’s uncomfortable and doesn’t trust you
@@powerflame he trusts me tho. It just becomes a hobby because when he was young I will put seeds in my finger when he bites hard. Now he still do it when he doesnt have enough seeds
@@ralfyralf19 yos
@@powerflame I just bought a budgie but it seems scared of me but only softly nibbled my finger?
I never intentionally yell at my budgies but I can't help shouting 'ouch!' and pulling my hand away if one suddenly clamps down on my finger hard enough to draw blood
same i fele bad flinching bc it pulls him too but i can’t stop
Is that female budgie making poop mountain 0:23
LOL
hahahaha yupp, I will talk about that specific clip in a later video , about egg laying and how to prevent that :) but yea she's tidy with her poop haha
@@BudgieWorld "budgie poops rarely but poop is getting bigger! I already heard that
@@dennythebudgie by rarely you mean every 15 to 20 minutes :D ? it gets bigger when the hen is laying eggs.
XD
I have an albino budgie that bites me when i feed her because she thinks my hand is food
Yeah me too
The UA-cam wolf try wearing gloves...
I meant lutino
Me too
Does it hurt when they bite?
OK, what I need to reinforce here is my bird IS NOT biting. She is preening me. She goes right for any scab I might have. As well as nibbling me on my nose and then going down to my lips..don't let your bird try to feed from your lips. They may bite down hard thinking that you are going to regurgitate food to them (also human saliva is not good for birds). If your bird cannot seem to stop biting at your skin tags, scabs..etc. then wear a long sleeve shirt and scarf.. and do not let them come close to your lips.
.Yes they will eventually stop trying to help you (which is what they are doing) and just be happy that you are there. lol
make sure your lips are dry and do NOT have chapstick if they come near your lips because sometimes they like to kiss you and it could be anywhere so be careful
I don’t know about you guys but I find it really hard to tell if he’s either aggressive, being playful, or if he’s trying to preen me because it doesn’t hurt that much, only leaving little red marks, yet he does it like he doesn’t like my hand. He also tugs at my skin. Butttt...every time I put my hand outside their cage, he gets very excited to see me and nibbles at my finger that is outside the cage. He’s use to my hand being inside the cage and loves it when I feed them their treats. I have another budgie in there as well but he doesn’t really care about me and seems distant (he also loves the treats lol). I will give this a try and hopefully my budgie (Zazu) stops biting/nibbling at me.
HOW CAN I NOT REACT WHEN IM STARTING TO BLEED
JisooTurtleRabbitKim but then they are gonna be afraid of me
Me 2 😫
JisooTurtleRabbitKim im not gonna sell mines.... i love them so much

Do u have a mirror in the cage
Same after i got him a wife lol
He seem like he hate me now and enjoy biting me
This is VERY helpful. My grandmothers budgie bites all the time due to excitement, i will try it out today. Thanks 😊💜💜
When you shake your hand, it seems your budgie actually thinks you are playing with it.
omg i just did that- HE WAS ENJOYING IT TOO
aha... thats not possible. OK IT IS I JUST TRIED IT.
It seems like my budgie goes in attack mode with my thumb . It hurts . My index finger is next . And when I do pull away during a flinch she switches attack mode to play mode almost instantly. Ugggh . Me and her bonds well when I play saxophone 🎷 music from different sites. She goes into dancing mode and waits for me to dance in my wheelchair ♿ with her . 🎶
Pretty hard to not react to it when he literally goes out of his way to make sure his beak is latched on to my skin with full force with no intention of letting go unless I jerk my hand back. My bird use to be sweet I use to be his favorite and now hes just an asshole.
I'm doing a lot for research on proper parakeet care and I need to know one thing I cant get a straight answer on do I need to get like one of those nest boxs I want my parakeet to have the cage set up completely before I get one if u could answer my question I would appreciate it :)
you could be doing something wrong with your bird. try looking at the birdtricks channel and see what you can learn from some of their playlists, i found them very helpful and their methods work with smaller birds as well. also, if your bird is latching onto you, try wearing gardening gloves so that it doesnt hurt so much.
@@ashlynnquesnell2129 I am planning on getting a budgie soon as well, I have heard that nesting boxes ( if it is a single bird) can make them territorial because it is simulating nesting and breeding. your bird might be less willing to interact with you if it thinks that it is time to breed. Mirrors can have the same effect because it could distort the birds reality, making it think that there is another bird there. nesting boxes are not necessary in my opinion unless you are trying to breed. Birds sleep perched if you were wondering about your bird sleeping and if a box is necessary for that.
@@isabellalaeger7109 ok tysm!!! I appreciate you taking the time to inform me!!!!😊
@@ashlynnquesnell2129 your welcome! glad I could help!
I do have a bird who loves me but hates me at the same time, until when I searched up what to do about that, I already wanted to help me and my bird's bond together. This video was very very helpful!
My budgie is tamed but she always bite me when she is in cage but she not bite me out of cage
It means your cage is small and u keep ur budgie most of its time in cage
Yeah same
Look I know but she gets everything she has a very big cage and she still bites
Same
Same!!
that was really helpful brother thanks.
My parakeet and I were watching this and your intro music scared the poo out of him and he took off! Hahaha.
:(( poor little thing
I have had my buddies for a while, the male doesn’t always bite but when he does it doesn’t hurt but the female bites REALLY HARD and I have been wondering how to stop all the videos I watch are how to stop them from biting but they always say how to stop it when you first get your budgie. I have been really upset because I love my female and male budgie and I don’t know what to do, I hate it because when I try to get them out of the cage they bite , whent I try to pick them up to put them in the cage they bite me when I try hand feeding them they bite me, it is really upsetting for me
Ouch i only got bit 1 time by my budgie and thats when i never touched him again. Sure i go around an look at him like some wierd guy but touching my budgie has entered my book of nightmares. After the bite thing i didnt want to touch him. This was helpful. Thanks, now my budgie is not biting me
Great advice. Love your videos. I totally agree with all of it. You should have a million subscribers. ❤🐦🙏😊
wow thank you very much for the compliment and support, it means a lot to me and for people like you I get motivated to make more and more videos.
My budgie have been here for a 1 week but I’m going to keep watching your videos
My baby was super gentle. All of a sudden started biting. Could it be cuz she's molting?
The only times my budgie ever bite me was when he was preening and I wouldn't mind that at all. I just ignored it and it stopped biting within like a month. To be honest it didn't really hurt anyways so who cares and he is a really good birb who never misbehaves and always listens to all of my commands
Thank you, that was very helpful.
Honestly this was a great video I learned a few things I can’t wait to try out tomorrow.
This was super helpful thank you
Im ttying to train my brother's and my budgie but his has been biting scince he got stuck in a fly trap (he let hemself out before we could bird prof the house ) but im trying to train my bird and he bites her what should i do?
My budgie always comes and sits on my hand....
And bites for the next hour 😂
Superb sir
My budgie be like when they bite:
"Food 🥕👄🥕"
"Toy 🌟👄🌟"
"PUT MEH DOWN!"
"BRING ME UP!!"
"DONT TOUCH ME!!!"
"!!IM TIRED!!"
My budgie bites me when I use my phone and it hurts it fly’s and then Goes on my phone and dose for no reason sorry for bad spelling and grammer.
After TWO years my budgies still don't trust me and just my green one has a bit of trust in me
I've had my budgie for almost 5 years and she only started to like me in about April. Never give up! Don't be discouraged...every bird can learn to love if you try hard enough!
@@amorton1283 thank you!! Now the both are pretty attached to me xd
Mine dont bite me because they hate me. They all are super tame and nice. They kinda nibble my hand to play with it, but one of them dont understand playfulness so she just full on bites me for fun xD
Are you sure the last part will work? What if they think it's playing or they think you're an unsteady perch?
What if they just don’t come onto my hand and bite? My male budgie won’t come onto my hand, and I’ve been extremely patient and tried to get him to be calm, but I’m not really sure what to do.
Use millet and look at some other videos for more information
Maisie that is exactly what my budgie does!
Put some millet near the side of the cage, when he goes for it slowly move it away with your thumb under his belly
When i try to get my budgie(ash) he always bites me..I think its for him to protect himself..
0:26 MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASIBUENYAAAAAAAAAAA
One of my budgies I can put my face towards him and he softly nibbles it like a kiss and I can tell he’s playing because he likes to chase my face or what he’s nibbling on it’s adorable
THANK YOU,my female budgie bites me hard and it rlly hurt :)
Thank you very much. 😊
I do have a question I wondered about for a while now, I do have a male and female budgies, and a lovebird as well too, so my male budgie ( before I bring a lovebird to the group) was sometimes step up my female budgie, or put his foot on her tail, and she does sometimes dislike that kind of behavior, and other time she would be like its a loose cause and leave him to step on her.
by the time I brought the lovebird to the flock, he starts doing that to him as well, the lovebird is much bigger than both two budgies so he sometimes goes above it.
they're both 5 months old and my lovebird is still a chick, so I don't think it is mating behavior, and I don't think it is an aggressive one. I am really afraid sometimes when I am not looking he will be doing it again then something terrible will happen, does anyone knows what this is? I tried reading many possible articles about aggressive budgie's and mating behavior, and nothing has brought anything about that, that if we didn't put in mating behavior, but this kind of behavior needs at least 7 to 8 months budgies so its hormones will be revolved. sorry to bring this up but I just can't find anyone who can help me with this, does anyone know anything about that which could help?
I thought they bite just for the heck of it. 🙂
I was taming my bird it was very fun until my little sister bothered him alott then he started biting I wanted to know how to make him stop.
U shouldn't let your little sister touch your parrot if it's not fully traded or isn't used to small children, I'm guessing your sister is around the age of 8 to 12 witch she might not understand that u have to be very careful with smaller animals I'm sorry if I'm being rude I just think this might be what's going on idk tho
Try keeping your sister away from your bird and just keep at it training wise while also keeping your movements slow to not scare him.
I already gave up tbh
@@continuo_s6552 noo u shouldnt give up tell you sister to not bother the bird, keep the bird away from your sister but don't give up on it please. I have a sister too, but she's a bit scared of the budgie we have so she doesn't do much. I am also trying to tame my budgie and id say its going fairly well, except for the biting though she doesnt ever draw blood. Please still dont give up just start again and slowly try to regain your bird's trust
@@ashlynnquesnell2129 wdym im 12 i dont bother my budgie in fact im fairly good friends with it
Thanks
So I have two budgies and when they start fighting I put one up so my other bird so he does not get picked on and when I put the other one up he bites me
I just got a female budgie about two or three weeks ago she is going through molting and I try my best pet her so she doesn’t scratch too too much but I don’t know if she’s playfully biting me or biting me because she doesn’t want me to touch her but she lets me do it sometimes like when she’s feeding and she lets me Feed her feed with my hands but when she bites me it doesn’t hurt it kind of tickles so I don’t know if I should stop or if she just playfully biting
My budgie likes me. She eats food and perches on my hand and walks around. I'd guess she is pretty comfortable with me (even though its been barely two weeks since i got her and she was not hand tamed). But, while eating from my hand, she bites the tip of my fingers. I don't know if its aggressively, but she hasn't drawn blood (yet) but its probably playfully, since she does stand on my hand a lot. But its worse when she stands on my hand AND bites me, cuz then I can't pull my hand out of the cage without bringing her out with it. Honestly I sometimes think she wants to eat my finger with all the blood and bone and meat.
A reason could be that her beak is rather sharp. I dont know how or where to get it trimmed and all, but i have had an idea on how to help my cause (maybe not eliminate the biting, but at least wear down her beak hopefully):
I gave her a paper boxe first, and trust me what she did looked scary. The holes and tears were pretty big, i didn't actually think she could rip stuff like that badly. After that, i held up a short but thick piece of wood and she started biting it. She actually managed to slightly damage the edges of it, and the wood is what ill keep using for some time now. Also, when im feeding her, I'll pull my hand away if she bites. Obviously, this would be harder if she's on my hand, i guess ill just move it gently (i dont think shaking it is a good idea) and closer to the perch. This usually works.
Since today is only the first day of my " No Biting The Hand That Feeds You" campaign, i dont know if it works yet, though i hope it does.
Can you help me? I can’t tell what my budgie is doing but I’ve had him for about three months now and we’re still working on hand taming, he’s not really afraid of my hand anymore and now whenever I stick my hand in the cage he nibbles on it but then he does it a bit harder and it kinda hurts. My other budgie (I got them both at the same time and they live in a cage together) nibbles on my hand but gently. I’ve read online he’s either preening me, or still trying to get use to my hand. Is he trying to intentionally hurt me?
when your budgie is hurting you, yet not afraid of you it means he/she doesn't know that hurts you and needs to learn that this behavior is not good. you can follow the video to teach your bird not to bite and that this is a bad behavior
Budgie World thank you!
I have had budgies for a lot of years, Your a good bird owner but this cage is very small for a lot of budgies unless you take the budgies out a lot, you should seperate your budgies and get more cages and let them out at least 2 hours a day btw Looking at the perch in your budgies cage it has a bit of bird poop which could cause fungus, make the birds get sick and with no care they could die! I’m only telling you this because I had a budgie that died last year because of this! I don’t want anyone to go through that...
Great video, thanks. My runner budgie bites, would try the off balance, but she is often not on me but in her cage when it happens!
Mine throws a paddie when I try to encourage him back into his.cage, I've made sure its plenty big enough for him to flap around in, an he hand feeds an let's me stroke him alot, I only pick him up as a last resort if he doesnt go in for the 5th time, I talk gently am try to encourage him onto my hand by putting it next to the cage with seed on an stayin still an most.times he hopes on no trouble but tonight he just didn't want to kept half on then hopping off an nibbling. It dont hurt me, hes very gentle. Only had him a week.
So many parakeet in cage they so pretty
My baby budgie bites my but not hard but im scared that it doesnt like me it tries to climb my fingers so i allow it but i think cause it fell it bit me?
I once fed my budgies (I have one male and 1 female) water, with my finger, and now they think there is water on my hands so they try to bite me, even though my hand is dry... My male kind of nibbles my hand but he gets aggravated because he can't taste any water. My female has a very sharp beak and when she bites me, skin starts peeling off...
I know this is an old thread but I’m at a loss.
My budgie was so sweet and loving and on the last two weeks it will not let me put it back in the cage.
He (thinking now may possibly be a she by it’s still only 7-8months old)
Only bites when I try to get him back into his cage or off my head or shoulders. It was never and issue and almost over night he’s changed. I’m scared to take him out now because he bites be so incredibly hard but I don’t want to not let him out.
What do I do to stop them biting if they aren’t already on my hand?
I’m getting one this week or next week and I want to know everything about them before I get one! 🙂
Ok so a friend gifted me their budgie cuz they had a small house but on their house,he didn't bite me. He just bites maybe he needs to get habituated to my house? Its been 5 months tho..
I have one of those whites one and she doesn't like anyone so she bits and idk what to do..
Mine just bites and squarks whenever I put the blanket over his cage at night and sometimes when anyone comes in. We have a household with a lot of ppl so idk if I should keep him upstairs alone or downstairs and everything be loud. Please help.
maybe put him at a place where less people are walking. if he stands right next to a door move him to the wall. in the middle of the room isnt very good either
My buggies bites don't hurt but he's not playing he only does it when i even try to get him to step up he my girl doesn't bite at all if she doesn't like what I'm doing she walks or Flys away
I've had a budgie now for 2 weeks and trying to get him tamed. He has gone on my hands about 3 times so far but every time he does he starts biting the tips of my fingers. I'm not sure if it's playful, aggression, testing the boundaries, or just for defence. He does hurt but hasn't drawn blood yet, I stay as still as I can but I'm worried if he bites any harder I'm going to have more of a natural reaction to fling my hand out or something (not on purpose, just instant reaction) so I will try the hand shaking to make him stop and see how it goes, thanks!
My Female budgie of 4 months keeps biting me every time my hand is in her cage and outside once i had fake nails on and i let her bite them since I didn’t feel any pain and i do kinda chase my budgie around my room so that could be one reason
My budgie used to playfully bite me which didn’t hurt but now she’s proper biting down on my hand/face/legs. I never really taught her how to stop so is there any other options or maybe she needs a friend or should i give her up for adoption?
Your videos are so good
Thank you!
And is it weird that I’m scared of them flying even when we clip their wings
They can only fly small distances
Thanks for the tip, mine jumps on my hand, seems really playful so I think this will help.... But do you have any tips on him biting the back of my neck? Haha its hard not to react when he gets me there
My budgie only started getting on my hand yesterday, it keeps biting my fingers when it want to step on my hand it bites me before putting its legs on my hand I don't know if it assumes that I'm going to feed it or if my hand is food?
When my budgie was young i had a chance to pet him on the head but now when i try to pet, he bites me.
Idk why, any help?
just show your budgie that is bad as I showed you in the video
Budgie World thanks for the advice!!
T
My parakeet bites when she is playful but sometimes she bites a little harder than normal when she gets too excited. Another thing my birdies cage is very clean. No droppings or food debris. Maybe I’m a clean freak.
I handfeed both my budgies with a slice of apple every day and my male budgie looks like he's getting curious and nibbles on my finger while I hold the apple. After a while, his biting hurts really bad, my thumb isn't bleeding yet, but it got red and has some small holes in it. My female budgie is often a little nervous when I offer her some apple bites, but she never bites my hand (yet). Now I'm scared, that she will imitate my male budgie's behavior and soon begins biting, too. I'll definitely try your trick in the next day and see, if it will work!
(Note: I got my budgies almost two months ago, so they're still not completely hand tamed, but my male budgie started to step on my finger a few days ago. Then, well, the biting began. I'm not sure, if I'm doing something wrong. I'm always trying to be calm, I'm not chasing them around and I don't really disturb their sleep or playtime. His biting doesn't really seem aggressive, but more confused or curious. Their cage is placed in my bedroom on the table in front of my bed. Is this maybe wrong? Should I place them somewhere else? I would appreciate some advice!)
first off, yea budgies might try to imitate and she could definitely learn bad habits from him. so yea try to fix the problem with him.
as long as the cage has one side to a wall it's fine (just to make then feel more comfy and safe)
@@BudgieWorld Yep, behind their cage is a wall and beside them is a closet.
Thank you for your answer!
I think my budgie is biting because its sad because his partner died sadly of old age she died 3 days ago so not that long he always been with her but we are thinking of getting another one to keep him company
Your profile is awesome👌👌👌👏👏👏
I was given an older budgie that bites. Can he still be trained to stop biting?
God bless everyone❤️❤️
I put my hand. Outside the cage next to him and he snaps is he playing or scared or aggressive
Brother I have been also going through the same situation. I recently have bought a new female budgie from pet store and she bites me whenever I put my finger near to her
SOMEONE HELP. my budgie bites for no reason after the death of my other one. it really hurts and idk what to do.
Actually, my bird only bites when I am chewing gum. Does peppermint cause excitement? Any other food I eat she lands on my plate.
I've been trying this technique but my budgie clings to my hand like he's riding a bull in a rodeo.
She just likes to bite and trying to eat me. It fucking hurts, but she is so cute. 😩💕
you are the best for me
I had a couple budgies who would chomp my finger when they were babies and would climb on my hand. I noticed they bit the twig I would hold out for them as well, and it seemed they were doing it to make sure the twig wasn't a snake. I figured the same with my finger. I wouldn't say anything, just hold very still. They stopped within a couple weeks.
I was feeding my budgie millet then I sticked out my finger to pet it then it tried biting me... Are they playing or rlly Tryna hurt me?...
Same i was petting my bird and she bit me I called her a dick hole and she is mad at me now
:O don't ever call ur budgie something mean cause it hurts there feelings and I they understand and never forget what u say... That was a bad choice u shouldent of did that... U might lose ur trust from ur bird....
My male budgie is so aggressive💀, he bites everything he sees, the tv, my phone, paper, your ears💀😭, and fingers, but on the other hand my female budgie, she is so cold and distant, always looking tired, somebody help💀😭
My budgie bites SO HARD!! OMG
Omg mines too
My brother was getting a bird and he got two named ari the blue parakeet and valentine the green parakeet I was wondering if when the female is laying eggs can he play with the boy
if he's tamed sure, but not for a long periods, in case the male wants to feed the female while she's sitting on her eggs
My budgie is too naughty how to calm them but can you tell you explained it Soo nicely all bugdies loves you.
What about a budgie that preens you? And by that I mean nipping at skin tags or any bump on the skin. I understand that this is preening behavior but when it hurts what do you do? I don't want to scare him and I have said "no" and put him off but he keeps coming back. What do I do?
the last 2 minute of the video is training my budgie to stop biting, you can do the same :)
So I just found out how to get a bird trust you so first I got a gloves and he got used to gloves and every time I get the gloves he would fly to me and then after days he got used to me hand without the gloves now he always flies to fingers
I have 3 budgies and when I tried to hold one of them he bit me so hard I was trying so hard not to panick and stay calm I probably shouldn’t have tried holding him in the first place
WHAT? YOU SHOULD NEVER HOLD A BUDGIE! it gets so scared and never trust you! You should never hold it! Just train it to get to your hand like I did to mine :D
My two bite whenever they hop on my finger and I take them out of the cage they bite and then fly out and it's hard getting them back in and when I uncover them their first thought is to bite my hands
Oh I made a mastake I chase my parakeets to get them back in there cage can you tell us a safer way to do this? I have 2 parakeets and when I put my hand in the cage they fly everywhere but they let me pet them and they get on my hand for 5minutes thank you this is helpful. My parakeet dose the same butting but I’m doing the right thing I just let them.
Id say just move their cage closer to them, get them to go in themselves. Or you could bribe them with food (i tried it once but didnt work but its worth a try still) or let them figure out a way back to their cage on their own
I have a tamed budgie but recently everytime I put my hand in the cage to take him out he bites me so hard and he doesn't look so happy when he bites, what can I do?
What if a male is atracking and biting a female. He trys to keeo her from the food and even she looks at him sometimes hes bites. They got along so good at first.m and always preened and fed each other. Im not 100% the girl is actually a girl as she is an all white with 1 tiny pale blue feather under one of her wings. Shes not an albino though bc she has black eyes. Her cere is very pale blue with mire white around the nostrils. I also notice the make is starting to peck and bite at ne as well. I habe had them for 2 month. They came from a petstore. The male will step up on ny arm and eat millet but i notixed the last two times he starting to peck my fingers when in holding it. This behaviour juat started about a week ago. Other times hes fine. Im trying to transition them to a bigger cage that finally just came. Im hoping that might help and give more room for them to not always be so close to one another. Any tips or advice. Couls tymhey both be males maybe. Indo notice the "female" will sometimes fight back and stand uo real tall and defend herself but she dont usually start anything. Sometime but i think shes just tired of hin being mean to her.
