Hey! So I should probably start out by saying i currently do not own any budgies 
In the past I've owned a Cockatiel which i got from my great-uncle a breeder who gave it to me on my 4th birthday tho i didnt really take care of it lol my mom did that fairly well. I did talk to spike (the bird) a lot and often tried feeding him, he lived till i was about 13 since he was already kinda old when i got him.
So currently the only pets i do have are...
- A few Leopard Geckos
- Mantecho Poison Dart Frogs
- A Bearded Dragon
- Fire Belly Toads
and if you count my backyard coop I also have 7 Bobwhite Quails for eggs
The reason I joined this forum is to gain more knowledge on the care of budgies/budgerigars, I first got interested in these adorable little parrots while spending my summer in Australia (3 months) with my grandparents who own a little budgie of their own and recently I got a bird cage from a relative that measures about 19" x 19" x 19" and was wondering if a budgie would be okay in that sized cage? I only plan on getting one since I have plenty of time to interact with the bird and constantly provide it with the social interaction that it needs but would that sized cage be okay for 1 bird? And also i go on camping trips during my school breaks for about a weak so what do you guys/gals do when your away from your little fellow?
Anyways thanks for any answers I might get
