We have a various selection of budgies. We keep them in an outdoor avairy with the cockatiels:

When birds like budgies and cockatiels are kept in cages they should always be let out for a couple of hours at least every day to give them excercise and keep them fit.

There are mutations such as lutino, albino, greens, blues and multiple variations! TO sex nromal budgies it is very easy. Males have a blue cere, and females will have a pinkish cere, brown/crusty when in breeding condition.

Here are a few that are living outside in the avairy: In the aviary we have a few nestboxes so that they can nest if they want. The avairy is also covered in pvc sheeting all around except the front. This is the same for the lovebirds as well. This gives them a bit more protection from the elements, especially in the winter. In the summer i may take the sides off to make it a bit more open when the warmer weather is about!

Budgies eat a simple budgie 50/50 mix as well as, greens, millet spray etc like the cockatiels. All birds eat millet spray. Sunflower seeds shouldn't be fed in vast quantities to budgies as they can get fat easily if they eat to many of them.
