One more tip If you have 2 budgies or more it's best to separate the one you're looking to tame or gain it's trust so the others won't distract it :)

My budgie only trusts me enough to step on my hand ONLY when I have a treat

Lets all appreciate the fact he makes legit short vids straight to the point

For anyone who hasn't had a pet, you don't how rewarding it is for your pet to finally trust you.

“Never try to grab your budgie” *TRIES TO GRAB BUDGIE*

Are we all going to ignore that he handshaked his budgie? 😍

I feel like people think they can tame or get their budgie's trust in one day Nope it takes time and you have to be patient with it otherwise you'll just mess is up and your budgie will not trust you so, thanks for saying it took you a whole month and being realistic

Been training my budgies for 2 days like this and it’s going so well thanks a lot!

My sister had a budgie when we were younger. They LOVED watching Star Wars, not because the effects were awesome, but they seemed to respond to R2-D2 when he speaks.

Thank you for saying this doesn't happen overnight! I'd like to add that birds can also be taught voice commands. My 9 year old budgie was very scared and traumatized when I rescued her, but she's also very smart. To help her with her terror of fingers, along with these methods, I'd also say her name and "step up" if I wanted her to get on my finger. If I was just getting a dish or cleaning, I'd say "excuse me!" several times while in the cage. She figured out pretty quickly that she wasn't getting grabbed or poked at, and would calmly step up if I asked, or watch as I cleaned. She's still not thrilled with being petted, but is okay with it and is calm when her nails need trimming or I need a closer look at her. That has taken her lifetime (I've had her for 8 years).

Ahh yes... "How to make your budgie trust you", hosted by Kermit the frog

32 years and I just got my first budgie. Day 1, he or her, is already perching on my finger. Here's to hopefully a happy bird life ❤❤

My goodness this video is just spot on. I had little to no relationship with Zekia my budgie. But after a day or two of doing what you said she now calmly perches on my hands. Thank you so much!

When I first got my two budgies I did a lot of things wrong. I lost their trust and gained a little again. But then I realized what I was doing wrong, so I started from scratch. Now I my budgies have been with me for a whole year and they are comfortable with stepping on my hand and climbing around, climbing up in my hair, gently nibbling my face and even flying to me when I’m standing in the right position. I love them and to this day I still feel guilty about what I did at first. They seem happier and make me generally happier too

i never thought i would come across a video of kermit the frog showing me how to get a bird to trust me.

mine is literally shaking

My budgie is so smart she flies to me often and also does all these cool little things whether it be walking around on the floor to climbing up and down the curtains. She can also escape her cage and also flies around like a humming bird when I’m trying to eat and if she hears you open a bag of chips she won’t leave you alone until she gets one 🤣

bille before:NOOOOOOOO THIS HOOMAN IS ATTACKING ME!!!!! bille now: oh hooman is here he does nothing *hops on hand*

no one: my budgie: accepting hand feeding, going on my hand, and going out of her cage on the first day i bought her

Training wild sparrows in a small town in Switzerland I have been blessed with them for years. It's also possible to do this yourself 🙂 by following these simple steps. 1) Find a clan of sparrows you are living close to, try and make sure that there aren't too many pigeons or seagulls in that area. Always wear the same jacket and a hat is recommended to ensure you look the same each time you approach. Whistle a few times 😉. 2) Identity the alpha male of the community, he will be the oldest, darkest brown with a grey patch on his back. 3) Start with white bread, now this is not an ideal food as the starch and sugars are not the best diet, make sure that you are prepared to pay for some sunflower seeds or raw cereals. At first just throw something down a stay at a distance. 4) After you have established that you can see the alpha, watch him, especially when you throw them the food. He will be waiting for your next visit. 5) Chill, just stick around for as long as possible and do not approach them. Leave some bread next to you at all times. 6) After a few weeks you'll be able to whistle while holding the bread out, first they will come and take it in flight and eventually the bolder ones, particularly the alpha and his main squeeze will land on your head. At this point you are well advised to change the food from bread to other more healthy foods. 7) Name your sparrows and then you will even have dreams about them. Take care of yourself and eachother.😊

Got my pair of budgies 5 months ago. Still working on it 💙

I have two budgies and i treat them exact same. One of them loves me very much that she even enters in my mouth with her own will and refuse to leave my shoulder at all times. But the other one NEVER put a feet on my hand, moreover he's scared of my hand but feels free to sit on my head. I guess the difference is about their personality. Also i'm second owner of my distant budgie, he may not had a nice relationship with its previous owner.

Thank you for the tips! I’m gonna be starting fostering different kinds of parakeets, so this will be very helpful to know!

She's so smart 🥺 Great video man!

I read that as how to make your budgie crush you 💀💀

Perfect. I thank you a lot for this as my budgie is now MUCH more comfortable around me

I like that you aren't like most bird KZfaqrs who make it look too easy. You actually showed the before and after instead of the, oh he'll come out randomly for sure.

Thanks! 😊 The one seed on the finger thing is new to me. Might try that out too 😋 Billy is so cute! 😁

The thumbnail tho 😍

Thank you for giving these steps my budgies are trusting me and they are comfortably sitting on my finger.

This helped so much- someone I know that owns birds told me to just grab the bird even if they’re not comfortable with it because if I don’t they will think that they can do whatever they want and they’re in control of you but it actually just makes them scared and loose trust in you

my budgie hates me when he is in her cage-

My mother forced my budgie to bath everyday and I said no every time she said he will not bath tell he will live unbathed and after 1 year it ended up dying I miss him so much that I cry sometime thinking of him it's been 2 years since he died and I also cry today when I think of his cuteness and playfulness and his chirping . R.I.P Rio

My budgie doesn't like any food other than seed, he won't eat millet out of my hand, but I'll try the first method! I already talk to him 24/7 lol

I am very thankful to you I have four budgies and because of you only they are healthy and happy ☺

Thank you so much for all the videos you make. I was actually able to convince my parents to let me get a bird, and your information will help me better prepare for his arrival :)

Him: you want to start with spray millet, this is the ultimate treat and budgies go crazy for it My budgies: eating grass seeds, dandelion leaves, and clovers but avoiding spray millet.

I just want to say thank you for all of your vids they helped my bird but now he’s in a better place

I make this things since a little child with buggies I LOVE them. Birds is all for me. Kisses for all

Thank you, Kermit.

i got my baby a couple days ago and did this, im watching the vid and im like hell yeah ive coincidentally been doing everything right

Working with a very scared budgie. 15 years experience with parrots and this is a real challenge. Hes also staying with my father who is delirious right now so theres a lot of commotion. Ive been sneakily setting up his life so that he needs “rescued” from time to time which is helping a lot. Starting to see some trust form very slowly!

She looks adorable! And very healthy! 🕊🕊😊

I really needed this !!!!!......hope now they'll trust me .....love your videos btw ...lots of Love ❤️

It's just so cute how Billie hanshakes- 😌🤚

I have not yet tried the first way to tame my 2 parakeets, but I will start my five days of doing that tomorrow. Thanks for the advice!

Your budgie is absolutely adorable ❤️

Im starting to gain my budgie’s trust wit these helpful tips!

i have two bugies that i bought from a really good breeder a week ago who was already tamed but it did not trust me. Your video was very helpful thank you

I have two budgies, and your videos helps so much

I am bringing home two budgies soon and I’m so excited! Thanks for the helpful content.

Its completely an informative video having stupendous content! ✨ Lots and lots of praises to u! 👏

Thanks, this helped a lot. ever since my first bird died about a month ago my other bird lost my trust. so this will help me a lot! RIP Charlie

Thank you, for your advices, Kermit!

@Salvador Budgie - Thank you for doing these videos! There's so many videos out there of perfectly tamed birds (which are a blast to watch) but there are so few videos that offer helpful suggestions for new budgie owners (like this one) trying to help the budgies overcome non-trusting, scared birds who won't come out of their cage, won't play.... just sits there a lot of the time. Any helpful pointers would be so appreciated. Love this one! I have a challenging bird that I've had for just under 2 months. He's a sweetie but is still so reserved and attached to his cage, rarely plays, is unusually quiet, etc. Thanks so much!

That thumbnail bird looks like my Tweety budgie!! Aww I miss him so much!!

Thank u for the tips!

This helps me so much! Thank You SOOOOO MUCH!!!!

Just got me a budgie today ! So excited

my budgie woke me up flying around the room and I hop on KZfaq and this gets recommended 😂

I’ve had my budgie for 5 years. It’s took a couple of those years for her really to trust me. But now I can’t walk past her cage without her yelling at me and slamming into the door to take her out.

Thank you so much i watched this like at august and i just follow your tips and now is october now my budgie is standing on my hand 🥰

It actually works! Thank you so much now my budgie let’s me pet him a in the tummy and I just purchased him 2 days ago!!!

The budgie looks like my budgie Sky 🥰💖

This video is awesome. You really deserve to have more vievers.

This is really good advice I have a new budgie and it’s getting scared and this is really helpful for my new budgie

I just got a new budgie, she was very scared and would freak out every time I entered my hand in the cage but now after doing it for some days she doesn't freak out almost at all!i know taming them takes time but I am happy that she is starting to trust me a lil :)

MY OTHER BUDGIE DIED AND WE ONLY HAVE 1 LEFT SO IM GOING TO MAKE SURE HE ISN'T DEPRESSED AND THAT HE'LL STAY HAPPY AND TRUST ME

My budgie's story: i got him by accident 8 days ago. It was lying in the balcony of our kitchen n a couple of pigeons were shouting on it. I shushed out the pigeons n grabbed the budgie by an old mask. I have a Sunconure (Coco) who is an year old. When he was a baby we had got him a small cage n we still had it so i put the budgie in that small cage, gave it water n seedmix. After 3days it was alright now playing on its own in the cage n making various cute sounds. The next day (4th day) i decided to pet it too as it looked fine now n put my hand inside d cage but it started jumping n shouting which grabbed my Sunconure's attention n made him aggresive. I then tried to make the budgie quiet but it won't shut up. So i directly grabbed it (some thing i shouldn't have done as i wanted to pet it.) So now i am here looking out for vids about gaining trust of budgies as i jad no idea how to do it cuz my coco is very well fine n doesn't even bite when grabbed cuz i grab lightly. Thnx for this videos it is really helpful😁

Thanks for the helpful guides

this really helped thanks and i love your channel

My mom keeps grabbing my Budgie out of her cage despite her knowing it’s scaring her. I’m trying to get her used to my hand though.. Even if she doesn’t trust my mom, will my Budgie still learn to trust me?

Amazing Transformation 🦜💚

thank you so much salvador budgie! My budgie was so calm on day one. he walked onto my hand himself and tried to groom me. he was very alert though

I've been hand feeding my budgies i dont know if it's doing something but they've been kinda looking at me for a bit

I have 1 budgie and it is 5 months old, and it's green. He doesn’t want me to pet him

I had a budgie for 9 years while growing up. His name was Chester and he was my best buddy. I’d be doing HS homework in the kitchen and he’d fly out and land on my shoulder and begin chirping while chillin. Miss ya my dude, fly high

Ok tysm I really needed help on train them!

I read my budgie two chapters of a book. That way I think he's getting used to my pressence, I'm kinda doing my summer reading, and we' re bonding. And also he let's me put my hand closer to him now.

first day & my budgie is already so attached, im just worried that it’ll get too lonely because im not in the house often due to school & work so im getting a second one soon, im also worried it doesn’t drink enough water & eat enough food (seeds) how often should they do this

Thank you so much for these tips🐦🐥🐥

Thank you. This is very informative.

My bird dares to climb on my hand only when I have something to eat 😔😔
