    Lol so a while ago i was at the pet store getting my budgie, I had the budgie in the cardboard box. Before i bought it the guy was saying stuff like tips and information etc... He actually said "I recommend watching some budgie youtuber called the parakeet perch" and then he also said "Its just some cool chick that knows alot about budgies" Lol

    I must have watched a dozen of these how to tame your bird videos by now. I have no idea when my Rosie likes to eat ... she seems to eat most of the time although she's behind me when I sit at the computer or TV so not really sure. She seems happy enough and even with my hand or arm in the cage she doesn't 'run away' as much as she used to but it's getting her to step up I find really hard so I must try the feeding millet I think. How many times should you do this for best results or just as often as possible?

And I’m getting a little discouraged from hearing everyone else saying theirs got on their finger in the first 2 weeks. I need some more specific things that I can do to help my bird calm down whenever I come into the room. She is very skiddish when I first sit down and walk around my room but once I sit down she is fine. Do you know how I can help her calm down when I am moving around inside and outside her cage?

    • @ParrotPerch
      @ParrotPerch  5 років тому

      I do have a video on my channel about parakeet biting. One of the most important concepts is to try not to react to a bite. If your bird figures out that biting makes you react or go away, it could become a more pronounced problem. Second of all, you need to assess why the biting is occurring. If your bird is feeling nervous about you being nearby, then going back through a taming routine might be helpful. In any case, it would be good to make your presence something very positive for your bird. Hand-feeding can be very helpful here, as can be individualized attention.

I've only just started putting my hand in his cage for 5 mins every 30 mins
    but my mam thinks I'm going to slow and i should be putting my hand right next to him and getting him to stand on my hand. I want him used to me first and then get him used to other people

    Hello! I have two female budgies that I got about 2 ish weeks ago! One of them, Freya, is very aggressive and whenever I try to take her out of her cage she flys around like crazy and bites my hand very harshly. I think it may have to do with the way the petco employee got her from her enclosure. He caught her in a net and was practically man handling her through the net to see the number on the little identification anklet. I also think he may have hurt her wings because whenever I let her out of the cage to walk around and have time outside the cage, if she flies to get away from me. (Which She always does) when she lands, she holds her wings strangely. It’s a bit away from her body and sort of extended but not a lot, the farthest flight feathers are sort of stretched apart, I don’t know if this is normal or not. I would appreciate if anyone in the comments could shed some light on what to do about her being aggressive and if she is hurt. Thank you!

      @ParrotPerch  5 років тому +1

      I would look for underlying causes, for instance if there have been routine changes for your bird or health changes and make sure nothing within those realms is contributing to the behavior change. If it's truly just a training issue, you may need to start hand taming from the beginning just to establish a routine. I do have a taming video that might be good for you to watch, since it explains things in detail!

    @2007words 5 років тому

    I bought my budgie about two months ago. I've had budgies before but this one is reaaally hard to tame. How long does it take (typically) to tame a budgie. I think it might be harder, as the lady who owned him before had him in a cage with another bird. The other bird bullied him and when I picked him up, he didn't have much wing or tail feathers to speak of. He still seems to be molting some of his longer tail or wing feathers, never really fully growing out his wings or tail feathers.
    When he is really hungry, he will fly to my hand at this point, but he seems to be afraid of flying as he is a poor flyer do to the lack of wing feathers. He does fluff up when I talk to him at times or when I'm just hanging out in the room. He lives in my bedroom with me as I live with roommates, so he is used to seeing me just mind my own business. I try to talk to him while I do stuff and touch his cage. He typically climbs away or jumps away from my hand when I change his food and stuff. He will jump into my hand in the cage, but not let me move him. How do I get him to trust me more? I don't want him to be afraid of me

      Sierra Smith I was thinking the same thing don’t worry. I got mine today but they are very social. But with school and all I won’t have as much time as I need to spend with them. If you get two they will be more close to eachother than their owner, but that doesn’t mean that won’t except you into their flock. It just takes longer than having one.

      NativeChick1 mmm, I got my birds today. But I really don’t recommend it. Cause how are you supposed to get them back into the cage willingly without scaring them by picking them up a way they don’t want. In my opinion, I’m gonna wait till they trust me and know my hand to trust me enough.

    Is it a good idea to take my budgie out of its cage when it’s not tamed
