I am asking myself if i have done the right thing in getting another male. Not that i would give up little Harvey, but im not sure if they really like each other that much. Although they do the sweet nibbling beak thing, nd talk to each other. They also get ratty with each other alot. The other day Graham was hanging onto the perch upside down, while Harvey was actually on him, and being nasty. Its not one is worse than the other, they are both as bad. I do feel there is not any real bonding going on, but what am i expecting? When they are out, they are always followng each other around, but Graham tends to edge away alot. Since little piggy Harvey is getting quite solid, he gives Graham as much as Graham gives him. Its like a beak boxing match in the cage at times, and can be very spiteful. Nasty little critters! lol Would another help, who it be unfair to get a hen? i have even considered two hens. Is it still early days? is this the norm? Worried Scully

Sounds pretty normal for 2 budgies Scully. They are always picking on each other, no matter how bonded they are. They act like bored little school children. If there are no injuries, then I really wouldn't fret.

Thats normal! You should hear the noise Wiz and Merly make and they're different sexes. They are sooo nasty to each other yet they ahve heaps of smoochies. Don't stress.

Yep, I would agree with all the above. The only real problem I can see is if Graham can't fly properly,can he get away from Harvey o.k?

Sometimes thats a problem for Graham, Julie, but not often. Natsy little crits these Budgies! but they are having a bonded day today. They have been so funny oh well we will keep to two, unless we move this year, then its an avairy for me Harvey nibbles me, but hes so gentle. Ive yet to have a peck off him. thanks for your thoughts all
