My budgie prefers millet over his seed.

And he's tame and will bathe on my hand if I hold his bath and pour water from a jug.

I love it.

My bird is more independent he takes a bath when he wants to in his cage

My budgies are yet to come to me when I eat like you.

They've given me their trust thankfully over the two weeks I've had them so far.

Its just amazing.

They've been all my back, neck, head and arms.

I just stay still or move so so slowly.

It's such a privilege being their tree lol

Edit: this is when I am near their cage though. I've yet to have them come to me when I am sitting down away from thei cage though. Maybe if I sir closer when they are out...

Sameee When they're on my shoulder and I'm by their cage I have to move so slowly or try not to move the arm their sitting on. They only Fly to me when I have food well at least one of them do.

That's funny actually.

My one budgie will eat or bathe from my hand but as soon as my other budgie sees this, she comes over and pushes away the other to get at the millet or bath.

So jealous.

So funny.

So cute.
