Is this okay?

So basically, our house is sold (under contract sorta thing) and we are moving into our other small house temporarily. When I let my soon to be budgie fly in my room, I want to create a safe environment. So, I have put some stickers on my window. Are these enough? Originally I only had the budgie sticker, but it was definitely not enough.

Being the Queen of Paranoia that I am (!), I'd tend to go for more. All of my windows are covered either with timber venetian blinds, net curtains or solid-coloured drapes, or they have that security mesh like yours has on the right, so they know there's no space where they can fly straight through - or at least try to! I'd go for more stickers if you can't put a net curtain up there, besides they're very pretty

Okay, thank you. I guess theres no harm in getting more because they're so pretty! 😁

More! As someone whose bird just smacked his little beak on a glass door, they need more in order to recognize the window as something solid and not fly-thru-able. I have even shown Salty that windows are hard, but in a panic, they forget and try to whoosh right thru glass. More stickers or even a thin gauzy type curtain.

I just ordered some stickers for my windows. Everything I read says there should be marks every 2 to 4 inches apart, depending on the birds, because smaller birds will try to fly through smaller spaces. You don’t have to use stickers…you can put dots of tempera paint, put on stickers cut from frosted plastic, or use chart tape (1/4” wide tape) spaced every few inches. But especially for a short term place, marking with paint is cheap and effective.

My vote would be to go for simple curtains, that would be the absolute safest and best option! A simple white lacy curtain is totally cool - still see through but the bird can see there is something. Also often will soften the impact, if there is any.

In this case without the curtain, more stickers would be in order!
