Hello, I`m Barnard, a boy budgie with very light gray bars on my head and wings. I was surrendered to Mickaboo at the end of 2020 with 6 of my budgie brothers and sisters. My people had to give us up due to a house fire. I am an aviary bird, so not tame at all. But I`m here to just be a budgie and make happy noises with my pals in YOUR forever home! (I may or may not be pictured in the photo, there`s sadly a lot of aviary budgies currently being fostered by Mickaboo volunteers, and it`s difficult to take a photo of only one!)
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.
