Hi there

My names Gemma I live in Essex, UK.

I dont have a budgie as yet, but i am on a budgie breeders waiting list hopefully sept/oct time.

Ive requested a Violet budgie as its quite unique. I have quite a few questions in regards to cage positioning. But ill ask them in that relevant topics.

I had a budgie as a kid but i dont remember it at all only his name was charlie. Ive also had two cockatiels in the last 12 years and recently about 4 years ago i have a indian ringneck Parakeet and then my mum decided she wanted one and bought a yellow one. But i got pregnant with my daughter and moved into my then bfs family house and mum didnt have time for the birds so we took them back to the petshop. They were lovely but not hand tame at all to be honest i was scared of being bitten.

I am buying my budgie from about 5 weeks old and the breeder said there handtamable from this age so paying a little bit extra rather than buying from a pet shop.

I am so excited and my 3 year old daughter will love it. Although i ask her what colour bird she wanted and she keeps saying orange and ive never seen a orange budgie :S

Anyway im rambling on ( i have a habit of that) I'll be asking some questions in the next few months.

:)
