Parakeet Training and Care

Greetings, and welcome to my Parakeet Website! I provide almost 900 individual articles, photos and video files about parakeets for you to read and enjoy. I cover everything from choosing a new keet, determining your parakeet's gender, properly feeding and caring for your parakeet, dealing with group parakeet issues, and much more.

I have owned parakeets - also called budgies or keets - since I was a tiny toddler. In fact I have a picture on this site of my mom's parakeet (named Gandalf), so she owned parakeets even before I was born. I currently own 4 parakeets which were born in the middle 1990s. Parakeets can live FAR more than the 5-7 years a pet store can quote! My parakeets are all about 10 years old now, and are doing quite well.

There is a LOT of mis-information on the web about parakeets, written based on knowledge from the 1950s and 60s. Always be cautious when believing any website that tells you to do something. I can tell you that the information I have here is kept fully up to date and is based on my 38+ years experience with these wonderful birds. I have verified everything in here with multiple vets.

I hope you enjoy the site!
