Best Answer

A male bird (obviously)

A nest box and get paper from a petstore for it to shred

to get them in the mood 13 hrs of daylight

lots of calcium from cuttlebones/mineral blocks so the female doesnt have a high chance on egg binding or the shell being broken when the female is producing it.(all these things could kill your female)

You should allow them to be ATLEAST a year old (for small birds like a budgie.)

Lots of food and water

Make sure to check the babies to make sure they are getting fed by the mother so look in there crop a couple times a day.If they are not getting fed you might have to hand raise them.

african greys can live to 40+ years and galahs can live up to 70 years

Are parakeets better house pets than parrots?

I have a bit of a newsflash for you. Parakeets are parrots. The term "parakeet" is used to describe a medium-sized parrot. Parakeets are smaller, are cheaper to feed, are easier to maintain and need a smaller cage. Parrots are usually better talkers and live longer and need more attention but need more space. The better bird depends on what characteristics you want.

How can you get your parakeets to fall in love when one is younger than the other?

You cannot make parakeets fall in love with each other - it is up to them. Also, you need to make sure they are of opposite sex otherwise there is no hope of them falling in love. To improve the chance of them falling in love make sure they are happy and have everything they need - food, water, a big enough cage and possibly flying time outside their cage (if they are tame). Some parakeets need a nest box to breed, look up information in books or on the internet to see if that's what your parakeets need!
