I love your Charlie videos! I just think it's amazing that you were able to teach him so much, and that he had an accent. It was so cute! I'm so sorry he passed away. I know what it's like to lose a friend like that. He seemed like a great bird, though.

hey there
your budgie charlie is beautiful!!
i have a Budgie myself his name is Astro boy, hes still quite young.
i have a few questions for you if you don't mind to answer them for me

-how did u get charlie to speak so much, astro only says a few words, like pretty boy and give us a kiss, and he doesnt say anything else even though i speak to him alot.
-Astro is quite playful and wants to play with everything all the time including my hair and fingers when i am playing with him, is this normal for a young budgie and will he grow out of it?

thank you
Kira

I won't comment on the individual videos but I do want you to know that I absolutely love your Budgie videos. So I'm subscribing to you ;)
It isn't that much of a trick to teach a budgie to talk - it's so clear in your videos that all it takes is time & love. Thanks for sharing your budgies ;)

Those videos of Charlie are so cute! I just got a budgie and I'm trying to teach him to say "Que bonito pajarito" which is Spanish for "What a pretty birdie!" His name is Henlee, after a feral budgie my mum once trapped in a cage.
