I do not always where gloves only times when they are biting most.
They dont startle one another they actually seem to want each other which is what makes me so worried.
We have got them out of the cage by holding them and when they are out we let them wander a bit to settle and then hold out our hands. Is this wrong?
i know what you mean when you say budgies differ. Lorry is hopping from one finger to the next like a jetplane and the next minute hes biting your ear off. Mercedes although mostly calm and slow to bite can sit on one finger and stay there for hours!(well 10 minutes from what ive tried but still!)
Thank you for what you have suggested ill try it all next time i get the chance.
Any more help is very welcome plz keep posting
