Definitely! If a budgie has dull feathers, it may not be getting proper nutrients, but if it has feathers that look like a sickly greenish-brown color, it need WAY more water. it may being poisoned with too much nutrients. DO NOT over-feed these things
But, yes. If your little Budgie buddy has colorful feathers, and seems to not lack energy, he is the picture of health! Have fun with your Budgie!
It means they are stretching the feathers in the tail
The easiest solution - would be to clip its flight feathers. DO NOT attempt this yourself - as one wrong move cold mean your budgie bleeds to death ! Clipping the flight feathers prevents the bird flying any great distance - it will still be able to flutter short distances - but not prolonged flying.
Your budgie's leg band identifies which breeder/breeding club the budgie came from, and the year of its birth.
Budgies can't pull out feathers that they can't reach with their beaks. If a bird is losing feathers on its head or neck, the problem is not plucking (unless a cagemate is responsible for the plucking). Bald spots are not normal for budgies, even elderly ones. You should consult an avian veterinarian.
nothing hehe
No. It means you are feeding your budgie too much.
Tapered feathers are feathers that narrow to a point, or taper.
it could mean a few things. he might just be cold, or he might just be really comfortable and tired (as my bird does before he falls asleep), BUT it could also mean he's very sick. some birds puff up when they are ill.
female or still young
A budgie may have black nails because of the tone of their feet themselves. If a budgie has darker, grey-toned feet, and black nails, it should be fine. However, if a budgie haspink feet and black nails, it could mean the budgie has an infection or a dietary problem. Call a vet if you think there might be something wrong with your budgie.
"feathered serpent" a Quetzal is a colourful, exotic bird... Coatl (also cohuatl, couatl or cuatl) can mean 'serpent' or 'twin' or 'water serpent'. It could also mean that Quetzal is the bird - flying in the air - and Coatl is the snake - living on the ground - thus a representation of spirit and body.
It means your budgie is ill and you need to take your bird to an avian veterinarian.
