      @Ariadne Chaidez yes, but if you did more research you would notice that cage they got is fine, only the roof has that and many budgies seem to enjoy climbing it. They have other birds so they have to quarantine pillow, since he is from a pet store. they have a flock cage later, and for taming those cages are fine.

    You guys have more common sense than my mum who:
    -thinks vets are unnecessary
    -thinks a big cage is unnecessary
    -thinks plastic perches are fine
    -thinks the birds don't need toys
    -thinks foot tags are to stop birds from flying away
    Aight time for an update:
    -we replaced plastic perches with natural wooden ones (we got them from a tree that we chopped down)
    -we bought toys for them
    -we're saving up for a bigger cage (I talked to my mum about the cage issue and she said to save up)
    -i keep asking for my mum to find a vet but she keeps forgetting :/

    So your little bird is actually a boy. He is still very young, so his cere, the nose area above his beak is a pink, but will turn blue with time. On the first day, you should have just let him stay in his cage. (Maybe the first week even.) Maybe consider doing a bit more research, and also getting him a friend, so you can ensure he lives a happy life! I’m very glad you’re teaching your son how to respect Pillow, like when pillow flew out of the box and onto the ground, and when your son tried to grab him, you showed him how Pillow was breathing fast. Not trying to be disrespectful or anything, just trying to give advice 😀

    This made me smile! It’s nice to see people who actually care for the well-being of the bird as well as the kid. The cage could be slightly bigger but if he is out all the time it’s great! So many people just throw a bird in tiny cages with no toys and only dowel perches. You guys did this whole thing right😁 I do advise you to get a couple more perches though. If you could, please get him a friend and a bigger cage. I work at a rescue and always want to help people!

      It takes time. I have had my two budgies for over a month and they are just getting used to me. And it could take longer. Just be patient. Go by their cage every day. Try introducing Miller to them. Reach in their cage to one side so they don’t feel like you are corralling them. If they don’t move get closer. But I have trained my birds successfully with millet. I guess this was just about millet. USE MILLET!

    It's so good to see so much research go into getting your new friend. You both knew about how to take care of their feet, paid attention to his breathing to recognize that he was scared, and were patient enough to give the little one his space to get acclimated to his new home. I love seeing people ADOPT birds, not BUY them. My wife and I have a half year old Pied Cockatiel (Alex) that we adopted a couple months ago. It took about 3 weeks before he stopped hissing at us when we changed his food, water, and poop tray, but we kept the door to his cage open during the day, and one day he just came out on his own.. and now he says "Peek a boo" when we come home, and showers with us, lol. It's such a rewarding feeling and I have no doubt that Pillow is still having a blast with his new Mommy, Daddy, and big Brother in 2022.

I looked up and saw a Cocketiel in the tree I put my hand up to her and she flew down and landed on my hand then hopped on to my head I slowly walked into the house and that is how I rescued our Angel we named her we had her for about 15 years .. it was glorious not sure how long she was living in the wild but I sure am glad we got her as it turned out we had an old budgie cage but upgraded pretty quickly . this is going to be a key stage in Brendan development into the young man he will eventually become empathy and being kind to another soul ...

    I gotta say, that's an amazingly tame baby Budgie for being from Petco or PetSmart...looks to me like you did very well in your choice buddy, congrats on Pillow! My very first pet was a baby Budgie that my mom bred and hand-raised and I got when I was 6 years old, and I ended-up becoming a life-long parrot breeder and owner...Spend a lot of time with him every single day buddy, and he'll be your best friend...My first Budgie lived to be 18 years old! He went away to college with me!

    Your bird is adorable. I love budgies. Please consult an avian vet on diet.. He should also have a variety of perches and toys including ladder and foot toys and swing. Cover at night and make sure there is no draft on him When out supervise him to make sure he does not get into things that could hurt him.. Make sure he does not get out the door or widow. There should be screens on windows.

    a lot of the comments say pillow is a girl but actually he is a boy. his cere(the top of his beak) is pink which means he is a baby boy. when the cere is white with a little bit of blue its a baby girl. as he starts growing his cere will slowly start turning blue.with a girl it will start turning brown. i have a picture of my budgies when they were babies and from now, so i am 100% sure pillow is a boy. have fun with your new baby

    ok if you want to read this comment please be ready for some constructive criticism. please do not take this as a joke or to be mean or brag. that cage is not sutible for any bird. i do like how he widdled down the dowel perch so pillow does not get bumblefoot ot arthuridus. but there are many flaws, first there are not enough toys, there should be at least one toy on each perch and two toys on the roof. i recommend a flight cage for parakeets and the bigger the better. also minor complaints but the water should be in a dish and there should be at least three dishes in your parakeets cage. one for food, water, and veggies. also the dishes should be in stainless steal so that it is less likely to build up viruses and bacteria. also to get the bird to stay healthy and prevent fatty liver disease you should only use the spray millet for training and he should have a bigger cage (like i said flight cage) to prevent any diseases. i have just seen so many birds in small cages with improper care and no bird should have to go through that. for anymore advice on birds visit the youtube channels, live laugh birds, and alen axp.

    WOW you guys are lucky to get such a tame parakeet without it being hand-raised and in a pet store environment. My 2 are extremely scared (one a bit more so than the other) of me and everyone that attempts to touch them (they don't bite, they just run). They're going to a budgie sanctuary this Monday so i hope they have a less stressful and more free/wild life there instead of cooped up in a cage (with many attempts to let them out to run/fly around the room, they just wanted to sit in the corner of their cage even if I left) being scared
