How to Choose a Good Budgie

Показать описание

Finding a budgie that will be a long-term happy member of your family takes some diligence on your part, as well as a willingness to walk away from a bird that's just not right for you.

Thank you Budgerigar Nation! 🏅

I would happily buy a disabled bird 😊He's still a fluff ball n deserves love .

Edit : It really depends on you . Most of these disable budgies don’t live long as they cant fly or their legs are bended . They don’t get enough exercise and become fat . They dont trust humans and are not playful. My 1 year old kiwi died 3 days ago .

I saw a bird who was very unhappy in the communal budgie cage at Petsmart. She didn't like all the other birds in the enclosure, and, by the appearance of her cere, it was obvious she had been there a while. I bought her, intending to make her life more fulfilling. She met my three other budgies - and still wants nothing to do with them. But she likes me and she's now free to fly about my bedroom - so I'm GLAD that I was able to provide her an environment that gives her freedom!

My macaw yells at me when I go to sleep bc it thinks I'm dead xD
edit: Woah 2 years later! hes still doing the exact same thing except its more subtle, hes definitely figured out that all living things need to rest.

I had worked at a Petsmart for nearly a year and no, Petsmart's Budgies (Parakeets) are not humanely bread or well raised. They are overproduced and some suffer from birth defects occasionally. This goes for the rest of the animals at pet stores as well. It's more expensive but I always recommend people adopt or buy animals from breeders where they tend to be more ethical.

I don’t care if a bird is good or bad. I would happily buy or adopt them all because they all deserve love. I already have 4 and they are so adorable :)

When i was younger i had a male brown budgie, home bred. Called him corky. What a talker he was, wow. His vocabulary was incredible. He was such a chatterbox that when we had visitors we had to put him in another room. Loved that bird.

So when i got my first budgies, i found a healthy blue one and a young green/yellow one. but the green yellow one had his wings cut off by the bottom part. I felt bad for that poor budgie but i got him anyway because even if they are "ugly", buy them no matter what for them to enjoy life.

Even the sad budgies need loving forever homes..

I used to have a parakeet that was friendly right when I got to hold her when I first met her. I named her Daisy because of her yellow appearance and she loved cuddles, splashing around in the water, and was a very active bird. I thought I'd never had a close friend than that bird. Sadly, at about five years of age, she passed away. About a week before that, I noticed a significant decrease in chirping and Daisy almost always stayed at the bottom of her cage. I tried to get her to a vet, but since I was going to New York the next day, I could not really do anything, but hope for the best. When I came back from my trip, my parents who looked after some of my pets informed me of her passing. It was horrible but I got through it and I have to say that that was the best pet that I ever had and will have. (This is way too proper of a paragraph, but I felt like writing something to get the stress off of my finals coming up in a couple weeks)

Choose your budgie not because of health but because of your inner voice and personal connection. If you have a good feeling with a scared budgie, then take it. You will be happy, giving him/her your love and comfort.

My birds are a weird case.

Flora(Female):The moody one.
Kiwi(male): The crazy one. He actually had dirty feathers on his head and looked sad, but after I bought him he became crazy and beautiful.
Ace(male): The new one. He is 4 months old and he sings like a demon.

They’re all different, Kiwi is a regular parakeet, Flora is an arlequín, and Ace is English.

And yes I named ace after an anime character.
