I have been in contact with a breeder about a hand fed baby Budgie and went to meet them yesterday! This is just her website photo, I didn't take any while I was there but I am so excited to bring her home in a few weeks! Also, since getting a few pointers from her and seeing an experienced bird person handling her birds, I have made amazing progress with Willow. So much birdie excitement! Had to share it. My husband might be tired of bird talk.  Attachments:

Thanks! Maybe you will someday! I am looking forward to seeing if it will be much different it will be than my non hand fed one.

She's so precious, EmilyJean! And that's wonderful about getting great pointers for interacting with Willow and the progress you are already seeing. Woohoo!! Yeah, I think our significant others are often overwhelmed with talking birds as much as we want to talk birds. Just one of the many reasons this forum is so important to me.

Creamino is what someone on the budgie Facebook page said. I didn't ask the breeder yet so I am not sure.

We wouldn't know if it is a creamino yet. The yellow face mutation would not spread over her body until her first molting. It will be interesting and exciting to watch her grow up! I hope you can give us lots of pictures of her over the coming months!

Ooo well that is exciting that his or her final look will be a mystery for awhile. I will certainly keep updating with photos!

Emily, you inspired me to look for a breeder that sold hand tamed budgies. Unfortunately in Missouri no one gives a hoot about taming budgies  Which gives me an idea of being the first budgie breeder in all of Missouri one day |
