    I went to a pet store and it was so sad. There were about 10 budgies sitting in a super small cage. Not tall, the birds couldn’t fly very far without hitting anything. The ground was just covered in seeds and millet was just sitting there on the ground and there was only one dowel perch in the whole thing. It was so sad

      Hell I may have what’s considered as a cage that’s too small for my budgie but I at least leave the door open when I’m home so he can come out and move around. The only time it’s closed is when I’m either not home or at work (the only time I leave outside of work is for groceries and doctors appointments or too do laundry)

Thank you for all the vids and everything you do for your community!!!! I’m a little nervous to buy off Craigslist though because lots of them are unfriendly/abused and that’s why they need to be re-homed...

    I got my two parakeets about 7 months ago, and it was an impulse buy. Even though it was an impulse buy, I love them so much.❤ I loved them so much that I worked hard at caring for them and I have done my research.🐦🐤 My research brought me to your channel and you have helped me soo much to care for my babies❤😊 I would not reccomend impulse buying, but I wouldn't change my decision. I actually just made chop for the first time today and my birdies loved it!!❤💖

They obviously did zero research because when learning about cockatoos THAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU LEARN ABOUT THEM!!!

      That's probably not healthy, if the bird is talking to it's reflection it can be bad for the bird as the bird sees it's reflection as a mate and can get aggressive when you try to take it away from the bird and sexually frustrated as it can't mate with the reflection, you should get rid of it most likely

    i feel like a lot of people think you can just buy a bird, leave them in their cage, and mind your business, but honestly… i imagine they’re about as much work as a dog or cat. i had one cockatiel for 15 years and just got a new one, and even i’m still learning along with my family. we loved our first cockatiel but upon getting our second one we learned even more things we didn’t know!! you just have to care enough to research and know when you can’t properly take care of them and give them to a new home that can.

    I don't know if this is out of the topic but I still hope u see this.
    Ok so four days ago, My dad and little brother wanted to let our Lovebird go out of his cage in their bedroom. And while he was out, my dad and bro let him out in our living room which is ok.
    And then my dad wanted to do a stupid experiment.
    He left our front door of the house opened, to see if our bird will not go out and leave the house.
    At first it was ok, but for a few minutes my dad and bro shouted our lovebirds name for like, five times. I didn't checked it out since I was doing something on my tablet, then my brother said that our bird flew outside on the top of our house roof.
    So like any other people, I grab my mask, ran outside, and tried to find our bird. Two to three minutes later, I found our bird standing on the balcony of our neighbors house. I started to call his name a lot, but because of all the noise outside he got distracted and flew away on a mango tree on the streets. The streets were outside, but since I can't go further away from our house.. I didn't have any choice but to stop chasing him and just watch the mango tree outside to see if he was still there..
    Some of our neighbors tried to help, but.. They didn't find him..
    So i just went in our house, and cried in my bedroom.
    I went outside again, but still found nothing...
    I cried so much, that I started pretending that I moved on. From the outside, I looked happy.
    But in the inside, my heart was breaking..
    When I tried to sleep that time, (when it was night)
    I kept hearing bird noises, which almost drove me crazy. But I did get sleep.
    Two days later, my aunt and her friend got us another bird, but they are pairs. They are lovebirds, and they looked just like our previous bird but different colors and beak.
    Their still scared of us, cuz their still not that bonded with us so we are gonna start all over again.
    But all those couple of months with our first lovebird were the best, and I'll never forget him.
    (If u wanna know his name, his name is Chico)
    I won't give up on him yet tho, since there might be a chance he'll come back..
    Well thx for reading my story.
    Edit: Also PLEASE don't throw hate on my brother and dad, especially dad since he was the one who got the idea.
