Budgies keeping Tips for Beginner

Buy from a reputable breeder if possible.
Don’t buy a bird younger than eight weeks old.
If buying from a pet store, ask how old the budgie is. If the store isn’t sure, it’s best not to buy from them. Shop birds might have been in the cage for a long time without a buyer, and you want to avoid bringing home a bird more than six months old, as it will be ‘set in its ways’ and harder to settle in and hand-tame.
