you can climb a tree or jump a fence & get away from a dog. birds? not so much...:biggrin: birds are cool though. fuck, anything that flies except mosquitoes, gnats, drones, yellowjackets & police helicopters is ok with me...

had parakeets & budgies as a kid. always wanted a free-ranging crow as a pet. falconry looks cool as hell, but that takes some serious dedication to get into, literally YEARS of helping another falconer care for his birds as an apprentice before you can cature your first bird from the wild. you read that right, you can't buy a raptor to start...:tiphat:

Why Does the left wing Permanently Stick out at a Rear Angle on this Yellow Budgie ? He's in no pain at all.



I Bought the 3 on Monday and He/She Came like that.

thx;

I'm not sure whether to take her back or not /: ... :chin: ...ltr jus' make a brew ! (-;

... Ya know when you have a mental picture of exactly what you want ... Anyway lol,(;.... 5-6? days ago I waltz'd into the local petshop and saw must of been nr 20 perfect lookin green an' yellow budgies in a glass Cage - would of liked too buy a couple? there an then, i realised.But didn't have the dosh. :) last Monday I went there on the bus, an' decieded Iz gonna get 3 of em (a first, with that number ! ), But they were ALL gone bar 3 of them... (Were all busy ppl I guess, with the same outlook (; ). So I took all 3, without really lookin, feelin a bit dismayed by the lack of numbers tbh.
Could of done better but Not bad at all, HuaaA ! :yes:
Great company , association with em like all pets is brill'. - Trill ! (-:

Two are quite smallish ;),
Would you keep the two smaller ones and take the other back ? ,that's what I'm thinking - the two smaller ones seem to get on better and look more the same. Tinkin that ole saying 2's company 3's a crowd ;

Can he/she fly without any problems?

If cant fly then probably a problem, may have even been born like that.

My sister had budgies when she was a kid and havent seen a wing like that before, but am no expert mate:tiphat:

Accumlative effect , sure

However,concern is growing. Although never once winced in discomfort the depiction - Workload for the other 2 is detrimental when she stretches that wing don't Move man,

Took the bird back, ..pops whos been around livestock etc for 60 years says in way of speaking this has been witnessed lots of times........ seen in cattle many times. " Born like that ,this happens when inbreeding? Incest happens , a deformity is often placed n witnessed, from such act , other is effected.

" SIMPLY a sin. ( another ) . " we laugh " Eyh... an yaz all use the word just and so often.etc. .............SorreE , ya dont know what ya do.(;(;(;(; .... been waiting many yrs, 1 man suffers for all sins of man.......time has to happen soon........ FKOUT 50 in less than 4 yrs a second after birthtime has passed on november the 16th.

Context, freshers.... of what remains. - BUT many know now, so there is somewhat of a smile , sure resolution

One of my sister's budgies could mimic our home phone back then, countless false alarms from that little bugger lol.

Also seems like budgies love a bit of music too, used to bop about like mad lol.

Peace.

I like chickens.

Therefore I must like birds.


Would it be possible to have a pet bird like you guys are showing - and to then let it free range with the chickens ?

It would be protected by a rooster.

Do birds that are domesticated as pets have instincts to scratch in the ground to find bugs and worms ?

Finches produce eggs like crazy. 4 of them and the most I've had is 13 in there !

Pops had Chickens yrs ago, and a cockeral ! :-D. " Paxo rooster Booster ". Hillarious ! Every daybreak he'd sound off, as well as in the day sometimes. He'd fly over the fence and walk around the yard. Liked showing off to the Ladies :)
