Nutrition breeding cages and perches health


So I have 2 budgies their cage size is 13x13x13 I have been caring for them since 5 months and they fear me and their surrounding it’s the reason why I haven’t installed Any toys in their cage they fear everything surrounding them and it’s winter in India and I was trying to install cardboard on their cage sides but I didn’t because they are too afraid
There is only a swing in their cage and they bite me very aggressively especially male one and I provide them fresh water and millet daily and I don’t know their age my guess is 8-9 months and please help me with how to care for them in winter and daily grooming out of cage time supplement and daily veterinary care guide
Please provide me with a budgie care guide
And another request is that their cage is made of (jaali) basically a strong and tough steel wire and I started catching rust how to remove it and other requests and mentioned above and please tell me I am pure vegetarian and I was thinking to breed them without any non veg or egg or any non veg supplement should I breed them or not
Thank you
My name
Avi


Answer:

Hi,

We have all of the information you need on our website. However, your cage is not large enough and it is certainly not large enough for breeding. Please read through our website as it has caging information, diet, training – everything you are asking about. I will get you started with some links.
