Shirley is a sweet budgie with an interactive personality. She will hop onto an outstretched hand, especially if treats are involved! She also enjoys spending time outside of her cage once or twice a day, stretching her wings and exploring. Inside her cage, she likes gazing out the window and watching budgie videos, using a variety of perches with different textures. Her favorite toys are cupcake paper shredders. As a treat, she is also learning to enjoy vegetables. Shirley is a social bird and needs company! She would do best in a home that already has budgies, but because she has a history of egg-laying, she cannot be housed with males. If you have room in your flock for a friendly budgie, then apply to adopt Shirley today! Adoption fee: $15.
