1.First get a new cage for the new parakeet, then put them next to each other to let them get used to it.
2.After that, if they are both friendly to each other then let them out at the same time. 3.If they are still being nice then let them explore each others cage.
4.Put the NEWEST budgie in your original budgies cage but only leave them in for about 30mins then take the other budgie out.
5.Slowly increase the time until they are in the same cage all the time
Remember to cancel the whole operation if they start to fight and keep the other cage incase you need to separate them. DO NOT put a male and a female in the same cage unless you know how to look after the chicks properly. Do not put two females in the same cage unless they get along. Remember, do it slowly because how would you like it if you came home to find a stranger eating your food and watching your TV?
Also, put two of everything in the cage. Two cuttle bones 2 food dishes 2 water dishes ect.
If you want to do it with more of them then you need to put MORE cages next to each other, have MORE of everthing and stuff like that so for the moment i would just add one and take it from there
Also, quarenteen your new bird to make sure its not ill and if it shows any signs of illness take it to the vets and do not add it to your other bird unless your vet says yes

What else can I help you with?
My parakeet kills other parakeets because theres only one in the cage with him could it be possible for him to stop killing parakeets if he is with more than one in the cage?
I have a parakeet that is hurting my others, so i am putting her in a smaller separate cage next to the one the other parakeets are in.
I have two male parakeets can I put them in the same cage?
Yes, Parakeets love to have company in their cage, two mail parakeets would be fine together.
Do parakeets have to breed in a breeding cage?
Not necessarily. You can breed them in any cage.
What other breeds can you cage with parakeets?
Cokateils are a good choice to cage with parakeets, although almost any bird around the same general size is ok.

Can you put three parakeets in one cage?
Most definantly! You could put a thousand in and it would ok! Parakeets are very social. Just make sure you have a big enough cage.......or an aviary!
What size cage for 3 parakeets?
A very big box
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
Do cocketiels and parakeets get along?
There have been cases where they do, but it is not recommended to mix different species of birds in the same cage. Cockatiels are much bigger than parakeets, and can cause serious damage from a single bite.
Where to put parakeets when cleaning the cage?
I either open the cage door and let my bird fly around the room while I clean the cage.
Do parakeets stink?
Not preferably, unless you don't take care of the bird or its cage.
How do you put a nestbox in a parakeets cage?
I don't have anything special in my cage all I have are toys water food and a mineral/salt block.
