Hi, I`m Hoppy, a male budgie who came to Mickaboo from a large aviary surrender in April 2022. Not much is known about me, and I came in with a group of 10 budgies. People are not in my comfort zone, I am a budgie suitable for an aviary. 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.
