Before you buy

Do make sure you select a healthy bird.

It’s worth spending a few minutes watching the bird’s behaviour in the shop. Healthy birds have smooth, close feathers and are active and alert to their surroundings. Avoid birds dry which seem sleepy and sit listlessly with ruffled up feathers. Vent feathers should be clean, dry and soft, if they are discoloured and matted it could indicate intestinal problems. Check beaks, feet and claws for malformations and look for any obvious signs of disease. Damaged feathers or bald patches are not necessarily a sign of disease, but avoid parrots with missing feathers; they may be self-pluckers, a psychological condition which is very difficult to cure.

Taming - Do make the effort to tame your bird.

For your own sake as much as the birds’. An untamed bird without attention and human contact will suffer great stress, living its life in constant fear of you and its surroundings. Ask your retailer for a young bird, they settle down much quicker and are easier to tame than older subjects.

Taming Tips

One person only should take charge of the taming – once the bird is tame enough he can then be introduce to the rest of the family. The more attention you give your bird the tamer it will become.

Mirror, Mirror… - Do give your budgie a mirror.

Budgies of either sex will treat their reflection as a mate – but remove it at training times in order to get their full attention. A cock budgie may spend hours at the mirror chattering to his ‘friend’ but if he starts courting his reflection and excessively regurgitates food to it, remove it for a while.

Hygiene

Do ensure your bird has a fresh water supply daily. Don’t allow perches and gravel sheets to become heavily soiled with dropping. Your bird will be healthier in a regularly cleaned home. Change gravel sheets and wash the base of the cage every 2 or 3 days. Clean the cage and its contents, including toys, regularly with a suitable disinfectant solution that is thoroughly rinsed afterwards.

Do keep a daily check on the condition of your bird. If you spot any signs of illness don’t hesitate to consult your vet as an early diagnosis and treatment may prevent a lot of suffering.

Don’t locate food, grit or water below perches where they may become contaminated with droppings. Choose a cage where feeders are attached to the cage sides above the floor.
