Some budgerigars are reluctant to come out of the cage but if he will sit on your finger in the cage, you can gradually and gently move him out. Be prepared for the bird to take fright and fly to a high area. Never chase or grab the bird. Give it time to settle and then try to get it to step up onto your finger if you can reach it. Teaching your Budgerigar to talk Many varieties of parrot have the ability to mimic human speech and budgerigars are among the best talkers.
Young birds learn to talk quicker than older birds, as do solitary birds.
Start off with a simple phrase or the birds name and repeat it everytime you pass by the cage. Do not teach the bird a new phrase until it has fully mastered the first one. Advisory Service Australia Pty. Ltd. Content Copyright.
