Why do budgies bite?

Biting is a natural action that budgies do when they want to show fear or anger. Instead of stomping their feet and growling or throwing their games console out the window, budgies will screech, flap their wings or bite if something is bothering them. Sometimes, budgies bite objects they get mad with! 🤣 Biting is nothing to worry about and there are ways to avoid it. In this post you are going to learn why budgies bite and how to stop them from doing it.

How do I know my budgie is biting?

When your budgies bite, it is a sign they are afraid or angry; if they bite you, they're probably scared. When budgies bite each other, they are arguing and it is important that you stop them from arguing because that can lead to consequences. The budgie will actually bite the skin; it won't tap it or lick it.  Berry is afraid of my finger, so she bites me.  


How do I prevent biting?
You might think that stop your pet bird from biting would be a difficult task, but the only thing you need to keep up is your patience. You must make the budgie get used to your finger. You must hand feed your budgie every day. Do not punish or shout at your bird because it bit you. That will make you lose its trust even more. Make sure you introduce the  to the bird. Berry was a biting budgie, but she stopped doing it so often after she met Clement.

Top tips for successful budgie care Different budgie owners  may have different views for the maintenance needed for a budgie. My view is that budgie care may be easy when you have one budgie, but gets a little harder the more budgies you have. There are specific things you need to do to keep your budgie alive, healthy and happy. I use a checklist to make sure I remember what I need to do daily, and so on. Here are some tips you must do to care for a budgie correctly. 1. Food Food must be given to your budgie daily. Millet and seeds can be good to feed your bird daily, but fruit must be given as well so the budgies have vitamins. Millet can be given as a treat, but must only be used as regular food on special occasions. Seeds can be bought from grocery stores and pet shops. Budgies are allowed a variety of fruit, but not garlic or avocado. 2. Cleaning Especially during times when budgies moult, cleaning the cage, the budgie's environment and perches is very important as there are ...

Do you want a budgie? Introduction

  Budgies - are you fond of them? Budgies are pets and companions that most people love. They’re birds that are capable of changing your life. But before thinking that having a chirping friend that loves you, you have to get prepared to earn its trust and to look after it. And trust me. It’s not as easy as it looks. Before I got Blueberry, I thought it would be easy to look after one too. And to earn its trust. But it was the hardest skill I could ever do. My feathered friend has taught me new things and increased my patience. Budgies can come in many different colours and have different personalities. Some are aggressive, others are social and others are friendly. The best way to tame or to train a budgie is with food. The only thing that can’t be controlled with budgies is that they cannot be toilet trained. Yes, they do it every 10 - 15 minutes. But they can easily be cleaned with tissues. If you want a budgie that can easily become your friend it is best to choose ones younger ...
