Should I get one or two Budgies?
Good question and normally based on the feeling that the one budgie would get lonely on its own. Getting a young budgie will as they are easier to tame, is the best as previously stated. The budgie will then see you as its family and a mate would distract from that. If you get more than one I suggest you get 2 males because they are less likely to fight and most people confirm they talk more readily than females. It actually makes sense as the male does all the courting!
