Tapping hands?

Question
Hi Austin,

I have been attempting to get my male budgie used to my hand by changing his food and water, and sitting my hand in his cage. Lately he slowly walks up to my hand while im holding it still and licks it. He basically sticks out his toungue and taps my hand a few times then walks away. Is he curious and what does it mean?

Also do you have any websites or information on how to get him to trust me?

Thankyou,

Naomi  

Answer
Hey Naomi,

Sorry for the late response, all experts was down most of the day yesterday. Well the budgie is just checking you out, and is curious to see what you are. Give him time, because budgies take a LONG time to earn trust towards you. It took my budgie 2 years. I am not trying to disgurage you, don't worry all bguies are different! Well here is a good website about budgies: http://www.budgieresearch.homestead.com/10steps.html
Good Luck!!!!
