This was destroyed within a day after purchasing it for the cockatiels. All the ladders are chewed off and useless. You see this is why the Budgies get nicer things and you don’t. The Budgies are in the hockey room now. No more toy for you!!!

Yeah They’re both dudes🤷‍♂️😆😆😆😆

She is obsessed with jumping on the computer. Like the cell phones she chews at it. I have to close the computer when I leave the room as she is almost certain to chew a key off . (computer is usually cleaner she was eating rice krispies on it earlier)

Snow has now laid 5 eggs. Her and Kiwi have been looking after them but we are going to try gently to move them into a nesting box.

Look at all that shit on where they are sitting. Pigs. Someone better clean that up.🤪

Budgies, like all birds, do poop frequently, and it’s entirely normal for them to defecate where they perch or sit. Birds don’t have control over their bowel movements in the same way that humans do (minus a certain president of a certain country LGB👍), so they will naturally poop wherever they happen to be at the moment.

To minimize the mess and keep their living space cleaner, you can take a few steps:

  1. Cage Cleaning: Clean their cage regularly. Depending on how many budgies you have and the size of the cage, this may need to be done daily or every few days. Remove soiled bedding and wipe down any droppings on cage surfaces.
  2. Perch Placement: Try to place their perches in such a way that they are not directly over their food and water dishes. This can help reduce contamination of their food and water.
  3. Training: You can train your budgies to poop in a specific area of their cage by observing their habits and placing a designated perch or tray in the spot where they usually poop. Over time, they may learn to use that spot more often.
  4. Provide Toys and Distractions: Budgies may poop more frequently when they are active and playing. Providing them with toys and activities can help keep them engaged and may reduce the amount of time they spend perched in one place.

Remember that frequent and normal pooping is a sign of a healthy bird. If you notice any changes in the color, consistency, or frequency of their droppings, or if your budgies show other signs of illness (such as changes in behavior, eating habits, or appearance), it’s essential to consult with an avian veterinarian, as these could be indicators of a health problem.

In summary, budgies are not being “slobs” when they poop where they sit; it’s a natural behavior for birds. Regular cleaning and some basic training can help you manage their mess and keep their living space cleaner.

It’s important to remember that birds, like all animals, do not have a concept of human sexuality or gender identity. While your budgie may display behavior that you interpret as sexual attraction to both males and females, it’s more likely that your bird is simply seeking social interaction and companionship.

Using slurs or derogatory terms,🙄 to describe your bird is inappropriate and disrespectful to the LGBTQ+ community. It’s important to be mindful of the language we use and to avoid perpetuating harmful stereotypes and discrimination.

As for naming your bird, it’s up to you to choose a name that you feel is fitting and appropriate. However, it’s best to avoid using names that could be considered offensive or disrespectful to any individual or group.
