English and Australian Budgerigars

In the wild in Australia the Budgerigar is a green bird (known as a normal green in the cagebird) but has been bred by fanciers to now occur in a vast range of colours and markings.

In England it was developed to be a much larger bird with a broader and higher domed forehead and this is the bird now seen on the showbench in both countries.

In Australia the majority of birds sold through pet stores are the Australian strain of Budgerigar.

Both varieties make excellent pets.
