Help!
almost eight years ago i got 2 budgies. exactly a year ago yesterday one of them died. my remaining budgie seemed to be doing fine alone until the past couple months he seemed really lonely. he deffenitly didn't love attention but he didn't mind it. i would let him out to fly pretty often. he wasn't much of a biter more so just a nipper. last week i decided he needed a friend. so i went to the local pet store and bought a young budgie( old enough to be a pet but young enough i can't tell the sex) anyways my old budige loves the new budgie. i am keeping them in seperate cages for the time being but i let them play together for a few hours everyday. the second day of having a new budgie my old budgie started going crazy he bites ( me ) so hard now its unreal. he bites you to the point where he breaks skin & you bleed. he has had his beak so clamped onto me that i basically have to shake my hand really really fast in order for him to let go. i just don't understand whats wrong with him. even now i put my hand remotely close to the cage he hangs onto the sides and tries to get his beek through the bars to bite me. even when im feeding him he acts this way. i just really don't know what to do. if this keeps up im going to have to find somewhere else for him to live. i can;t let him corrupt my new budgie. shes addorable & seems to think im great.
somebody please help me.
