Calling All Parakeet Lovers!
The Australian budgerigar, also known as "budgie" or English parakeet or keet, Melopsittacus undulatus, is probably the most common parakeet. First discovered in 1891.
Many different species of parakeets are bred and sold commercially as pets, the budgerigar being the third most popular pet in the world.[
Parakeets breed better in groups, but are usually fine breeding in pairs. Having other parakeets encourages a pair to breed, which is why breeding in groups is more successful. However, many breeders choose to breed in pairs because that way they know which parents produced any given birds. Parakeets produce about 6-8 eggs if the parakeet successfully lays eggs.
A really great way to enjoy parakeets is to enjoy a parakeet pendant, or maybe 2 or 3?
