In nature, the Budgerigar Bird moving around to search water and food like other nomadic birds.


Fig 01- The Beauty of Budgerigar Bird on the ground

This bird has three well known common names, they are shell parakeet, budgie and common parakeet.

The scientific name of Budgerigar Bird is Melopsittacus undulatus, and native to Australia regions.

The bird is popular as pet in many parts of the world with several reasons include its ability to imitate human speech, small size and low cost.

This budgie is easy to breed, the bird may breed in captivity and then the baby bird in pairs.


Fig 02- Birds love to consume sunflowers seed.

Budgerigars love to consume seeds such as sunflowers, chia seed, safflower, flaxseed and others.

However, when we tried to give seeds, the bird flew to the tree, then flew away.

Have you seen this kind of bird?

  2. We had one for a very long time. It was even caught by our cat a couple of times, but always survived. It was up high in its cage too. Thanks for the info on this breed.

  10. It is a special bird! I think the bird was simply feeling skittish and was not comfortable being approached.
