1. Adjust your diet to ensure balanced nutrition

As they age, budgies' metabolism gradually slows down and their digestive system becomes fragile. Therefore, we need to provide elderly budgies with a nutritious and balanced diet that meets their physical needs.

It is recommended to increase high-fiber, low-fat foods, such as fresh vegetables, fruits, etc., while reducing high-calorie, high-fat foods, such as melon seeds, peanuts, etc. In addition, vitamins and minerals can also be properly supplemented to enhance immunity.

2. Pay attention to health and have regular physical examinations

Elderly budgies are prone to various health problems, such as respiratory diseases, digestive disorders, etc.

We need to keep a close eye on their physical condition and take them to the veterinarian for regular check-ups. Once abnormalities are found, they should be treated promptly to avoid worsening of the condition.

3. Create a comfortable environment and reduce stress

Elderly budgies are less adaptable to the environment and are susceptible to external disturbances. Therefore, we need to create a comfortable and quiet living environment for them, reduce noise, avoid frequent moving, etc.

At the same time, keep the room well ventilated and avoid excessive humidity or dryness.

Fourth, increase interaction and enhance feelings

Although the mobility of older budgies has decreased, they still need to interact with their owners in order to bond with them. We can set aside a certain amount of time every day to play and communicate with them, so that they can feel loved and warm.

In addition, you can also prepare some toys for them, such as hanging bells, colored balls, etc., to stimulate their curiosity and desire to explore.
