We picked up four (yes four) new budgies yesterday. Their owners had a cat which paid them rather too much attention, so wanted to rehome them. Not great photos at the moment because they are a bit jumpy. Anyway, we have decided that their names are Colin ( OP , I told you I'd eventually name one after you!) Iris Billy Daisy

Wow you don't do anything by halves They now start a lovely new life. Initially, I just wanted a friend for Bertie as sometimes he feels left out. The others go off to their cage in the evening and he's all alone. So I put an add on a website saying I'd 1 or 2 birds that needed a home. I got a message about these four and I felt sorry for them. Their cage was a little on the small side and a cat had knocked their cage over a few times. What could I do? This was their initial cage. Made it easier to carry home that it was so small. Paul carried them and I pushed Eve.

At last! A budgie named Colin. Well done for taling all four. Your flock will be back to wjat they were before. That cage is more than a wee bit small, the poor budgies were shoe horned in there.

Not surprised they are jumpy, after living with a cat. Welcome to Colin, Iris, Billy & Daisy!

hat is a better size Marianne. That would do fine if they had out time when quarantine is over. I thought that the Hamberely would be too big for my two remaining buds, but belive me they use ALL the space at times. The cage is always open when I am at home but they are quite happy to fly from perch perch and top to bottom.

Big smiley face here!!! You are a star Marianne Marlow, there aren't many people that would rehome FOUR budgies in one lot I'm sure. I love their names, what beauties they are. They will have such a great time with you and your gang. Just wonderful.
