For my first blog entry I will be writing about how to make a budgie trust you! Well usually, that depends on YOU to decide, but these are recommended for they are the best methods and will take the quickest amount of time to tame!
1) Let them know their environment. Budgies can be edgy and apprehensive if they are pressured if they are tamed near skittish animals and loud environment. If you just got a budgie, let them be in their cage alone for 4 days, not touching them (but at the same time, taking care of them.) After 4 days, just let them be for 2 weeks not making a loud sound such as hooting, shouting, yelling, or screaming, just talk in your normal voice. Then show them around, while also being very careful.
2) Bring the cage near you during your daily activities. As one of the steps of taming is trust, and let the budgie get to know you better and let them get comfortable. You don't really need to interact with your budgie. But if you want to, then just follow Rule #1.
3) Lure for a treat. If you know that you gained some trust from your budgie, let it be known! Slowly put your hand inside the cage, with a healthy + yummy treat or two. Remember, don't be discouraged if the budgie does not respond to your ideal plan.
Once the budgie finally trusts you, you can move on to taming your budgie!
