Hi, my name is JV. I was found by a kind person who took me in, but wasn`t able to care for me in the long term. I was a stray who had gotten a very dirty beak from scrounging. I`m kind of a shy boy, but I`m slowly getting used to being cared for by people. I am slowly getting used to eating pellets, but I still love my seed. I`d love to be your special companion bird.
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.
