@mrA991s just don't put in a breeding box/nest. if you have a male and a female,they will still bond and preen but they won't ever lay eggs if they don't have a place to put them. :) please check out my videos! expertvillage is completely wrong!!!
@tylerpianoman I agree. it just told us which boxes are avalable. I think they need to change the title so they don't confuse people. I watched it thinking that he would eventually show us how to make a box, but NOO. he never did. I don't think he knows anything about parakeets.
My budgies keep on chewing the nest boxes I buy for them and now I'm broke because I bought too much and I don't have the time to build one myself. Can anyone answer?
@LukeWifi buy cuttlebones, it will give them something else to chew on.. I remember one day I ran out of cuttlebones & my cockatiels destroyed a corner of their wooden nesting box.
@LukeWifi the only nestobx to use is the wooden nestbox the open wicker is a canary nest the covered one is a finch nest the dimensions need to be 6-8 inches tall and about 5 inches wide and 5 inches deep. Its called a parakeet nestbox. This will be suitable for American parakeets if they are English Budgies you need a LOVEBIRD nestbox
Don't buy a nest. Budgies naturally nest in holes in trees. They need a box!
Also, you can't check on the babies if you have a covered nest. You need one where you can check on the babies, because if one dies, or an egg starts to rot, it can kill any of the other babies in the nest.
You actualy want to keep any dud eggs in the nest, it wont harm the babies and it gives them neck and body support as well as something to stop the momma bird from crushing the new baby.
Well, for a while yes. But when the babies are bigger, the dud eggs start to rot. The rotten eggs can seriously damage the babies, because the shell gets soft, and the fluid inside the egg can leak out.
what a p**ck, why does most people that work in pet shops know nothing about animals, how the hell do they get the jobs. . . the first nest is for canaries, the second and third are for small finches ect. none of them are suitable for breeding budgies. . .!!
quick ? when u buy a parakeet nest r da male an female both supposed to fit in da nest box or just da female cuz my female parakeet fits in da hole but my male parakeet looks like it wants to go in but cant fit plz someone answer?
My female budgie Kiwi, I bought her a year and a half ago. She was perfect. And now she has missing toes, and her nails grow in a very wierd way, I try to trimm when they get to long. And her beak is crooked. Her top beak grows really long, I think it's too long for her to use the cuttle stone. It's probably dangerous to trim it. What can I do.
my parakeet loves his nest. Its not wooden, it looks like that enclosed one he showed 2nd. I put it in at night when its time for him to sleep and take it out in the morning so he doesnt stay in it all day and be lazy and so he can get a decent amount of exercise :)
i need help i have 2 budgie birds and a nest a pretty big one and i can't attach it inside the cage only if i open the cage's door and attach it there so they can get in.and they don't get in there what should i do ?please help
@tina123tina123 you need to cut wires out of the side to attach the nestbox to the cage. so the nestbox is mounted on the outside and not in the cage itself. Hang it by attaching it with 2 S shaped hooks on the top right and left corners so it hangs on the outside then see what wires need to be cut out so they can go in and out of it.
If the videos suck so bad, stop watching them. And no, parakeets don't NEED boxes for nests. They'll nest on the bare bottom of the cage if they want to.
for nesting they need a hard wooden nest box with a sliding concave,and they will manage to chew THAT abit too,this video is rubbish,nothing is true in it at all,that guy needs a slap
I am disgusted with the lack of knowledge. The first is for canaries and some finches. It is not well constructed and needs extra support. The second is for finches. The third is made for parakeets, lovebirds and many finches will build nests inside of them. I have yet to see a good video from "Idiot Village."
Why is this called "how to build a nest" when he is only showing us how to incorrectly purchase a nest? This was a waste of time. I'm sure this dude knows a lot about parakeets but this video makes him look like a jackass.
Parakeets and lovebirds would just chew the first two into toothpicks! Just goes to show you don't listen to pet stores, its all about the profit and not the animals.
This doesn't show anything about how to build one. Just shows how to throw money away at them in the store. Disliked good sir.
