What is the best Pellet food for Budgies?	199
My husband and I have had 2 budgies for about 4 yrs now. They get along wonderfully, (male and female) About a year ago we bought another budgie and he has his own cage. We recently decided to try and integrate the new one to the other two. The older male did well with him and wanted to play but the female wanted to pick on him so we can't leave him in with her. How can we safely integrate the new budgie with the other two we already had?	446

every day sometimes twice a day we have to wipe clean our budgies rear. The mess builds up over night and by the morning he is wriggling and squeaking trying to push the next one out, also he smells sicky. he seems bright and cheerful and once the daily wash is over he is out of his cage all day causing the normal havoc. he has scratched his rear so much there are not many feathers left. He occasionally has apple, lettuce and carrot. We changed his seed from trill thinking it may be too rich for him and have bought the pet shop variety but it hasn't made any difference in about a month. He is 6 years old in november. please help	103

My parakeets love the big, dried sunflower heads that you can buy from catalogs or pet shops. They're expensive so I've been growing my own sunflowers. My question is whether I can just clip (and wash) the whole fresh sunflower head for them? Is it safe for them to eat the yellow flower part? The dried ones come without the yellow.	9
I own 4 budgies, I keep 2 of them in an indoor cage and play with them outside the cage. I sometimes let the indoor budgies into the aviary for a very long play time but one of the budgies in the aviary is female and I am hoping she will have babies with the male aviary budgie. Will putting my two "pet 2 male budgies in the aviary stop her from breeding ?	33
My daughter's English Budgie has recently started to get very nippy with her and seems very cranky. He used to like to come out of his cage etc. but now he wants to stay in the cage and he has been getting very "frisky" with a few of his toys. Is this just a phase he'll grow out of? We are taking the toys he seems to have crushes on out of the cage which mad him even more of a grump. He's around 5 months old and is going through his first molt also.	176
