My mum was on the verge of telling me off for neglecting my son - Woody the Budgie. The one who named Honey - Honey, because her tummy was golden brown like his honey ring!! this is when he was only a few months old and he's a bit bigger in this one - taken earlier this year So there, that's the whole Butler family!

Does he talk - well not as much as others Ive had, there is too much going on in the house to concentrate on one word. He does say boy though sometimes. He is in love with Belle (a bell), has the lounge and dining room as his play areas, constantly bombing around the place. He is very very tame though. He flies down to his sisters cage and sits on the outside. Honey also kisses him and lets him sit on her back!!

Nope, he's named after Woodstock (from Snoopy). We really wanted an all yellow one, but at the time they had him, but he's cute in his Heinz 57 way!!

If you know more than they have wings, a beak and the females lay eggs, you know more than me!
Do you have to trim his claws? Or talons, whatever they're called lol.

Anna, you MUST go to this site: www.talkingbudgie.comThis guy was on a late night radio talk show I listen to here called "Coast to Coast". These little guys apparently have a LOT to tell us! The audio tapes were scary with them talking about the tsunami and the "end times" etc.!

They live for about 8 years, but one of mine was 13 when he died.
As for biting, if you dont tame them they do bite, but even when you have tamed them they still sometimes bite - it depends on their mood etc!! Woody normally bites Daddy, no matter what, as for Mummy, well only if he's cheesed off and then he's sorry and normally makes friends straight away!

Yep, we do them with the same scissors as the girls! They normally get them all done together!!
Kitty - will have to have a look at that website!

I think Merry found one or one flew in her house one day. Not sure ... Merry, where are you? Very lovely looking and I'll keep my fingers out of the way.

I thought I ought to tell you all that for Christmas this year Woody seems to have had a personality transplant. Spending two weeks home with him has made him very placid and cant leave me alone now!...
He loves his sisters even more and is constantly looking down at them and even visits their cage!
