Bird Behavior

it was probability not a good experience if she has had babies before, because it can be painful and she might not want to go through that again.

it means that it is a female if it is younger then 1 year and it just turned around 9 months that means you have a female! I hope i helped!

I'm not 100% sure but i have a bright green parakeet and it tends to fight for a mate more than blue or lavendar colored birds. So in a way yes but in another way they are as friendly as the others.

You will need to give your bird a lot of attention to prevent loneliness and boredom, especially if he/she has previously had a mate. Birds grieve and have emotions. It is your job as the owner to prevent them from becoming bored and depressed.

I have to do this sometimes when my parakeet accidently steps in stool. I'd recommend gently wiping it with a paper towel until it's gone.

No, they will not.

Just talk to him softly for a few days and slowly move your hands to the bars. If they fly away try again later. Remember NEVER EVER stay silent during the day because they will think there is a predator near by.

Parakeets are technically omnivores, but the animal-derived food that they normally eat is the occasional insect. It's not common for them to eat meat. It is possible for a parakeet to eat its own young but it is not likely. An inexperienced parent bird may kill its chicks but it probably will not eat them.

singing is a way of comunicating for parakeets and a way of showing comfort, the male is probably not used to see a female...give him time, he'll get confortable in 2 weeks latest.

you cant

Try cover the nesting boxes in the evening before they go in to roost.

The sound a chick makes usually goes from cheeping to clucking at about 3 to 4 months old.

I am sad to say NO, they do not get along with children under the age of 14. One day when a friend of mine had a blue parakeet and her 11 year old was saying hello, the parakeet bit her and tries to peck her eye. Do not get a blue parakeet unless you have a child 14 or older!!!!!

This beast. He's allowed one per day for breakfast.

Could it be that a chicken is strutting to it's own music? Or could they be on a constant look out for some tiny juicy bug to snatch up quickly? Or are they just bobbing to keep out minds working? Maybe it's none of these. Have a great day. pam

There are alot of them, but they are not easy to use

Yes. Fruit is great for parakeets. All fruits except avacados are great for them. Avacados are deathly poisonous to them.

Make sure not to feed them the seeds of fruits.

If it is alone then it stays frozen, if you have another bird it will move around a lot

it just means that she is ready to breed

Parrots are mainly fruit and seed eating birds. The shape of a bird's beak tells you a lot about its diet. Hooked beaks and short, fat beaks are designed to be strong, to crack shells and husks. Long skinny beaks are for getting into small places and grabbing bugs or fish.

It is hooked to help them climb and dig into vegetables.

Yes they can have their own cages but make sure they dont beat up each other when they get out of the cages. But sometmes you might not want to do that, because then the parakeet might get mad and starting killing somebody. Maybe even kill you.

It is cold, sick, or some combination of the two.

You need to take him/her to a vet to have a brace put on its legs its not very expensive but if avoided can kill them :(

NO!!! Parakeets have fragile necks, and if you want to keep them in one place, get a traveling cage. It would be cruel to tether them. If you want them to stay, for instance, in your living room for a short time, put their food there.

its not just parakeets its everyones eyes when light enters the eye the pupil doesnt get bigger its the color around the pupil that gets bigger or smaller the pupil is wut the light goes through. then it reflects againts the back of your eye and that's how you see things
