Budgie Body Language: What is My Budgie Showing me?

Budgies are intelligent creatures that have many different ways of expressing themselves. Their body language can tell us a lot about how they're feeling. I've compiled several distinctive movements birbs make. Maybe you'll recognise your budgie in this :)

I love it when they shake their heads up and down

Birds are so precious, little creatures, they're the synonym of love for me, try to love them as much as possible, they deserve the whole world

Note: If I was worried about every time my budgie was puffed up, I'd be an anxious wreck 24/7. Budgies also poof up when they're relaxing and sleeping, so general poofness isn't a good indicator. You can look for other symptoms along with being poofed. Unkempt feathers, general lack of energy, cere/eye discharge, feces consistency/color, etc. Budgies love poofing up in a healthy state, so don't take this one symptom as a tell-all.

Puffing up also means a sign of happiness or contentment.

I have one budgie called Tommy. 2 of his friends died both in the past years. So he is alone sadly. But he is not depressed or something! He is healthy, happy and is interested at me A LOT haha. When I talk to him, he stares to me all the time and sometimes he reacts to me what I'm saying so we have a little conversation sometimes. He can also say his name and a little phrase like "Tommy sweet" translated to Dutch, it is "Tommy lief". And the funny thing is that he learned talking by himself I didn't learn him the words. He is 7 years old now and is my best little buddy :D

And when a budgie stands with one little paw, that is also a sign that a budgie is healthy and comfortable . My budgie does that luckly

My male budgie fluffs and wags his tail feathers whenever he sees me. It's so cute

0:35 I thought the perch shuffle meant "too hot" because my room was chilly and I put the fan heater at the covered cage for a while, with my head under to check temperature. After a while he did the perch shuffle until I turned the heat off or down and then he did it again when I turned it back up.

Thank you for your very informative video. My little Joey is a real chatterbox! His vocabulary is incredible! He sits on my finger for ages nattering away, "Does Joey want to go to bed", "Let's get you some fresh water", "Hello Cerys", "Hello Jade", "Cheeky Boy", "Joey Kiss", "I love you", "Night Night", "God Bless". The only thing I'm concerned with is his moulting. He was clipped by the breeder (he's 1 year old in November) and because of his loss of feathers, he has zero flight. Apart from when I'm away from home for the day, his house doors are open all the time, but he drops to the lounge carpet when he wants to come to me poor soul. I think it it is so moving to think he is prepared to fall 3 feet to the carpet to come to me. Of course most of the time I go for him and bring him to my chair on my shoulder. He is a very special little pal. ❤
