You can never spoil a Budgie.

This was definitely helpful and inspiring. I've wanted to build something for my birds since I've had them, early November. After spending $22 on a toy that my budgies don't even really interact with, I most definitely want to build something myself. I've got some ideas about how I want to go about doing it, and this video not only helped fortify some of my ideas, but it gave me a few more new ideas. I can't wait until I build them their new playground.

You've inspired me! I have purchased some items and will be buisy making some fun and safe toys. The more I research, the more picky I am with what my birds can get ahold of and swallow.

i bought some materials this weekend to try and make some similar things for my budgies and cockatiels, now that i saw your process i feel more inspired and confident that i can actually do it; great video

Those little feets kill me!!! So precious

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Absolutely in love! I have to try to make these!

great idea! I have been having a heart time finding a variety of play gyms, I do have pointers (tips) though: - make sure to sanitise the branches (no bugs/pests/etc)(you can use pressure washer and wipe wipe vinegar - any metal used, make sure they are stainless steel (avoid toxic material) -also avoid plastic - same for any coloured blocks/pcs make sure they are only coloured with natural colouring (food colouring) - its better adviced to avoid using bells so no fingers or beak gets stuck to them - oh also same for spray paint make sure they are bird safe (although honestly I personally would avoid spraying altogether) - if you are using ropes (including for perching) try to use materials such as sisal (but make sure they are not covered in substances), seagrass, etc, cotton rope is not highly recommended as their claws might get tangled or they might ingest them (it is fine if you know your bird doesnt chew on it and/or if they are placed outside the cage and with supervised playtime basically, always do your research and make sure to bird proof everything, birds have a very sensitive reparatory system and toxic fumes can be fatal .. immediately .. (including any cookware with Teflon steer clear from them!)

They are so cute! I enjoyed you making those!

Hi! :) As somebody who is a new owner of Parakeets I need some assistance in regards to the ideal bird cage for 2 budgies! 😅

@andy6477733157

Жыл бұрын

Each bird needs their own cage. The two cages should be large enough for them to fly around, the bigger the better. The tiny cages you see in pet stores are actually just carrying cages you'd use to take them to the Vet. You will also need a common area where they are allowed to play, socialize and fly around for at least two hours every day. Build your own playground, trees, and stands throughout your home so they can fly from one Safe Zone to another. Keep them out of kitchens and do not use aerosol spray / harsh cleaning supplies around them. Good luck! If you're not careful and crafty budgies will easily break your budget lol

@andy6477733157

Жыл бұрын

Oh! And extremely careful when you purchase anything parakeet-related from online or petstores. Just because it's marketed towards budgie care and has a picture of a parakeet on the packaging *does not* mean it's always safe. This is unfortunately the case for MOST toys you come across. The petstore employee knows nothing. Things to avoid: Stay away from bells that may be made out of lead and spray painted to look shiny, cotton rope that can choke your bird to death through indigestion / chewing, and ANYTHING made out of fuzzy polyester fabric that greatly damages their sensitive respiratory system. Do not buy them nests that makes them hormonal or "Happy Hammocks" that are known to kill birds overnight. Do not give them mirror toys. Avoid seed-only diets and do not buy pellets with colored dyes in them. Get the expensive stainless steel bowls, they are worth it in the long run *not* the cheap plastic ones. Most of all, keep doing what you've been doing and conduct your own research. Question everything and be suspicious of all parakeet toys, food, and items before you impulse buy.

Superb... Thanks for sharing such an amazing videos

I like your videos 🙂.But I feel sorry about cookie 😢

My budgie freaks out whenever I put anything new in his cage! I have had him for 3 years!

If your family member is allergic to a parakeet can you keep a parakeet in your room away form then? Like if there is no exposure will it still effect them.

Is Budgie eat corns? specially Baby Budgie.

What why of tree branches can we us?

Can you tell me where is this store you buyed the asesories from?

Do budgies eat sunflower seeds ?

It's best to bake the branches in the oven before making toys because any branches taken from outside could contain parasites and bacteria.

Just a tip. Birds love to play with toys they can destroy. You can buy or make it yourself, as long as the materials are safe for animals and are destructible your bird will love it!

That could be anything, for how long is he acting like that? That could be during molt season, if he is bored can be a reason too. To be sure and act on time, it is recommended to take your budgie to the vet if you have doubts about his health condition.

Hello, I didn’t know where to write, and I hope you will help me. Recently, my budgie started to change her nose colour. And no, it’s not because she is getting older. She had the nose of grown up female budgie. Brown. But now, her nose is half blue, half dark brown. Also, I think she is sick. She became less active and is almost all the time sleeping. Can you please help me?
