I can answer questions on breeding, illness, housing, diet, color mutations, genetics, and many others. I find budgies to be one of the most wonderful bird species to own as a pet. If I do not know the answer to you question, which is indeed a rare event, I will do my best to research and find the best answer to your question.

These birds are so wonderful there is an endless amount of information to know about them. I learn new things from budgies every day that I spend with them. If you have a question, please do not hesitate to ask. You will not be disappointed with the feedback.
