In North America culture, the name “paakeet” has been giving to the species of parrot properly known as the “budgerigal” or the “budgie, for short. Technically, a parakeet is any small species of parrot with a long tail, so it can correctly be called the “budgerigar parakeet”. Confusing? Yes. Let’s just call them parakeets.

The melopsittacus undulates, or parakeet for us non-scientific folks, is a small parrot about seven inches long with a weight of approximately thirty to forty grams. Native to the grasslands and scrublands of Australia, this bird has been known to travel to many wooded and coastal areas when food and water are in short supply in their preferred surroundings.

Under proper conditions the parakeet can live as long as fifteen years, depending on their diet and other factors. On average, the life expectancy of this bird is ten to fifteen years.

Parakeets have gained much attention for some of their astounding accomplishments. For example a the Guinness Book of World Records documented the largest parrot vocabulary at 1,728 words and phrases.

The parakeet is highly trainable and very intelligent. Just like all parrots, it will need to be trained accordingly. While they are not capable of landing a bit that will send you the local emergency room for x-rays and stitches and aren’t load enough to cause any hearing damage, it does have one distinct advantage: it can fly.

Natural evader and flight master, which is not an uncommon thing for a small bird, we suggest not giving chase through the house. Unfortunately wing clipping and nail grooming are requirements for this small bird. We suggest building up a relationship with the animal prior to reaching into its cage and grasping them for routine maintenance. If you can gain the parakeets trust, this will be a much more simplified task, but if you scare the bird you’ll build feelings of mistrust and it won’t want to be around you.

If your parakeet was hand raised, then these are often the easiest to teach. If you parakeet doesn’t learn to talk, it will still be able to communicate to you in its own fweeps and warbles.
