Good, he's probably beginning to settle in and feel more safe and secure in his new surroundings. As for the water, if I've seen mine drink 3 times since I've had them it's probably a lot.Smile They just don't drink very often. But, be sure he knows where his water dish is and that his water is always clean. As Shirin suggested, a couple little extra cups for food (or in this case water) near his perch will help you be certain he knows where to get a drink when he wants one.

Thats great! If she is happy and playing then I would imagine she is keeping herself hydrated and just drinking when you're not looking, hehe.

thats great! good luck!

budgies come from the hot grasslands of Austraila, where they have to survive droughts. So they just don't drink that much.

I've had my budgie for 3 yrs, and I've only seen her drink ONCE Shocked (I don't think she even drank, just dunked her head in the water)
