He must have been deaf as well as no sense of smell!

Time to get him checked out by some metal experts as his brain has flown the coop!

Hehe, we had three budgies when I was a kid, but nature obviously was busy elsewhere. Think we were lucky.

This is the true "bird man"

We had a budgie that lasted for almost 20 years !!! That thing wouldn't die ! It also learned to talk and must have had a vocabulary of about 100 words. It used to annoy my mother and father. It used to live in it's cage in the kitchen. Whenever one of them would get on the phone out there, or have people over for coffee or whatever, the bird would try to join in on the conversation and just start trying to overtalk whoever was talking. So you would get on the phone, and the bird would start talking... then it would start going louder and louder until it was successfully outshouting you (and the funny thing was.. it wasn't bird talk.. it was english !!) Thankfully, the bird never learned any curse words.
We also had a cat and my father taught the budgie to say "HERE KITTY KITTY KITTY !!" as well. However, our lazy cat wanted nothing to do with the bird. Going after a fast little thing that would claw it's eyes out if it got too close (Yes... the bird would totally hold it's own against the cat when out of the cage). It was just too much effort for the cat. Heck... jumping up on the sofa was too much effort for that cat.
Seriously, I've never seen a budgie live that long or learn such a vocabulary before or since.
