SO, I am thinking about getting a second budgie. The pair would be a girl and a boy, but I won't have any possible nesting spots in the cage. I was just wondering, is it possible to tame two budgies that live in the same cage to enjoy human interaction? Teach them to step up and everything? And how would I go about doing that?
How To Tame Two Budgies

Not the greatest idea as you have no way to know if they will even like each other and if they do, you could easily end-up being the odd one out!
Setting it up so that you have a male and a female may help in there liking each other, but just because you do not provide a nesting place will not assure they will not mate. Unlike chickens, budgies are not hardwired to survive and you will likely have to feed the chicks, which is a 24 hour a day requirement.
If you really have to have another Budgie, get the same sex that way you eliminate the issue of mating.
Taming become more than twice as difficult!

Agreed. The way to tame a single budgie is not to get a second one. Once tamed, really tamed, then it's time to think about if YOU want a second parrot, not if he needs a little friend, which often does not work out
