You bought a budgerigar and are wondering what to name your new pet. First you need to find out what gender he is. If the bird is older than 3 months, then it is very easy to do this, since the color of the beak gradually changes in young parrots. In an adult bird, its color is already more saturated. In females, the beak is grayish-white or brown, while in males it is bright blue.
Instructions
Step 1
The older your pet is, the smarter and more vulnerable it is, the more difficult it is to endure separation and get used to a new place. When choosing a nickname, start from the fact that it is easier for parrots to pronounce whistling, hissing, growling sounds. Choose a short name that will appeal to all family members. Nick, Fritz, Bruce, Dick, Boy, Hera, Gigi, Kuzya, Kesha, Mitya, Tima, Fedya, Yasha, Gosha - these are simpler names, suitable for a parrot of any size and color.
Step 2
Tishka, Kopusha, Motley, Shurshun, Shalun - these funny nicknames will appeal to your favorites because they can pronounce them themselves. Remember, choosing a name is not an easy matter. You will have to use this name all the time, and the bird will have to respond to it. Please note that parrots can easily reproduce words with hissing sounds, as well as the letters "k", "p", "a", "y". You can choose a nickname by the name of your favorite movie hero, for example, Robinson, Tarzan, Captain, Caesar, Martin, Figaro.
Step 3
The name of the bird can emphasize some of its features. Nicknames such as Arnold, Sylvester, Felix, Ronaldo, Aragorn, Aristarchus, Jackson, Napoleon, Nikusha, Ricardo, Rubik, Fidel, Churchill, Eugene are suitable for medium and large parrots, but it will be difficult for a bird to reproduce such a name. It is suitable for a male who is able to speak faster than a female.
Step 4
Alex, Borya, Kuzya, Chick, Yusha, Chucha, Ollie, Motya, Koko, Zheka, Hedgehog, Bonya, Ara - these short nicknames will please not only you and the children, but the parrot, he will quickly get used to such a nickname. Remember that you should not call the bird a nickname, everyone should have their own.
