Hi, I`m Doug, a dark green male budgie who came to Mickaboo in July 2022 as part of a group of 18 budgies rescued from a backyard aviary. I`m getting checked at the vet right now. Stay tuned for more!
In nature, parakeets (budgerigars) live in large flocks. A single bird in a cage spends much of his/her life being lonely because humans have things they must do that take them away. We therefore will only adopt a single parakeet to a household if there is already at least one parakeet living there. Otherwise, parakeets must be adopted in groups of two or more.
