RE: Parakeet Behavior
I have had 6 parakeets for about 3 months now. I'm not sure what kind they are as i'm extremely ignorant about birds, seeking for advice. They have a huge cage my dad built before he got them probably 3.5 feet in height and 3 feet in width. This is the second time that both mothers have layed eggs. Each time a baby comes out, all the birds attack it. i don't know why. i feel so bad. my dad says it's in they're nature and i say he's full of it. i would like to know more!!i come home to find it in the corner all by itself so we brought the bloody bird in tonight. it's right wing is torn and they tried to peck his eyes out. i feel so bad please help!

I had a beautiful yellow parakeet who was a lutino. She was pared with a male white and blue parakeet,they started well, but as he got older he started harassing the female to the point she fell and died. Is this normal behavior?

I am thinking about getting a parakeet but I don't know if they are mean or nice and from the looks of it they don't like to come out of their cage! =(

RE: Parakeet Behavior
I got my bird a couple of days ago. I haven't seen him playing with his toys and it seems like he wants to say some thing but no sound comes out. Anyone know why? He doesn't chirp really. When I take him out of his cage he just usually flies right back to it, and tries to get in. I know that's where he feels safe but I want him to fell safe outside. Can anyone help me out?

My parakeet Oscar which I've had for about a month now, loves to walk back and forth on the bottom of his cage. It makes us all laugh but I want to know if he is unhappy or not.

When I first got my parakeet, she never bit hard. Now she's biting harder. Is that a good thing?

RE: Parakeet Behavior
I want a parakeet for my Birthday so I'm going to set up a little book of parakeets information for my dad. Are parakeets mean or nice, do they bite, and do they chrip a lot? Please respond.

I just got my first parakeet about three days ago. She is hand trained and not really scared of people, but she is nervous in her new home. When ever i take her out of her cage, thunder, seems ok. After a few minutes she starts to whistle loudly. I think, its because she wants to go back into her cage and when i put her back she keeps doing it for another five minutes or so. Please help! i don't know what she is trying to say!

RE: Parakeet Behavior
I had purchased a parakeet a couple week's back and she was loving and affectionate. She never bit me once, and always wanted to come out of her cage! in fact she would go into her seed dish and start pushing all the food out of it in order to get my attention to let her out! All of the sudden she does not seem to want to come out of cage, sits in the corner of the cage and attempts to bite me when I try to take her out! I do not understand what happened for her to do this!

RE: Parakeet Behavior
I just got two parakeets together a couple days ago. The first day i got them, they were very happy. They let me hold them and let me put them on my shoulder, but now they won't let me take them out of their cage. What should I do?

RE: Parakeet Behavior
they need some grit in their diet, in nature they eat small rocks to diegest basically what is going on is they are trying to get the food to diegest,s o buying grit from your local pet shop and putting it into another food dish will help

RE: Parakeet Behavior
Parakeets are one of the best talking birds. They have tiny voices and speak very quickly. Talk to your bird and say phrases slowly. Maybe he'll learn and want to talk. My last one spoke and I gave him to a Spanish speaking family. He also learned to speak Spanish.

RE: Parakeet Behavior
It's a self comforting behavior, like rocking, done to relax and enjoy. As long as there's no gagging/neck contorting, it's a good thing

From 15 yrs exp. caring for budgies, to me it seems like the bird is eating, like regurgitating from its crop. Sometimes they also do that when they're happy. It's a good sign, at any rate. They love you.
