The problem is he has never been able to fly ,he just walks around on the floor, he seems really weak(he always has done) i am going to feed him up on a good vitamin food loads of fresh fruit and veg and i am also going to give him Clacivit. I have not had much to do with budgie's, but i know a few of you on the forum have some, anyone any ideas why he is like this, i think he is an albino, he is all white with red eyes and only a very slight trace of blue on his cere.

Budgeries four off I live in a mess of my own making !!! My name is I'll give you a clue	if he's red eyes then yes hes an albino, I have a budgie that sounds just like Bobby mine is called Budge here he is Posted Image he also can't fly he will give it a go but theres nothing there so he sort of glides then flops down, if he ends up on his back unlike a normal budgie he can not turn himself over. If he ends up on the floor and I dont go get him after a while he will walk back to the cage and climb the rope that I have fixed fro him on the side of the cage, he is a very good climber and can climb with out using his beak. I have never weighed him as hes not keen on being handled but I would guess that Budge would be in the very low 20 grm mark, he weighs a lot less than Squeak. If you look at his picture you will notice that his wings are very low, Budgies carry their wings high on their backs when Budge is sat on a perch his wings are touching the perch. The way I look at it is that Budge is happy always telling the others long whittering stories and hes the main preener out of the four of them he loves Frank and has never tierd of trying to Get it on with Sky so I just leave him be. I was given Budge as he wasn't wanted anymore he had never been out of his cage and was always on the skinny size so I am guessing its a gentic thing. Here is Frank you can seethe difference in wing placement Posted Image
