FAQs

How much does a Parakeet cost?

The price of a parakeet usually ranges from £15 to £100 depending on species, age, and colour, with common budgerigars typically costing between £15 and £30, and more exotic breeds commanding higher prices. Initial costs also include supplies such as a cage and toys, which can add £200 to £500. Monthly expenses for food, healthcare, and enrichment average £70 to £160. Overall, selecting a reputable breeder or pet store ensures you get a healthy bird and responsible ownership support.

Is it better to have two parakeets rather than one?

Yes, it is generally better to keep parakeets in pairs or groups because they are social birds that thrive on companionship. Having at least two parakeets helps to reduce loneliness and boredom, promotes natural behaviours like preening and playing together, and generally leads to happier, healthier pets. Single parakeets require significantly more interaction and attention from their owner to prevent behavioural issues.

Can I leave my parakeet alone for 3 days?

It is not advisable to leave a parakeet alone for three days without supervision. Parakeets need daily feeding, fresh water, and social interaction to stay healthy and stress-free. Even if food and water are left in sufficient quantities, the lack of social stimulation can lead to behavioural and health problems. If you must be away, arrange for someone to check on your bird daily or provide alternative care.
