please help me, i have 2 pet budgiies and yesterday i saw a indian myna sitting on there cage! i scared it away and today i saw a spotted turtle dove on the cage and the indian miners walking under the cage
so i would like to know if indian mynas can hurt my budgies (allthough we put up a flyscreen type materal around for butcher birds)also why was the pigeon sitting on the cage? and what should i do about it all?
thank you
Gidday Bec, I used to breed budgies I had around 300 of them and I used to have doves and sparrows around all the time,they are just chasing seed and wont hurt your birds
As for the Butcherbirds I never had them hurt my budgies but they did kill heaps of my finches
The main culprit I used to get was a Collared Sparrowhawk
So no need for you to worry, just make sure that the wild birds can't foul the water or seed of your budgies,that could cause you some problems
Oh I meant to say that the Indian Mynahs will not hurt your birds either Bec :)
Thank you Tassie, i was getting a little bit OVER worried about them. You did have alot of budgies WOW! my mum used to breed them and she only had 15! she had other birds too though (lorrys, amazons, etc)
thank you again
I love birdiees
