I think there is something not right about my 9 month old hand raised budgie, Joey. When she was only 5 months old her cere turned brown like a mature breeding hen. At only 6 months she began chasing the male budgies, posturing to mate with any make that responded and soon laid a clutch of four questionably fertile eggs that I took away and subbed dummies which she say on for over a week until I took them away. I now keep her alone in my bedroom where I spend a lot of time with her. She is hyperactive and very bonded to me and my husband. She literally hangs all over us and tried to crawl into our clothes. She never bites and grooms out faces any chance she gets. If she manages to fly out of the room to the room where the rest of my flock lives free flying all day she chases the males like she'd hormonally crazed and the males respond albeit reluctantly sometimes. It's very difficult to get her back into the bedroom where she lives.
I have never seen a female budgie behave like this. It's bizarre. Females are usually aloof and the males have to try to make a connection with them and it isn't automatic. Is it possible that she has a hormone disorder? She is absolutely out of control! She has no interest in any female budgies but isn't mean either.
Has anyone ever had a female bird of any kind that is so obsessed with sex? Help!
