  • 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.

    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!

      We got two parakeets from pets mart and they’re doing great have had them just a couple weeks now. We thought we was purchasing two females as that’s what they had them marked turns out after watching alot of videos one is male and one is female. They’re still very young and wasn’t sure about one another in the begging now they sleep cuddled up and get along good. I haven’t tried to hold them yet however changing food bowls and water they did both jump on my arm today and wanted to come out. Talking to them at the cage daily in a soft sweet voice and placing a hand on the cage to let them know I don’t want to do them no harm has gotten them to come to me. Going to continue to take it slow and one day with be able to hold them and teach them 🥰 the whole family loves Miko and Mia 💙💖

    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.

Seeing all of those animals in tiny, over crowed, ill watered and fed cages broke my heart. I don't regret rescuing my parakeets for a second :)

The employees are friendly and knowledgeable too. I think the Petsmart near me is much better in caring for their animals. Not crowded, and the employees can be seen talking to them lol.

    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.

    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)

    A few months ago, one of my budgies passed away, so I went to my town's (only) pet shop to buy a new friend to Ícaro
    There was a budgie in a different cage from the others, but she looked very healthy and active
    I asked the owner why was that budgie alone, and he told me that she was born with malformed feet, and nobody had chosen her because of that (she had been on sale for more than one year)
    I felt bad for her, so I chose her
    She's been with me for 4 months already and she's SUCH A LOVELY LEMON PIE
    Sometimes she slips or fall because of her feet, but it hasn't stopped her from nothing, she's super playful and a great flyer
    Her name is Cleo, by the way

  • @aleksandarjovic9896
    @aleksandarjovic9896 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    All budgies are a good choice :) Treating your budgie well over it's lifetime is more important in determining how your budgie's behaviour will turn out, rather than how it appears to be acting in the cage during your short time you observe it at the pet store.
    My first budgie (mall pet store, likely getting their budgies from a mill) was effectively a random one: I pointed at the one I wanted, but when the employee opened the cage to catch it, they all immediately began frantically flying around in a cloud -- so I ended up getting the first one that got tired (baby bird couldn't fly anymore). So that random budgie ended up being one of the best pets I could have hoped for: loving, sweet, and full of personality.
    It's true that trying to get a budgie with good health is important... however I'd say that more for first time owners who want to minimize complications. (It's sad that sick ones will have a harder time finding a home, but hopefully someone is willing to care for them). Take note however, there are many pet stores which take budgies in from places that breed them rapidly to sell them. What this leads to is the owner not breeding ones that have healthy traits in the long term (since they cannot track and select for long term health), and these budgies are at risk of developing a chronic illness down the line (as my poor little guy eventually succumbed to after having a happy and healthy 7-8 years).

  • @LN-bn6ho

    I was passing by when I saw a disabled budgie, he was in a small cage with other budgies and they had no toys and only one bowl of water and food.
    I ended up buying the disabled budgie and now he's happier than ever! He's a little grumpy with his sisters and shy with other humans, I'm so glad he's safe now

And it's doing fine. Yes the trouble persists, as its nostrils are not really normal ( one is smaller than the other) but it's happy with its friends and hopefully living it's best life. I hope it lives his full life.

      Pick a human that is healthy. If a human is healthy, he/she should look Happy. Make sure the hooman likes you. To check this, check if the hooman is looking at you and showing its teeth, which is called smiling, and hoomans do it when they like something. Also make sure the hooman wants to touch you. If not, it seems the hooman is not interested in you, and won't take care of you. 😂

I love the crazy budgie because they got such mental strength and spark! And i never had an healthy bird you need lots of money to support it. They are the best once they know they are safs but sadly dont live very long and when they die it can leave you traumatised because rarely other people support you when you lost a friend that is an animal. But the pain is worth it, life is suffering and these bundless of joy bring a little light

      Oh my God, wait. This is an amazing coincidence. I have a budgie named Rocky and he is a male. I was planning on buying a female for him and call her Roxy so their names would be matching. And now that I read your comment you have a female like that. So funny, maybe our budgies are destined to be together xD

    I wouldn't care if the bird isn't right for me. All animals deserve a loving home. I love animals including parakeets

    I like what I have seen . All of the parakeets that I have seen talk real good.
