Greetings everyone! I have 2 budgies. A blue male named Winter and a Female named Melo. I have had them for 8 months now. At first I tried taming them but Winter got sick after 9 days of getting him and Melo from the pet store. So I had to handle Winter and take him to the vet where he was handled and then I had to give him medicine everyday for 10 days and he got better and recovered. Then I tried taming them again and they were getting pretty used to my hand in the cage. A month after Winter healed he got sick again and I had to repeat the whole process of taking him to the vet and handling him to give him his medicine. I think He lost all trust in me. For the last 2 or 3 months I've been trying to tame him and Melo again. My budgies runaway when I put their food in the cage at feeding times. Winter and Melo can eat millet if I place the spray on my finger tips which is good, but they still do not trust me enough to perch on my finger. They always fly away from me in their cage. Today I started to trying to target train Winter first and he got scared and flew away a few times. I want so bad for them to not fear me and I love them very dearly. I would really REALLY appreciate any and all advice on how to improve my relationship with my beloved budgies.
