Question

How long does it take for budgies (parakeets) to get used to you?

Answer 1

birdguys.com is a great source. I've had mine for 8 months and it's still not friendly though.   Different times for different birds I guess!

Answer 2

if you just got it leave it alone for 2-3 weeks. =0

Answer 3

Birds can be very nervous

ive even had birds that have never

been fully used to me

Just give them time and love

They should come around

(:

Answer 4

they will never really get used to you especially if you have more than one:)

I kinda dont care and i let them be them :) even if they never pay attention like my cockateils i still love them and i still think they are interesting.

But as far as being tame and finger trained i doubt as long as they have their little flock even if that is just 2 birds:)

Sorry if this was not the answer you were hoping for

Mine 4 parakeets are not afraid of me but they just dont care :) I never have him in the cage either :)

Just relax and watch their natural behavior thats fun too :)
