Having brought a parrot home, try to create for him silent and comfortable conditions that he calmed down after moving. A cage it is better to arrange at the level of your growth. It will help a bird to feel safe and will promote establishment between the pet and the owner of visual contact.
2. To tame a budgerigar, you should stock up with persistence and patience. Where and with whoever there lived your parrot before moving, he will be afraid of you, naturally. Try not to make sharp sounds and to approach it less in the first day. Necessary manipulations – water change, feeding, cleaning of a cage – should be carried out without haste and sharp movements.

Try not to move with fingers and do not try to force a parrot to take food. This period can take some time because birds instinctively are afraid of a human palm. If training in skill to take food from a hand drags on, try to be engaged in domestication of a bird in the mornings when she is hungry. After a while the pet will grow bolder and will take delicacy. As soon as the parrot begins without fear to sit down on a palm, time of the next stage of domestication - the first flight on the apartment will approach.
