here is a good place to find out how to get a baby budgie
there a lot of fun & much easier to train
The following 4 pointers are a good way of knowing the age of your budgie. Some prefer young birds since they are easier
to tame.
A- Check the forehead. Young Budgies have stripes extending down to their ceres, while adult Budgies loose
the striping and have a clear forehead. Exception: Some pied birds are born with clear foreheads. Always check other pointers.
B-
Young Budgies are born with no iris ring, they have big black eyes. As they mature, an iris ring becomes obvious gradually.
Mature Budgies will have a white iris ring around their eyes. Exception: Recessive pied Budgies don't get white iris rings.
Always check other pointers.
C- Ceres: Young Budgies ceres are pinkish, almost translucent. Adult Budgies have well
marked cere colors. It is blue in males and chalky white to brown in females. Exception: Recessive pied and ino males retain
their translucent pink cere. Always check other pointers.
D- Throat spots: Baby Budgies have small, irregular throat
spots. Adult Budgies have round well defined spots. Exception: Some pied, and some color variations don't get throat spots.
Always check other pointers.
