If the hen has been disturbed too many time when the babies are young, she may not go back into the box, and may abandon them. The female can be disturbed by humans looking at the babies too often, or by other budgies entering the nest box. Jealous females sometimes kill another bird's babies.
Not at all. The female will get quite territorial if she is nesting, and if she doesn't want the male anywhere near the egg and the nesting box, she will let him know well enough.
well when you would buy your pet budgie you would ask the pet shop keeper he/she should tell u all the details of ur budgie and should give u like a little receipt with all the info on your pet! x
A budgie and a cockatiel are all right together in an aviary. It would be better for them to not be together in a small, indoor cage.
You can visually inspect the nesting area to see if there are any remaining babies. Additionally, you may notice the mother grooming and caring for all of her babies equally if they have all been delivered. If you suspect there may be more babies but are unsure, take the mother and babies to a veterinarian for confirmation.
a budgie will not die from eating cheesepuffs unless it eats too many. cheesepuffs are very low in nutrition and are not at all good for your budgie
Budgie have no teeth at all. If your budgie opened its mouth, you will see that he has a sharp beak, but no teeth :)
DO NOT remove the nesting box at all for at least 4 weeks after the litter of babies has been born. It is very important to keep the nesting box as untouched as possible until at least 4 weeks! Though the babies are out and about they will still spend much time cuddling inside (though they won't always) You may not see them in it much during the day but it is very important for them at night and is very important to stay untouched for it is where the mother will go to feed them until they are weened at 6-8 weeks
All colours! They're all beautiful.
You can put your hand in there. You can pet momma rabbit first to get her scent on you and then it wont be a problem at all.
Food chains differ from where they take place, such as in lakes, or in the ocean. On land, the budgie, or parakeet would fall into the same spot all other wild birds are in, in that they are eaten by predators that hunt and eat small wild birds.
Yes, it is much better. What are you going to do with a budgie? Spend money on something you can't do anything with? Spend money on something that screeches all night long?? I wouldn't. I would defnitily prefer horse riding.
Not at all. No Australian native birds hibernate. If your budgie is sitting with its head buried in its feathers all day, it is either too cold for the bird, or your budgie is sick.
