Budgerigar @ budgie

Budgie 1st Batch aku.

Assalamualaikum..

Kat atas tu burung budgie batch pertama aku.. baru mau test2 untuk peliharan... insyaAllah kalau ada rezki aku akan tambah lagi utk mempercepatkan pembiakkan nya.. Budgie ni family parrot.. cuma saiz badannya kecil kalau dibanding dengan parrot lain... kalau yg besar skit sama spesis tu dipanggil english budgie... burung ni mmg sesuai sangat untuk dijadikan "pet" kepada yg baru mau try bela haiwan peliharaan... lebih kurang macam aku la.. heheh..  so, dua ekor ni masih muda lagi jd boleh la aku try jinakkan.... lgpun banyak tips2 bleh dapat terus dari internet, dari segi penjagaan, makanan, cara nak bagi jinak dan banyak lg la.. taip ja trus keluar.. hehe

Di bawah ni aku nak kongsi sikit info yg aku dapat pasal budgie ni kat internet.... tapi dalam bahasa omputih.. kita layan ja...zasssss.
