Originating in South America, Asia and Australia common parakeets include the popular Budgie Parakeet, Quaker Parakeet and Indian Ringneck Parakeet.
Well socialized parakeets make great companions, often become very good talkers and do well in an aviary or home. Not very loud, the parakeets call is a pleasant sound.
It is important to know that some states do not allow the Quaker Parakeet to be kept as a pet. California is one of those states due to their agricultural threat. Because of their small size, 6 in 10 parakeets will escape their homes making it very important to take safety measures with windows and doors for your parakeet.
Budgies make a wonderful "starter" bird for new exotic bird owners, especially children. Even a parent raised budgie can be tamed to become a good companion. The variety of colors and patterns on the budgie parakeet offer a small, affordable pet bird in a choice of packages.
