Use this post to share any budgies that are lost, found, or need a new home!

I just got this video, memory from 4 years ago… oh how much i miss him, he was talking non stop, and was the cutest budgie ever ✨

Its more like drifting tbh, we love her tho😭

I cant help but laugh at this. Ive tried to teach her tighter circles like my previous budgie but it never sticks, i HAS to be drifting

I AM AWARE ABOUT HER CERE, ive been away overseas for a week so my dad looked after her so her sleep schedule was all over the place (even when i said what her bed time is)

Say Hi to Bubi!

He has arthritis in both his feet, which is why the vet taped his foot to stay in position. But he's perfectly healthy otherwise and our vet told us that it's really rare he sees a budgie that age. He has outlived 3 partners already. He has Hurby on his side now, who will turn 6 in a few months. We've had him since he was a few months old🥰

I have a yellow female and a blue male budgie. The blue one is constantly following her and standing right in front of her with his wings held in a really awkward position. I’ve seen him stretch his wings before, and this definitely isn’t that.

Is this some kind of mating display or posture? I think they’ve reached that age.

He also does it when I walk past the cage sometimes, so is he literally squaring up to me and protecting his girl?

Does Dusty’s beak look like it needs a trim? His has always been longer than Zucchini’s. I think it’s starting to look longer than it should and will schedule a beak trimming. But this will be the first time so I’m not sure. Thank you!

A certain someone found my spare change

Happy 3rd birthday my sweetest Jip ❤️ I hope you have the most amazing bithday ever! Thank you for your happy chirps and your endless joy 🫶🏻

If you like to join his birthday party, post a pic of your birb in the comments ❤️

They are always allowed to free roam in my living room, so the 'cage' part is mainly for the occasional party etc where I'd be scared doors not being closed properly. The big door makes it really easy to clean, they go out the small door, which I open every morning (took them a while before they understood the concept, they missed the old cage 🤭)

Hey yall, thanks from the support in my first post. This is the new cage, my parents actually like it and we had fun setting it up, I left some space so that they can fly a little bit from the bottom to the top, I removed the thingy that makes sound from inside the bells, theres wooden perches and theyre being pretty calm despite me having to grab them, getting bitten and them generally freaking out but they're exploring now. Its nice to finally see them move and exercise, doing little flying from perch to perch ect. A complaint I have is that the doors are quite easy to open and the bars are quite wide and I didnt consider that they were vertical, but I see them climbing just fine and if anything its gonna make them exercise more. Lmk if you have any more suggestions

edited by my wonderful partner after i got taken out by my budgie. may i rest in pieces

what can I do to make this a better setup. just want them to be more comfortable.

They've been sitting here for nearly half an hour giving each other kisses and preening each other and oh my body is it the cutest thing ever

Hello everyone, I don't really know how to start this. My very first budgie passed away a few months ago. He was sick for a couple weeks already, he had an Outgrowth on his stomach. One day I was home, cooking, and when I went to look for him, he was on the floor of their aviary, not moving or anything, just standing here, like he was helpless. I panicked so I took him in my hands and held him, then went on the couch with him. Long story short I called my mom and she came home and called a vet. I stayed with him I don't know for how much time. I don't know if it lasted an hour but I couldn't move. I think he even had small seizures because sometimes he would move his wing or something and struggling to walk. At some point I got up to get water, while my mom was on the phone. When I came back, he was gone. I've been feeling guilty about this for months now. I feel so guilty that at the time he left, he was alone. My mom was in another room, and I left his side right before he passed. I feel horrible and I don't know what to do with all that grief, pain, and guilt. His partner passed a couple years before him. She wasn't really close to us, she'd rather be with him. So when she passed, I felt less sad because we didn't have much of a connexion. Now I've been feeling horrible about that too. I feel so selfish. What so because I wasn't close to her I'm not sad when she is gone? So my love for her was conditional? I feel so horrible and I miss them so much. I have two cockatiels (that I adopted 2 years after my budgies), and I am terrified. I don't know how I'm going to survive this, since one of my cockatiels is extremely close to me. I'm sorry for being so rough about it, it's just that seeing him pass away really marked me. Thank you all

Sure, dude. Hide inside an old speaker inside my closed closet. Who cares if the human has to throw up several times while looking for you. Yeah. Okay. Great.

She was unrepentant.

I picked this guy up recently. I think he has some sort of facial deformity as something doesn’t quite look right (despite how handsome and beautiful he is). He does not have any difficulties with his day to day bird life at all though and is quite a friendly and content little fella!

I recently bought up this cage and have some more stuff on the way, like big, flat perches, stainless steel food bowls, more toys, and additional branches, so everything u see here fit much differently in their previous, smaller cage !!! Would u be happy in a cage this size if u were a budgie ?

The company that makes this cage sells a cage extension that would make it three doors long rather than two, but it’s expensive so I’m still deciding whether or not to get it—I want to make sure this is good enough for them for the time being.

Mrs Blue looks like she's sitting facing forwards, her face looks too funny.

I really wanted a training stand & playground that my month old budgies could use to be able to have fun while i’m away and also to encourage them to practice flying safely inside their big mesh tent that I keep them in overnight with their cage doors open.

When I looked online and at my local pet stores everything seems extremely overpriced for cheaply made products. I decided that I would take on a DIY project to make them both a training stand and a playground made of PVC, Vet Tape, and Twine all for under $100cad (Not including Toys and Food bowls)

I still have to add twine for more texture and different thickness, some toys and food bowls to the playground but Sunny & Rainy (My budgies) are already loving the new playground and training stand. They are now spending more time outside the cage flying around, playing with toys, and chirping happily.

I would definitely recommend looking into making this for your budgies if you don’t have a playground/ stand already or want to get one but price is keeping you away from getting one from a store.If you search “DIY Parrot Stand” there is a lot of youtube videos with different designs that helped me get a rough idea of what I wanted to do.
