Bird Behavior

I was wondering too but I found out. If you want to know try taking your index and thumb

and pinching your finger (with the finger nails)

If a parakeet bites you don't jerk your hand away he/she will think that that's how to make the hand leave his/her cage.

parakeets love to be protective of there baby's and they also like dark and private spaces since a nesting box is dark and small and private they will love to hatch they baby eggs in a nesting box and so they eggs cant fall and be safe too.

Parakeets do not become pregnant, they lay eggs. Females have a pink or tan color nostril band.

Bury it and say goodbye

All chickens can and will lay eggs without mating. They will be infertile eggs like those you buy in the store for cooking and eating.

Parakeets can get sick and diseases.But they have cures for some.

It might play with a English Budgie I was told.

It means that they start a new friendship or they love each other...Sometimes you see birds do that almost everyday!

There is nothing about parakeets' color that relates to their personality. It is how they are raised and tamed that matters!

It's not so much about being touched but a fear of the human hand. Anything that looks like it can grab at them will be regarded a possible predator.

Nutritionally she needs extra calcium. This can be provided a number of ways for instance a chopped boiled egg (with the shell).

She also needs a nestbox.

He's trying to talk to you but doesn't yet know how or what to say. Also could be fear (panting).

Most parakeets know when they are about to die. They will either accept their death, or they will be freaked out.

Yes, they are not like ours though. Parakeet eyelids are hidden in their heads (sorta) They are very thick so the light doen't get through as well. But if you keep a light on all night near the bird, it won't be able to sleep.

Well about a few weeks or two. I had experince with a parakeet and she did'nt not like being at my house cause she did'nt get used to it. She got use to me about 2 weeks later so then that means she got used to the house. Oh and if you want him or she to mate with another parakeet make sure you cover the eggs. My parakeet always does that!. Anymore questions I'll be here

WikiAnswers does not provide private information about anyone.

Parakeets, like most other domestic Birds, like to have a place that is most like a nest. A Breed Box is a special box made out of wood or some other material. In some Breed Boxes, there may or may not be a shallow dip in it, so the mother bird thinks her 'nest' is, well, more like a nest like in the wild.If you provide a nest box, it will Encourage a pair of birds to mate, and if the the female does in fact lay eggs, then she would most likely lay them in the most nest-like spot she can find in her cage.Sometimes birds will not mate or lay eggs because they do not have a Breed Box. I know this from past experiances with my own pairs of birds. I hope my info helped you =D

well you can use the pipes from a mashmellow shooter to make like stairs for them to hop up and perch i got 3 parakeets and they love it hope this helped

you cant because you would never understand parakeet language

First you would need to decide what type of toy you want to make, how complicated you want to get, and what the age of the person you are making it for is. There could be safety issues with small parts or sharp edges. Next consider your skills. Do you know how to use tools, knit, crochet, paint?

Next go online or to your library. Both are a great source of free how to and patterns materials.

Some types of homemade toys:

Simple craft:

Wood blocks stringed together on yarn

Yarn dolls

Pinwheels

Knit and crochet:

Stuffed animals

Amigurumi (Japanese crochet style)

Woodcraft:

Pull toys such as ducks or trains

Blocks

Rocking horses

Board game

Sewing:

Stuffed animals

Travel game boards

A 'big bath' is an accounting term. It is when one big charge is made against assets to reduce them. It lowers the income for the current year so that in future years it will look like the company's income is increasing.

I don't think so. I read that adult female parakeets noses are brown and that adult male parakeets noses are blue. But, young female parakeet's noses are "bluish" and a young male parakeet's nose is pink.

Your budgie's leg band identifies which breeder/breeding club the budgie came from, and the year of its birth.

Yes. Usually male birds are nicer than females. Why? Because females are more aggressive and tend to be "Queen of the Cage." Also, I was taking care of a female parakeet from a friend while she gets her life in order and a male hooked up with her. For the first time she had to babies and 4 more eggs. I came home from work, they were all dead. and she was biting the heck out of her nesting box. I did not have a clue. Then the male came back and she laid eggs again in her new nesting box, I came home from work and found a female and male pecking the heck out of her head and killed her! Plus, I saw that they destroyed the eggs she had laid. I was appalled! How do I tell my friend that my birds killed her beloved parakeet? Female parakeets can become vicious and the males are much nicer, friendlier and even can get them to mimic talking. They sing more and they love other parakeets, the females, are a different story! Hope this helps you in your search for the right parakeet
