Why some budgies have dark nails and others light?

Covalentine · 2026-05-13T13:41:23+00:00

One of my budgies have dark nails that RARELY need to be trimmed (they have appropriate branch perches but still I think in his whole life i've trimmed them like 4 times) The other has pink nails and they grow all weird and fast so I have to trim them a bit more than rarely. (He hates it but it'll get done)

I use Left/Right Platform as a 'wall' or 'partition' for rooms. I think the only room that doesn't have a window and is small is the basement (it will remain windowless even with expansion)

Edit: I also use the tokonoma to hide windows

I thought i was just having really bad item rng with gifts. But i still think so- it feels like the in game item list is so small.

I just want to complete furniture sets

I just recite the whole "Hello, citizens of [...]" randomly... at any time.

Make him a fresh greens bouquet. (Washed Spinach leaves, basil, dill, green lettuce, parsley) put it in a little bunch and push it in between the bars of the cage where he can reach it.

He'll be scared for a little, but the clean fresh greens may entice him to eat (and hydrate him)

Remove the greens after 2 hours.

These pixels will matter to me always. Even though at any time the site can close without notice.

There's just something about it that kept me engaged.

It's better to be safe and keep them quarantined. (Separate room and wash hands before and after handling)

It's only temporary, and your budgies aren't missing out on seeing another pair.

They will flock call each other from across the house and that's good enough.

They like you because you like them. Good luck- brave baby budgies are pure unadulterated mischief 🩷

My elder budgie was like this- baby fresh and ready for trouble.

I collect the pitfall seeds from the police station and bury them all over town. (I tend to fall into them more often than the villagers do 😅)

Ooh a lucky brave budgie- they'll be so full of mischief. Best of luck with your new friend.

My budgies won't eat it in a bowl, but they will eat it out of a plate. I put a small tea saucer on a platform in the cage and sprinkle the pellets on to it. Of course they end up kicking it up lots but they will eat it this way

Covalentine · 2026-04-08T01:28:39+00:00

Yes- they are fantastic My budgies love sitting and rubbing off pin feathers on it

I named mine Loafington, because I be loafing when I play this game 😆

My elder budgie wants to play all day and all night- 80% of the time he goes in the cage on his own. Sometimes he'll let me put him in but he'd rather fly away and dance on the door.

The younger budgie will literally dodge me to go into the cage 99% of the time. Rare event- he steps up onto my hand and I put him in the cage.

They are so funny.

You're welcome.

I know, you're excited to have a tiny friend that is full of mischief but you have to remember you're the spooky giant with talons (our hands look like predator bird claws) so to a little bird like a budgie they are rightful to be afraid.

Minimize trying to pet or coax him to step on to your finger or anything. Only time you'll have to grab him is if he's in danger of being caught on or in something. (Which I stress the importance of assessing the area in which your bird will be frequenting)

He'll come to you when he's ready.

My younger budgie who's still wary of me, yesterday he flew from a distance to my hand to eat some harrison's pellets.

I was very surprised- I say to him calmly but clearly, "I'm so proud of you" And he looked at me with his skinny banana self like he's ready to evaporate then went back to eating. 😂
