          1. Your budgie has been…
            Your budgie has been traumatized and special consideration of his mental state needs to be given. It will take time for him to get over it. For now, a night light would help reduce the stress your pet is under. It is the only solution that makes sense, other than having him artificially sedated by your vet with medication – which would be expensive, in addition to potentially coming with dangerous side effects. There are some calming bird supplements as well (ie., Avitech AviCalm Calming Supplement). That might help.

              thank you for your response. I have seen the Avitech Avicalm product but unfortunately this cannot be shipped to the Uk.
