Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The budgerigar, often known as the parakeet, is one of the tiniest kinds of parrot that is widely kept as a pet. They are also one of the most popular birds kept as pets all over the globe, and one of the reasons for this is that they are quite inexpensive. These little parrots are very sociable and straightforward to domesticate. The beginning and the history The budgie and many other species of parakeets originated in Australia, where they may still be seen roaming the plains in large groups. These wild species, on the other hand, come in at a somewhat reduced size in comparison to the birds that are often available for purchase at pet shops. These birds have been bred in captivity for many years. Around the year 1840, the English scientist John Gould brought the budgie to Europe. Once there, the budgie immediately became a popular choice for keeping as a pet. By 1894, Australia had instituted a restriction on the export of budgies, which led to a flourishing breeding industry in Europe. The bird finally arrived in the United States around the year 1920, but it didn't start gaining widespread popularity until the 1950s. The American budgie, sometimes known as the parakeet, and the English budgie are the two varieties of budgies that are most commonly seen in the pet trade. The American variety is the one that can be found in pet shops the most often, whilst the bigger English budgie is the one that is most frequently seen at expositions and exhibits.
