I tried to put get him on my hand today & he doesnt want too it seems that he has lost all trust he is a very nervous birdie I have to clean him out later and try again! But does anyone else's budgie hang upside down on their perch for ages?? Sorry to butt in on your chat rlf993/Hezz - but just wanted to add here that Mont does the same thing but from the top of her cage. She does it at night time, just before I fully cover her for the night - not sure but can't they lock their tendons off? She just hangs there looking like a mannequin?! But she comes down in the end

Are you sure yours weren't brought up by a bat? (Joke) ;D ;D Mine will do this if there is food worth getting to. So it seems most will even if only for a short period, others don't mind "hanging around, upside down"

I'm happy to hear you are making progress with Kato Just take things nice and slowly with him, it can take time for budgies to trust us humans, they aren't like dogs or cats, they prefer their own kind to humans but you just need to teach Kato that he can trust you Do you have millet sprays? Try holding part of one on the palm of your hand and then put your hand in front of him. He will learn to associate your hand with yummy treats Let us know how you get on.
