Budgie Parakeet Baby Pages

We create a “budgie baby page” for each round of budgie parakeet chicks so our adopters can ooh and aah over all the cuteness while they wait to bring their feathered friend(s) home. If you’d like to be added to our waiting list for a chick of your own, please visit our breeding program page for details!

Our Adoption Procedure (Baby Budgies):

1. Respond to our pre-adoption questionnaire.
2. Email your responses to: Jen @ puppies are prozac . com (remove all spaces in the address first).
3. Upon approval of your questionnaire responses, I will add your name to the waiting list.
4. 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.)
5. 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!
6. Most budgie parakeets are weaned and ready to move to new homes when they are 6-8 weeks of age. Sorry, no shipping. Pick up is in Fort Collins, Colorado.
