No, you just need to buy or make a nesting box for them. A nesting box is some sort of covered box with enough space for the birds to move around in, it connects to the cage through a hole near the top, but it has to be big enough that the birds can get in. Also, to be able to check in once and a while without disturbing the occupant too much, make sure that the top can open up so that you can see in.

The one thing that is absolutely necessary though is nesting material (like strips of shredded paper).

Are parakeets happier when they live with another parakeet?

The parakeets would much rather be with other parakeets, THEY ARE FLOCK BIRDS!!! However, if you have more than one parakeet, they will not bond to you because they are bonding to the other parakeets. The reason that parakeets bond so well is that they are flock birds and so if you make yourself part of their flock, they will bond very well. But if you are wondering what would make them happy, they would much rather be with other parakeets. A good parakeet site is www.lisashea.com/petinfo/budgie.html

Not necessarily. Falcons and such birds (Eagles, Bald Eagles, etc...) eat rodents, but parakeets and parrots would probably pester it if the guinea pig got out of its cage. What kind of bird are you talking about?


Why is your parakeet violent toward other parakeets?

The parakeets may feel cramped or the parakeets in the same cage may be the same gender. If you have two of the same gender, there is a greater chance of fighting because they want to be dominant over the other bird.

You should get a new cage because when they bite the cages they try to get out. Mine got out. Get a glass cage instead. Hope this helps.


Are birds easy to care for?

I used to have a parakeet name Sam. He was easy to take care of... you put newspaper down in the cage and they really don't eat that much but once a week you change the newspaper well of course I took sam out of the cage and let him fly around and when I got done cleaning his cage I just put him back in there. It really depends on the type of bird you get... Parakeets can be easy and alittle hard... to me they are good pets for new pet owners or owners that are learning to take care of animals :) Good Luck with your bird.
