I bought 3 pairs of budgies in the month of July. In the month of December all the three pairs mated and laid eggs. In one nest box two chicks have hatched. Its wonderful to sit with them and watch the babies. My budgies are very close to me.
My first visit has a really say personality as a baby that evolved into being a jerk. She's a jerk to her male partner too. As far as she's concerned, I am just her food servant. He just does whatever she wants so if she's not cool with me, neither is he.
I’m trying to breed two pairs of budgies, I’m a beginner but I’ve done research and I hope I won’t ruin anything or let any of my budgies down I’m exited and nervous. I hope the budgies will be ok breeding in the aviary. 🤞🏻
I've got a pair of budgies 🐤🐦and I would like them to have babies🐣, but I dont know if they are from the same family or not.. :) EDIT: My female budgie died😔.. and I got another female and they started kissing with the male and I'm sure they're not from the same family.😔😊💋
I'm watching this after my baby bires are stacking up on eachother and have their colors in. I let the mama bird and the dad do their thing because I didn't even know I had baby birds until I heard them chirping 😂
Hey, does anyone know where you can buy those wood pellet things? I have tried putting shredded paper but the girl threw it out when inspecting the nesting box. Also, her cere is a dark brown and I'm not sure if she can breed yet. I have four budgies; Blu, Kiwi, Guapo and Moon. :>
You should find a good female for sunny or mr.snowflake (in your flock mr.snowflake is my favorite his eyes are just beautiful and his style of walking and flying is like a royal budgie🐦🐦🐦🐦)
Since I found out I had a female and a male I have been trying to find as much info as my little brain can find and finally fr about 1-2 weeks now I have been watching my pair and they have been trying to mate so I decided to get them a box today and see what happens :)
@@hollohuman1256 damn mines are preening but i have a plastic nest box i will try wood, hes such a punk and shes so dominant, i hope they eventually mate its been a month
@@maxpainmedia haha females are always so dominant. I think they'll only comfortably nest in something that they think is solid and hard to chew apart. So yea, I'd highly reccomend switching to a wooden box :)
Budgie breeding is a serious thing that no one should rush into or do just for fun. They should have experience in owning birds and have done lots of research. To breed budgies, you are bringing new life into the world, which is a big deal. It is critical to provide the right care for the breeding pairs and the chicks. Just because they are cheap, small, and easily breed does not mean anyone should do it. So many budgies are bred irresponsibly and have health issues or a shortened life span because of it. There are thousands and thousands of budgies who suffer and are overbred, please don't breed budgies just for the sake of it! Make sure you know what you are doing!! ( Not aimed at you, Alen AxP, but anyone who is thinking of or is breeding budgies)
my budgie laid 5 eggs and after a week or 2... she died 😢😢😢 we bought another budgie but she only laid 1 egg i have 3 pairs none of them are mating what to do please help 😥
Alex my budgie has laid 6 eggs. Been almost 35 days eggs are yet to hatch. The bird still looks after the eggs.plz suggest some thing that might work. I know the eggs will not hatch ..what do i do now?
My female pulled the feathers of her chicks so I fostered them to other hen, she feeded them as her own chicks and guess what they are 2 years old now.
Can we breed budgies in our balcony in the month of August (when it is a little hot), where we go once in two days to take and hang wet clothes, will it be a disturbance for them?I'm talking about wild budgies.
@@ridewithlucy6273 Maybe when you see your budgie eggs are hatched and the babies are like 1-2 months old or if the mother budgie looks sick. TBH I'm not a budgie expert
Not until the last chick leaves the nest on it's own. And then remove the nest box that very *SAME* instant the last chick comes out of it.... so that the parent birds don't immediately begin to start mating again to get their NEXT clutch of eggs/chicks started in that box again!! On rare occasions, though... younger parent birds in their mating/brooding prime ages and eager af (between 1 to 2 yrs old) will sometimes not even wait to start beginning their next clutch until the last current chick or two has left the nest box on their own (the *last* 1-3 chicks that hatched).... after the first few chicks finally get big enough start leaving it (the *first* few chicks that hatched about a full week or more before the others did). So they will either just abandon (stop feeding & taking care of) or flat out *KILL* the last smallest current chick or two before they can leave the nest box on their own.... just so that they CAN immediately get started on making their next clutch of eggs/chicks. When/If this *does* ever happen.... it's best to either just remove the nest box from the parent birds right away from the cage completely OR remove the remaining chick(s) from the nest box & that cage to separate them from the parent birds in to a different cage or container altogether and then start hand-feeding them regularly until they get big enough to finally start eating on their own. Because if you *don't* ..... that baby chick(s) will die a very slow and painful death. Either from simple starvation or all the nasty & fatal injuries that it *WILL* end up getting all over it's little eyes, head and body from all the attacks by it's own parent's very SHARP beaks trying to pluck out what feathers it's managed to grow so far.... just to get rid of it.
You should *NOT* EVER let female budgies over 3 yrs old be breeding/mating! Why??--- Because *BEFORE* at least one full year old and *AFTER* 3 yrs old..... female budgies are at the *highest* risk of getting Egg Bound and *DIEING* if they *DO* try to lay any eggs before/after those specific ages. It's because of their inability to digest & process Calcium and Protein properly and the most effectively before and after those ages in their lives....... which they definitely *NEED* in order to produce the healthiest eggs & chicks. Calcium deficiency is the most major concern. Without proper Calcium intake and retention....... your female bird runs at *VERY* high risk for producing eggs with either way too soft a shell or abnormal shell formation and shape. BOTH of which will cause her to become Egg Bound and most likely die either while trying to push that egg out OR the shell just simply breaking while it's still inside her as she tries to push it out. Which will literally cause her to start rotting/decaying from the inside out bc of all the remaining shell/yolk still stuck inside her- which results in a very long and painful death for that bird. It's always best to RETIRE a female bird after she reaches 3 yrs old from any more egg laying and simply just select a younger bird of proper age (at least 1 yrs old) that's much better suited for brooding as your new Brood Hen and then get HER a new mate to Bond with, if you intend on letting your birds produce any more babies.
Hi, I had a question, how do you stop the budgies from breeding again? Because my 2 budgies already have baby budgies in the nest, and I have seen them going to mate but I separated them a lot of times. They just keep on breeding so many times is there any suggestion pls! I really need it!!
Hello, great info! I need help with my birdos. My ready female keeps trying to grab the males attention but when she does she’s a bit rough since she gets so excited. My male budgie likes a baby female!! He keeps trying to mate with her but I’m scared since she is just about 6 months old? I mean, the ready female always checks out her nest and plays and all that but she has a lot of temper tantrums because she just wants his love. My baby female preens my male and they love each other really, do u have any info of how I can stop my male trying to mate with a baby? I also don’t wanna separate them because I don’t want my male to be sad. Any information will be useful!

B r o I thought that the bird’s name was Sarah but you were talking about the cere!! I thought it was pronounced “Seer” (C-er) and that threw me offfff!!
Is it true that budgies won't breed if they don't have a nest box? I'd like to get two birds so that they don't get lonely. Do I need to restrict my search to same sex pairs to prevent them from multiplying out of control?
Hi more conures are going to have hatching eggs soon, just wondering this being their first ever eggs in their life, is it ok for me to still take them all to handfeed, or can I leave half and take the other half to hand feed?
You shouldn't ever be * "taking" * ANY of their chicks to hand feed...EVER! Not only is it completely and entirely UNNECESSARY...... it's just plain *STUPID* . The *ONLY* time it is ever even necessary or needed to hand feed or *take* a chick away from it's *PARENT BIRDS* to feed it.... is only *IF* it ever becomes obviously clear that they are struggling to manage, or for whatever reason just simply *CAN'T* , feed all of their babies on their OWN. Only *IF* that were to ever happen is hand feeding *ever* even needed or necessary to try to do...... and not at *ANY* other time!! It's always best and healthiest for the *BABY BIRDS* for their own parents to *always* be feeding them as much as possible.... even until about 2 weeks or so *after* they leave their nest box on their own and then only *when & if* they need their help feeding even then... before they finally learn to fully feed *themselves* . Human interference to hand feed baby birds at *ANY* other time or for *ANY* other reason than the parent birds *NOT* being able to do it on their own....... is only done solely for the selfish, egotistical and *ignorant af* needs of the *PERSON* that thinks their "help" is even needed.... much less even necessary. You can still "hand tame" or "socialize" baby birds while they are still very small....... either by getting them use to human hands/fingers petting and holding them while they are still inside the nest box or AFTER they first come out of the nest box on their own. You *never* need to do it by ever *TAKING* them from their parents just to get to hand feed them. And anybody that does so is just simply a complete and total *IDIOT* that doesn't have a flippin clue wtf they are even doing.... much less has *ANY* business whatsoever trying to breed and raise baby birds!!

and then start hand-feeding them regularly until they get big enough to finally start eating on their own.
Because if you *don't* .....
that baby chick(s) will die a very slow and painful death.
Either from simple starvation

all the nasty & fatal injuries that it *WILL* end up getting all over it's little eyes, head and body

just to get rid of it.
I was at Petco, they had Parakeet's and Fancy Parakeets. IS there a difference? I did notice the Fancys had like blue and yellow so maybe it was that
What is the maximum age requirement for budgies to breed, mine are about 2-3 years old
Yea
You should *NOT* EVER let female budgies over 3 yrs old be
breeding/mating!
Why??---
Because *BEFORE* at least one full year old
and
*AFTER* 3 yrs old.....
female budgies are at the *highest* risk of getting
Egg Bound and *DIEING*
if they *DO* try to lay any eggs before/after those specific ages.
It's because of their inability to
digest & process
Calcium and Protein properly and the most effectively before and after those ages in their lives.......
which they definitely *NEED* in order to produce the healthiest
eggs & chicks.
Calcium deficiency is the most major concern.
Without proper Calcium intake and retention.......
your female bird runs at *VERY* high risk for producing eggs with either way too soft a shell
or
abnormal shell formation and shape.
BOTH of which will cause her to become Egg Bound and most likely die either
while trying to push that egg out
OR
the shell just simply breaking while it's still inside her as she tries to push it out.
Which will literally cause her to start rotting/decaying from the inside out bc of all the remaining shell/yolk still stuck inside her-
which results in a very long and painful death for that bird.
It's always best to RETIRE a female bird after she reaches 3 yrs old from any more egg laying
and simply just select a younger bird of proper age (at least 1 yrs old)
that's much better suited for brooding as your new
Brood Hen
and then get HER a new mate to Bond with,
if you intend on letting your birds produce any more babies.
If your budgies are untamed and they breed can you still check the eggs? I'm wondering cuz we got them a bird nest and I'm scared to check.

But I can't get them to breed. I put a nesting box in but neither are interested. Anyone have any ideas?
Budgie master-
My budgie can clip my nails with its beak.
