Handling/Training of our Parakeets for sale

Taming and training parakeets is pretty easy. Parakeets become accustomed to their new environment fairly rapidly. Consequently, very little time is required for parakeet training, they can quickly become easy to handle. Repetition, patience, and time are the keys to successful parakeet training!

Taming Basics
Even though parakeets quickly adapt to their environment, you should give a new arrival a few days to get used to you, your voice, and its cage before trying to handle it. A hand-fed baby will not need much taming and can often be handled right away, as it is used for human attention. To be able to handle and train your parakeet depends first on trust, so go slowly and be consistent.
Remember that taming and training a bird takes patience, never ‘punish’ your parakeet! This only serves to destroy the trust you’ve spent so much time building.

Initial Training
Speak softly to the bird to calm it and always move slowly. Start from the floor and approach the bird from the side rather than head-on. With a treat held between two fingers, coax it onto your hand. It may try to fly and you may have to repeat this several times. Once your parakeet steps on your hand, you then start having it step up from one hand to the other.
If necessary, you can repeat the hand-taming lessons several times a day but for short periods of time, about 20 minutes a session. Depending on the tameness of the bird, these two steps can be instantaneous as in a hand-fed baby. Or it can take several weeks or longer for an untamed bird.

Advanced Training
Repetition and frequency are the keys here. Almost every parakeet can learn at least a few words, although they are not generally as vocal as African Greys or the Amazons.

Temperament

Budgies are gentle and docile birds. They are also very easy to tame, especially if acquired at a young age. Pairs of birds make good company for each other, but when in living pairs and entertaining one another, they may not bond as well with their owners or mimic speech as fluently. Budgies are also very playful, active, and quieter than some other types of parrots.

Maintenance:

Basic cage care includes daily cleaning of the water and food dishes. Weekly you should wash all the perches and dirty toys, and the floor should be washed about every other week. A total hosing down and disinfecting of an aviary should be done yearly, replacing anything that needs to be freshened, such as old dishes, toys, and perches.
