I have 1 budgie, He is a male both. I have been looking into getting an Eclectus Parrot tho.
So on Saturday I adopted a little budgie named indigo he is very sweet very cute and he is sick.... But that's besides the point because I'm getting that delt with today but anyways I thought I would just make a thread for updates about my little new ball of floof.

He is very sweet that's for sure but he is definitely likes to escape it took me 3 hours of coaxing yesterday to get him back into his cage I'm still not sure how he got out.

Birds are mad geniuses is the only determination I can come up with for how birds escape from anything :ROFLMAO:

i had a problem with indi for a few months he wouldent come out of his cage once i had him and julius together but he was atleast standing ontop of the door of the cage today on the outside of it. He still hasent found his little confidence to fly anywhere but he's figuring it out slowly but surely.

Indi made 3 small kinda controlled flights today lightly bounced off one of my window's onto a pillow. So he's getting somewhere! Julius either forgot how to fly in 2 weeks ( i kept them in because of house construction it was a little loud didnt want them getting spooked) or he's having vison problems because he couldent seem to find the door to the cage either so im a little worried about that- Kinda concerned Julius didnt really wasent flying well considering he used to be a really really strong fast flier and he never bumped into anything maybe he just was thrown off because he had another bird flying around in his face so i dont know but i'll let them out tomorrow too and see if it was just a fluke Julius seemed to be fumbling around a bit. Indi did great though for his first time flying around a little bit! im proud of him 😊

Good job! Did you take them to the vet? You indicated that indigo was sick when you got him. That is difficult because budgies are so fragile.
