The contraction for "budgerigar" is "budgie." This informal term is commonly used in English-speaking countries to refer to this small, colorful parakeet, which is a popular pet bird. The name "budgie" is derived from the first syllable of the original word, making it easier and quicker to say.
The most reliable methods for determining the gender of a budgerigar are DNA testing and surgical sexing. DNA testing involves taking a blood sample or plucking a few feathers for analysis. Surgical sexing is a procedure done by a veterinarian to visually inspect the bird's reproductive organs. These methods provide accurate results for determining the gender of a budgerigar.

The other way is if a bird lays an egg (hens will sometimes lay unfertilized eggs even if there are no males), she is definitely a female.
Budgie IS the contraction. The full name is Budgerigar.
Parakeet can refer to many different species of small parrot, some of which are blue. If you are from the U.S., the most common species that is called a parakeet is the budgerigar, which has many color mutations that appear blue. If the bird being sold is less than $40 it is probably a budgerigar. Other possibilities that are common in the pet trade are Quaker/Monk parakeets (Myiopsitta monachus) and Alexandrine parakeets (Psittacula eupatria). In both cases, if the bird looks blue it is a color mutation and not the natural wild color.
