I was living in a flock of 19 budgies in a backyard aviary in July 2022. Our owner asked Mickaboo to take us in as the aviary was not in good condition and was breaking down. We all had avian gastric yeast, trophs, feather mites and cladosporium! We had a few rounds of treatment at the vet.

Now in Oct 2023 I lost a lot of weight all of a sudden and got taken back to the vet. We`re not sure what`s wrong with me right now and I`m still being treated. All those infections in my past mean my health isn`t the best ever but hopefully I`ll get past this latest problem.
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.
