Why Does My Budgie Not Sleep?

If your budgie is struggling to sleep, several factors may be at play. Environmental stressors, such as bright lights, loud noises, or an unfamiliar setting, can hinder their ability to settle down. Budgies thrive in a calm and dark space for sleep; disruptions can lead to anxiety and restlessness. Additionally, an uncomfortable cage setup or lack of secure perches may cause sleep issues. If your budgie exhibits signs of discomfort, such as fidgeting or vocalizing excessively at night, it may indicate stress or even health concerns. Regularly evaluating their environment and making adjustments can significantly improve their sleep quality.
