Next week, I will be adopting a young Parakeet/budgie from a family member who is no longer able to take care of it. And now that I have a lot more free time, this is something I can and want to do.

I have never owned a bird, Ive did some birdsitting( xD lol that term)  now and then many years ago, but thats not even the same( I have however owned..a lot of diffrent kinds of pets in the past xD )

. I have a week to read and get to know this bird species, and ive seen some pretty informative videos already! Both the pros and cons. And now I want to hear your stories, :D and ofcourse if you have a picture of your bird, I would love to see that aswell ^^

How do you care for your bird, and what have you experienced that is both good and bad? Do you have some helpfull tips to share, post it all ^^

Not sure what the one I will be adopting looks like, or what gender it is, but I will find out next week. But I am hyped for a noisy companion <3

Congratulations! From the picture you posted on your profile, the budgie is a boy :D
If he has dark colored eyes, he's about 1-3 months, brown-ish eyes, 4-8 months, and anything lighter is 8 months and older :D
budgies love millet, company and flying around. Budgies show their affection if they start grooming your hair, it's called mutual preening. Budgies live about 10- 15 years. A budgie is usually hyper, curious, and fun loving; if there is and sudden change in personality or weight or change in general, make sure you go to the vet :D
CAREFUL WITH THE POOP!
