Budgies + Canaries?

[Kelly27]

I have a budgie called Greengrass. Even though she is older she is fairly active. On occaisons she will break out of her cage and break into my canaries - Krystal - cage. Krystal also shares with our bengalese finch - Bubu. Greengrass will break into Krystal's cage and just sit on the perch. Her seed dish is full in her own cage and i cant understand why she feels the need to break out. Anyone have any ideas?

Maybe she's lonely?

She has never lived on her own. She may have been on her own for a while when we first bought her. But now we have owned her for about 5 years and she has always lived with another budgie.

Is she living with another budgie now?

[Kelly27]

Yeah, we recently moved her out of her old cage who she shared with a female - Chrissie - into a cage with a male. Her + Chrissie would fight alot and as she is older it affected her more.

Oh, well I'm stumped!

maybe she just likes being with many birds, more of a flock life than just in a pair :) have you thought about putting the cages near eachother and leaving them open to allow them to feel like a flock? mine love it! (budgies and finches)

Great idea I think the more the merrier...with birds of the same beeks:)

I could'nt do that because Greengrass is quite an aggresive bird towards anything. I have to think of Bubu and Krystal's safety.

But the cages are always right next to one another.
