Hi, I`m Junie, a young female budgie who came to Mickaboo in July 2022 as part of a group of 18 budgies rescued from a backyard aviary. I went to the vet, and we all now check out as healthy.
I am adjusting nicely to being in a foster home. My foster parent thinks I`m thinking about being ready to step up. Which is amazing, considering I grew up in an aviary, with no human contact!
My mates and I are ready for a forever home! Please won`t you consider me?
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.
