no chirping? is he unhappy?

[deafilialunae]

I just got my first budgie, his name is Osiris.
I'm not sure if he is happy or unhappy...
He will get on my hand or finger without problem and will climb up onto my shoulder. I can also touch his head and chest without issue, but he doesn't play with his toys, and almost never chirps....

I used to live with a roommate who also had a budgie and her budgie was always loud and hyper....whereas mine would climb on me but not make any noise.....is this weird?

Am I doing something wrong?
Could he be sick?

Welcome to you and Osiris!

Do you have any clearer photos of him?

If you only just got him then he could just be quiet while he's settling in.

I agree with Marianne. How old is Osiris? How long have you had him for? Most budgies take a while to settle in, I have had a few new budgies that have been little statues lol but now I can't get them to shut up! Just give Osiris time to get used to you and his new home.

Can we see photos of the little guy I love photos.

Welcome to Forum

A new budgie will take from two days to two weeks to settle in.

I shouldn't have said I just got him, but he is my first budgie, I actually got him around late November....
That's why I was wondering if something was wrong.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I read that their coloring can be used to indicate their age, in which case, he has a good amount of coloring.

As for the pictures, I will definety be puttin more on. -^_^-
