Hi I`m Clio!

I came into Mickaboo in July 2022 as pary of an a group of 19 budgies that were rescued from a backyard aviary. The aviary didn`t have clean water and as it was an old structure there were a lot of gaps that meant a lot of budgies ended up lost outside and unable to find an easy way back in for food and protection. We had feather mites, protozoan parasites and avian gastric yeast, and cladosporium infections. We had a lot of medications the first few weeks!

We have been grouped into smaller single sex groups in foster homes and adjusting to a safer life in nice clean cages. We`re ready to find our forever homes now.


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.
