Such a lovely name, Holly, wonder if you can teach him to say 'Goy'?
Welcome little one :~))

He`s a lovely colour and you`ve chosen a smashing name, good luck with teaching him to talk, will you allow him freedom of your room sometimes ?, we used to have a budgie but afraid we cant now, too many cats Holly but really used to love them, they are good company ,Have fun...

My dad used to have dozens of budgies! He often let them all out of their big cage & let them fly around the living room for an hour or two! Then we all got rolled in to catch them & get them back into the cage again! What a time we used to have!!!

My wife & I had three in Spain & we let them out of their cages for very long periods. My wife liked the way they would climb all over the table with her study books & demand attention! One especially, a blue male, called (no surprises for guessing!) Bluey, would nibble her pens while she was trying to write notes!

He his lovely, my sister has a male budgie and he talks your head off, he also plays with the grandchildren with a budgie ball on the floor, the kids will roll the balls on the floor and Sam the budgie goes get it and bring it back for them to roll again for him.

He's gorgeous Holly. The boys are the good talkers I believe. How exciting. My Auntie always had blue, boy budgies (each named Bluey) and they always talked, fascinating.

Thanks from me and Sky for all your lovely comments.... i have spent today doing the garden and putting together a new cage for sky which i bought on ebay its great and has lots of room for him to move about in......
years ago i had a yellow/green budgie called beauty..... he lived till 8 or 9..and talked a lot..... i keep calling sky beauty... even though its been 10 years since i had him....
the cage came flat packed.... say no more but my son and i got it all together and put sky in it.....he had been in a much smaller cage...
in a week or so i shall let him out to fly round....great fun...i shall have to make sure he doesnt land on Ella... or she may bite him....
