The average lifespan for a budgie is between 5 - 8 years. This can extend to 15 if the bird is well fed and kept in clean conditions.
Life span depends on genetics and how well a bird is cared for during its lifetime.
It honestly depends on the budgie's country of origin. Budgies in Australia, their country of origin, easily live between 10 and 15 years in captivity. In England, years of inbreeding and changing the birds' natural size and certain characteristics has resulted in shorter lifespans of just a few years.
about 5-8 years but some budgies can live till about 10 years and some budgies have been recorded being 21 years old!
If taken good care of, usually about 15 years.
Thats a very good question. The answer is 10 to 15 years. Im the animal expert. If you have any animal questions ask me.
They live for 2.34596 years exactly

Yes, lots of people have pet budgies.
Most budgies live to be somewhere between 5 and 10 years old. Under ideal circumstances, budgies have been known to live up to 12 years.
There are many different species of small parrot that are referred to as parakeets. The most commonly kept species is the budgerigar. Budgies can live to be in their late teens or early twenties if they are well cared for, but most pet budgies do not live that long due to bad breeder practices, poor nutrition and lack of proper veterinary care.
Budgies are more easy to take care of but canarys can get sick easily even if you give 100% to how much you care it. Budgies are cheaper and can live up to 30 years and sometimes more... but most budgies live for 5-6 years or 10 years. Canarys are very cute and bite less so you chose :)
Yes. Sadly, pet birds can and do get cancer.yes they can
Most budgies hate having their wings touched and may squawk or bite if angry or annoyed. If in a happy mood, a budgie may let you touch their wings.
Not technically, seeing as budgies originate in Australia's grasslands.
no
There are dozens of different species of small parrot that are called parakeets. The one most commonly kept as a pet is the budgerigar, also known as a budgie. Wild budgies are usually about 7 inches (18 cm) from beak to the tip of their tailfeathers. Captive budgies vary in size, with English/show type budgies being larger than those found in the pet trade in North America.
Budgies in their native habitat are green and yellow, although for pet budgies there are now other colors including but not limited to: Sky blue, White, Violet, Olive, Turquoise. Budgies usually have at least two of these colors in a pattern such as Opaline, spangled or cinnamon.
If your budgies are used to being indoors, and if you do not live in a warm climate, they should not be moved to an aviary. Cold winters are deadly for budgies.
i am going to let you do the math. Budgies live from 8 years to 13. People live from....... like about 70 to 100.
