mate parakeets
Do you have a pair of parakeets? male and female? well you need my advice. you may see your birds pecking and squaking at eachother. well it is nothing bad, they are just being love birds like husband and wife so don't freak out when you see them like this. if you ever want to breed them you can give them a bird house in their cage, and some hay at the bottom of the cage. that way they can build a nest, lay eggs, and have babies. once they have babies you can sell them to make money.

parakeet??
you know what? parakeets aren't really parakeets. the type of parakeet you have as a pet is acculy called a Budgierigar! but you don't have to call them that. you can call them parakeets OR budgies. it is short for budgierigar. parakeets originaly came from Australia.

Bird Tips
Dear bird lovers, you probably don't know this but you need help taking care of you parakeet! so read below for helpful tips for you and your pet parakeet. Tip#1: feeding your bird can be harder than it looks. you may just think that all you have to do is fill the seed bowl every week. Well there is more than just that. if your bird only eats seeds it won't get all the vitamins it needs.so give him apples, spinich, oranges, lettce, carrots, and soak their seeds in olive oil before you give it to them. also this may sound weird but even if their food bowl looks full it may not be. because parakeets take the husks off of the seed. so it could be just seed husks. Just to let you know parakeets can eat chili peppers! they can't taste the spicieness of them so you can feed them peppers. Tip#2: to teach them words repeat the word over and over until he squaks it out. some words may take loger than others because parakeets can't pronounce their L's very well. so go easy on them. after you teach them quite a few words you can teach them phrases and songs. Tip#3: fist i would teach them words. but after your bird learns some you can teach him tricks! be sure you have his favorite treat in your hand! just like words reapete the trick over and over until he finally understands. when he does what you tell him reward him with a treat. it may take months to teach them a trick. i would teach him easy tricks first like climbing up a bird sized rope or doing monkey bars. More Tips Coming Soon...!
