Two Keets if you're Not Home

User Question
Should I get two parakeets if I'm gonna be at school for a while??

Lisa's Answer
Yes if you are not around for most waking hours, getting 2 keets is the kind thing to do. Keets go to sleep at dark. So if they are alone all day when it was light, that is not a great life for a keet. Keets are flock animals and want to be with their flock. If you can be home during the day, a human flock is fine. But if you are going to abandon them to an empty house, they need someone to hang out with.
