A budgie is a small bird.If you already know how to take care of a budgie, it is time to learn to train it.Prepare for a lot of fun.
Step 1: Make your budgie feel at home.
It will take time to get used to its cage.Make sure the bird is in a quiet environment before attempting to train it.The budgie should feel comfortable by this time.Stay close to the cage if you know how to take care of a budgie.Don't try to handle it as you wait for it to adjust.You will be used to it in a few days or weeks.Loud noises and screams are not advisable.The budgie is likely to be stressed by this new environment.Give your budgie a name.It gets used to its new name if you say it often.You should read your bird a story.Budgies like to hear their owner's voice.You can make your voice familiar by reading them a book.
Step 2: The budgie needs to be fed and water daily.
You will slowly be recognized by the budgie as the one providing food.The bird will be excited to see you.Even if the budgie hasn't touched the food or water, it should be changed daily.A budgie will refuse to eat for up to a week as it gets used to its new surroundings.Before training starts, introduce your budgie to treats.You can give it fruit or seeds.If it has an incentive, your bird will be more willing to learn.If you want to keep your bird healthy, don't exaggerate with treats.
Step 3: The budgie can fly in a room.
If the bird is at ease with you, you can let it fly in a room with all of the windows and doors closed.The extra space will make your budgie happy and keep it fit for training.If you want to call it back, you need to close the window and switch off all the lights.The budgie will be drawn to the light.Put it back in the cage.Make sure that there is no animal in the room.Don't let your child frighten the bird.Budgies are easy to traumatize.
Step 4: Physical contact should be encouraged.
Put your hand in the cage once your budgie is settled.Allow your bird to get used to being in the cage for a few days.Place your finger inside the cage when the budgie seems okay.Push it against your budgie's chest.This will make it climb on your finger.The bird might be hesitant at first.You can stroke the bird's breast with the back of your finger if it is intimidated.Show love and care.You can put seeds on your finger.Your budgie is likely to climb on your hand to eat them.For a few days, you can teach your pet to trust you.
Step 5: Start with directions.
Instructions such as "Step Up!" can be used when talking to your budgie."Step down!"It hopping on and off your finger.The key to getting him to do something is repetition.When your budgie does something, give him a treat.The desired behavior will be reinforced.Be consistent.It will take quite a while until your budgie repeats on cue, so you need to focus on one instruction at a time.If you don't vary the routine, your budgie will learn quicker.
Step 6: You should teach your budgie to fly.
Don't be too close that your bird can just step up.It needs to move.Each time your budgie flies to you, give it a millet and bring your finger half an inch further.Bring your finger up and down each day.To teach your budgie to step off of the perch you are holding and onto its cage perch, use the same commands and steps as in the "step off finger" trick.To teach your budgie to fly, point to the perch and say "go back to your perch."When the budgie goes to the perch, reward it.
Step 7: You should teach your budgie towel training.
When your bird is sick or at the vet, wrap it in a towel and it will be more comfortable.Before you can teach your budgie how to be wrapped in a towel, you must allow him to explore the towel.If you want to let it walk onto the towel, lay it flat on the table with its favorite treat or toy.This is repeated many times.You can hold the towel while the bird is on it.Hold it in a way that will allow it to eat the treat or play with it.For a few minutes at a time, repeat this step.To hold the bird more firmly, curve the towel around it.Continue this process until your budgie is all wrapped up.You should gently stroke or extend the bird's wings whenever you do this.It will get used to having its feet and wings touched.Continue the Wrap up every day with a positive attitude and lots of treats.Your budgie will get used to being wrapped in a towel.
Step 8: The budgie needs to balance on a tennis ball.
It is time to make things more difficult once your bird knows basic directions.Allow the bird to play with a tennis ball in its cage for a few days.Try to put the budgie on top of the tennis ball while the feet look for balance.Offer a treat when the budgie tries to balance itself with its feet.Don't make your bird learn a trick for too long.It is enough for 10 minutes per day.The bird should have fun.The ball should not be in the cage.The exercise and balance on the ball will eventually be understood by your budgie.When holding the budgie on the tennis ball, be gentle.They are fragile.
Step 9: The budgie needs to climb a ladder.
Plastic bird ladders can be found in pet shops.It should be on the side of the cage.Your budgie will be interested in the ladder and will want to climb it.Every time the bird tries to climb the ladder, say the same word, like 'climb', to let it make the association between its actions and your order.When you order it, make your budgie climb.Don't be aggressive and be patient.Put your bird on the lowest part of the ladder.Release your budgie if you say the word associated with climbing.Don't put your bird on the lowest end of the ladder, but a few centimeters away.Until your budgie obeys without physical contact, you should increase the distance every day.
Step 10: Give your budgie a name.
It is easy to start with the animal's name.When you bring food, repeat your budgie's name.Say the name slowly and clearly if you want to speak in a high-pitched voice.Wait until the budgie is old enough.The bird should be at least three months old.Stick to one name if you have more than one budgie.At first, you don't want to make it hard.Don't forget to reward your budgie.Don't punish it if it fails to learn quickly.It will just distrust you because it doesn't understand right or wrong.
Step 11: Expunge its vocabulary.
budgies can learn over a thousand words over their lifetime.Pick the words you want to teach your bird.Your budgie will eventually connect the words with the actions.Say the budgie's name when you enter the room.When you give it food, point at the seeds.Take advantage of their language.When the bird is threatening, say angry.Say 'happy' when the budgie is resting on one leg.Simple sentences can also be said by your budgie.When your bird eats, say the bird's name.Say 'coco drinks' when it drinks.Don't insult your bird.The budgie might be embarrassing you in front of your guests.
Step 12: Give your budgie a song.
Having your bird singing a song is hilarious.The whole family will enjoy your budgie's ability to remember simple tunes.You can teach a song by singing it over and over to your bird.Don't try to teach the whole song, just a few seconds.Pick a song that you enjoy.Your budgie might sing it for a long time.When you are away, record yourself singing a song and play it to your bird.This is a very efficient way to teach a song.It is possible to teach words.The recording of a song might not be the best way to teach a bird.The instruments are likely to disturb it.
