don't know why, but my parakeets really hate me or something. I have two of them. One I can get to perch on my finger for maybe 2 seconds, the other just lifts his foot and shakes it. Other times I try to get them to perch, they just automatically jump on the back of the cage. I have had them for about a month now. Is it because I have two of them? I can't tell if what sex they are either, one makes a ton of noise ( i am pretty sure that one is a boy), and the other is more mean( its cere is smooth but not blue). What should I do? How can I get them to like me more?

ok well if you have 2 cages it would be best to sperate them across the living room,if you have any mirrors dont let them look at it...now your parakeets wont automatically love you...you will have to chase them around the cage to get them out.once you get the bird(best way it to grab him)take him into another room and close the door.sit him on a perch and push on the belly...do that about 10 minutes a day to each bird.dont let them come in contact with each other or they will forget and not care.but yes its most likely because they are together.
