After hatching  the chicks are fragile, have closed  eyes and no feathers on them.

And by 9-10 week these chicks could be seen flying and feeding  themselves.

10 facts about budgies!!!!!!!

1: The original budgies were greeny-yellow in colour, and from this, other colours developed. The second colour was all-yellow, which was bred from a genetic mutation. The first blue budgie wasn’t seen until 1878!

2: Budgies can move and see out of each eye independently of the other one, which is known as having monocular vision.

3: A budgie can have up to 3,000 feathers in total across their whole body.

4: Budgies grind their beaks when they are happy and relaxed, similar to cats and purring!
The bones of budgies (and most other birds that are capable of flight) are hollow, and filled with air sacs rather than bone marrow.

5: Budgies have more vertebrae in their necks than humans do, allowing them to swivel their heads up to 180 degrees, or allow them to face backwards!

6: Budgies can only afford to lose between 10-12 drops of blood before their blood loss becomes fatal.

7: The skeleton of female budgies gains density during the breeding season, as she stockpiles calcium to support breeding. This can make the female budgie gain around 20% of her bodyweight during this time!

8: The shells of a budgie’s eggs are covered with pores, which allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to enter and exit the shell.

9: The patterns of light and the shortening and lengthening of the days tells the female budgie when it is breeding season. Artificial lighting can interfere with this.

10: In mammals such as humans, our lungs themselves expand and contract as we breathe, as air flows in and out. In budgies, the muscles of the chest cavity itself expands and contracts, to force air in and out.

Facts about Cocktails

1:It's normally the male cockatiel that is the best at whistling and singing. They use their vocal skills to attract females in the wild so they are generally better at it.

2: A cockatiel won't like it if you approach them with your hand over it's head. It may feel threatened by this and make their displeasure known to you.

3: You might think that your cockatiel is a noisy so-and-so, they are actually quieter than most parrots. So when your cockatiel is excited and makes lots of noise, just think about how quiet it is compared to other birds!

4: Cockatiels need quite a lot of sleep. You'll need to make sure that your cockatiel gets 12-14 hours of snoozing every night - ideally in the dark and quiet.

5: Cockatiels are very sociable birds. They like attention, contact and to be kept busy.

6:The lifespan of an average cockatiel in captivity is around 15-25 years. If you are thinking about getting one as a pet, it's obviously a long term commitment.

7: The head crest of a cockatiel will change angle depending on it's mood! It's normally vertical when the cockatiel is excited or alarmed, and flat to it's head if it's angry.

8: Females are normally slightly more aggressive than male cockatiels. Mind you if you look after your cockatiel well you shouldn't see their angry side!

9: Cockatiels in the wild are native to Australia.
