    i don't get my birds mating habits

    i have a female (3 years) and a male( 5 or 6 months). my female flirts with him sometimes (i think) she snuggles into his face and makes really pretty noises. his reaction to this is to run away or to bite her. now my male is a very nice budgie normaly.. he has never biten me and is tame. and my female is normaly the not so nice one biting and squaking at everything, (she is not tame). My female is certinly the dominant one. but i think she secretly has a crush on him but he doesn't trust her. has anyone else had an experience with a situation like this because what i have read on the net is that the male is normaly the dominant one. And does age play a factor in all this? ping 2

    Re: i don't get my birds mating habits

    okay I'm not an expert in budgie bredding nor have I ever bread budgies but I do know that females are usually the more dominant one in a pair. Which is why getting a fem/fem pair of budgies for companions is not recomended. Also female budgies tend to bite more and bite harder than the males. (me thinks it all the hormones us females have lol :haha )

    umm back to the topic.

    your male sounds too young to my knowledge to breed yet. This could be why he's all scared of her advances and coy girly moves *girls have coodies* okay dont mind me its been a weird day...

    so in a few months i think around a yr (correct if I'm wrong :smile) he will be more willing to put up with her.

    good luck hope some more experienced ppl can also help you out

    Christa
