Budgie Parakeets for Sale in Colorado (Waiting List)

Yellow face blue dominant pied male.

Our sweet baby budgies are selectively bred for temperament and handled daily. You aren’t likely to find birds like ours at a pet store (where they obtain their birds from large commercial production “bird mills”). This puts our babies in high demand and they are typically reserved before they are born. Once I receive your pre-adoption questionnaire, I’ll add your name to the waiting list below. I know it’s hard to wait — read about our specialized breeding program and then you’ll know why the wait is worth it! And take heart, the waiting list numbers typically decrease when confirmations and deposits are requested which will move your name up the list faster.

If you don’t want to wait for a baby budgie, we often have young adults available for immediate adoption. Like all of our birds, they eat an organic, wholesome diet and are provided opportunities for exercise, flight and play. Adult budgie adoption fees are inexpensive, too: $5 and up depending on age, color, variety, and level of training and/or tameness. Go to our Adults Currently Available page to see photos, descriptions and details.

Our Adoption Procedure:

PLEASE NOTE: Our specialized breeding program is on hold until further notice. When we moved to a new home, we retired our breeding pairs. I will need to replace them – and I’m extremely picky about pair selection. In the meantime, my family and I are taking a break from the round-the-clock care that raising baby budgies require. To keep an eye out for future updates to our flock status:
* Bookmark this webpage and check back periodically
* Like my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Puppies-Are-Prozac-Chicks-Are-Chocolate-274291365916519/
* Or send me an email so I can contact you once we’re raising baby budgies again.
Thanks for your patience.

  1. Respond to our pre-adoption questionnaire.
  2. Upon approval of your questionnaire responses, I will add your name to the waiting list.
  3. Once your name is up on our waiting list and we have 3 to 4 week old chicks, I will notify you to request a non-refundable deposit ($15 per budgie baby) that will apply towards your final purchase. I will also post photos and descriptions for your online viewing of each chick’s type, color, mutations, and gender. Chick selections will be honored in the order of the date each person was initially added to our waiting list. If we don’t have what you want in that specific round, you can “skip” and make your selection from the next round of chicks instead.
  4. While waiting for your “Budgie Stork” to arrive, please read our care instruction page. Also take a look at the cages, foods, and supplies we offer just for our adopters.
  5. Most budgie parakeets are weaned and ready to move to new homes when they are 7-8 weeks of age. Sorry, no shipping. Pick up is in Fort Collins, Colorado.
