Sky blue budgie with yellow face

Message from Owner

Boba is a young baby budgie I’ve been taming. He escaped between 9am-1pm today while I was at work. I’m devastated. He’s very sweet and is just a baby. If you see him around please give me a call. Thank you.

You must remain on foot searching. Inform your neighbours. Put up posters. Spreading awareness is key. Play budgie flock calls from a Bluetooth speaker or your phone to get their attention. It will likely end up at someone's feeder in the area, and will have to learn how to survive from the local sparrows. If you have another budgie and a proper carrier, that would be the best way to lure back to you. Please exhaust all efforts.

Posted on Lost and Found birds of the US https://m.facebook.com/groups/637611853061306/permalink/3663272500495211/?mibextid=Nif5oz To Boba’s owner: We are so sorry to hear your bird is missing. Here are some ideas to assist in your search. *Create a post on Pawboost, NextDoor & Ring, if you haven’t already. *During the daytime: use a wireless Bluetooth speaker to broadcast flock calls or your voice, shake treat bags or anything that might attract attention to food, put the cage out where it can be seen. *During the evening when searching is over, design & print off flyers with photo & contact information. These can be encased in a ziplock to keep weatherproof & posted in areas where allowed like parks, poles & any nearby gathering areas. Also drop off some at vet clinics, pet supply stores, anything within a 5 mile radius. Contact local shelters/rescues & even the police dept - they do pick up found/stray pets all the time. Make sure the world knows - neighbors esp ones that have bird feeders/baths/pools. Hand them out while searching the area. Join every local social media group there is. Run an ad in your local newspaper - some run one for free in lost & found (or cheap). Also check with local bird watcher groups - they’re always out & about. Flyers cannot be placed in mailboxes. *PLEASE CHECK WITH LOCAL ANIMAL SHELTERS & FILE A MISSING PET REPORT*
