Hello All,
I'm new to the forum. I am the happy new owner to a Budgie name Jo. We believe her to be a female who is 9 years old according the the band she wore. She landed in my husband's grandmothers back yard back in May. When she found us she immediately hoped on my finger and we immediately went down picked up a cage and supplies and brought her home. I took her to a aviary vet the next day who advised me that she was undernourished. She was 25 grams at the time with a large overgrown nostril. Since then she has gained 10 grams weight and the growth on her nostrils has been removed by her doctor . She is chatty, very tame and loving. We are so happy to have her join our family. I look forward to being a part of a community where I can get information on how to properly care for this beauty.

Hi and welcome. It sounds like Jo came from a family who loved her; please tell me you tried to find where she came from as I am sure they are missing her dreadfully. Failing that, she is lucky to have found herself a second home with you.

This is a picture of Jo. Oh yes we checked with neighbors but did not have any luck. She is fully flighted so there is no telling how far she was from her home. The only info that was on her leg tag was date of birth from what the Vet said.
