(copy paste text from my past video)
like I've said, you need some basic stuff to breed budgies.

let's start with *𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗴𝗲*
- needs to be wide
- 60x40 cm of the size at least
- needs 3 perches
- feeders and water bottles

the second important thing is a *𝗯𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗶𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗲*, to breed them, you need male and female, and both need to be at least 11 months old and love each other. preening, kissing, feeding, and courting each other is a great sign that they fell in love 😍

now goes a *pre-breeding* and *breeding 𝗱𝗶𝗲𝘁*... with healthy food you will force your birds to mate because in the wild when there's plenty of food, especially in summer, that means that the breeding season will start! 😁 offer sprouted seeds, vegetables, fruits, soft food, seeds, cuttlefish bones, mineral block, organic apple cider vinegar, water drops 💧

this is a link for some other useful videos:

then, I mentioned a *𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝗼𝘅* that needs to be big and made of wood, with a concave inside, and a door that you can open or close, I recommend the size of 25x18x18 cm and with 5 cm of hole (entrance), here is how you can attach the nest 10:12 😁 Place a concave dish inside the nesting box to prevent splayed legs

now what you need to observe is a sign of *a pregnant budgie*, after they have mated you will notice a swollen abdomen, excessive eating, spending more time inside the best box, and other sounds that you can see here 12:17 🐥

after she lays an egg, in that period you're going to give more water, calcium food, and vegetables, then after 18,19,20, or 21 days of *incubating* - the first chick will hatch.

𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗴𝗴𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵?
- that means that they are not fertile :( or the chick died in the embryo state probably because the eggs were not incubated properly, a female was laying on them with wet feathers, or it got broken somewhere... you can throw the eggs and try after a year :(

note: female budgies can lay eggs even without a male but they're going to be infertile 😕

𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗯𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗶𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗴𝗴𝘀?

they can be bred only twice a year, too much breeding is exhausting and it's going to kill both of the parents

𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴?
- I would choose rainy and warm months such as July - August - September - October

𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀?
- keep giving them vegetables, seeds, a few fruits, and of course egg food 🥚

... for 30 days, they're going to be fully feathered and then they start coming out of the nest. now it's time to start the *weaning period*

I am really wondering how you get your budgies to go into the nest box i know for a fact i have a male and female went in the nest box when it was inside the cage but it was a failed clutch but now they won't go into the nest box when i hang it on the outside of the cage and i want it on the outside because it is easier to reach but when it is in the inside it is VERY hard to see how everything is going and it put more stress on the both of us because I need to bend my arm and bad ways and they get freaked out but on the outside everyone on more calm can u PLs help me get them to use the nest box when it is on the outside of the cage?? 😊💜💙💚❤😥

[vinayakbhattacharjee]

😢 I'm have been using your guide to hand feed my budgies they're 4 weeks old About to turn 5 weeks...
But when I try to hand feed and bond they're mostly scared and it's hard handfeeding them especially out of a spoon as I don't want to risk air getting into the syringe....

My budgies started mating from yesterday, so after how many days will they lay eggs 🤔 can anyone tell me

[BirdWorshipper]

Sorry, I have never done this before. Not quite sure how to go about it. Not sure if Denny the Budgie creator will read this. I am just reaching out to bird lovers. I have a situation. My housemate has been terrorizing my Budgies while I am at work. I am trying to gain my birds trust and it is a semi losing battle. Please, Denny creator, or anyone else with experience, I would greatly appreciate your knowledge of how I can overcome my housemate’s ill effects.
