My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

BONDED PAIR ADOPTION FEE: $30 TOTAL

Olive and Stormy are a bonded pair of budgies looking for a home together, ideally as part of an existing flock. Stormy is a male and very devoted to Olive, sometimes a little too devoted. He can become hormonal and obsessive with her, which is why a knowledgeable home with other budgies and good flock dynamics is important for them to thrive.

Olive has a previous wing injury that healed but did not return to a normal position, so she is unable to fly. That said, she does not let it slow her down. She is a great climber, moves confidently around her space, and knows how to step up. She would do best in a setup that allows for easy climbing and safe navigation.

They originally came in as part of a flock of 4, and while adopting all 4 together would be the dream, we understand that adopting 4 budgies at once is a big ask. Olive and Stormy must be adopted together and would do best joining an existing flock with someone who understands budgie behavior and hormones.

Their forever family must provide a healthy diet, daily out of cage time, plenty of social interaction, and a spacious cage they can fly around in.

To begin the adoption process for our birds, please fill out the pre-adoption questionnaire below. Please be as detailed as you can so we can best match you with your forever friend. Remember to keep an eye on your inbox, including the junk folder, to ensure you don't miss any emails from us about your adoption application.
