Budgie Prices

[kakhan]

Was thinking how much a Budgie cost in different parts of the world.For Pakistan a normal pair will cost around 800 Pak Rs or say about 8 US $ and Exhibitioner Budgie will be from 5000 to 1000 Pak Rs that is 50 to 100 US $.

The most offered feed is millet and that is about 3 $ per Kg.

How much is the cost there?

millet is £24 for 15 kilo , a good bird from my birdroom is between 320 - £100 .................TO SEND ONE BIRD TO PAKISTAN WOULD COST APPROX £600

A pet type bird varies in price depending on the breeder. I have seen them advertised from £10 to £25 for a budgie. I would pay whatever was being asked for a bird which has been well cared for and started off in life. It's not about the price for me it's about getting a lovely budgie and promoting the welfare of caring bird breeders by giving them my business. (Not that I can have any more now unless I build my own aviary to keep them in!)

Looses Chinese millet is around 0.87 GBP per KG. (Sometimes with mice droppings in it).

Versele-Laga loose seed mix is around 1.73 GBP per KG.

Trill and other similar brand packs are around 2.60 GBP per KG.

Budgie pricess range from 15.00 to 25.00 GBP per budgie. All are breeders crap from around the world and imported at very low prices. They always have health and breeding issues.

I am sure that 100 to 320 pounds price would be for budgies with show competition quality and not pet budgies. Barrie's budgies are among the best. He is a champion breeder

[BudgiesBuddy]

Just to add that Barrie's prices are still on the lower side, people in UK ask way too much than this.

i know he is im sure his chicks are well worth the money would love to have one myself, would only have it as a pet though

Keep in touch with him. I am sure he would find a nice pet budgie for you on very reasonable price

I paid £10 each for Alfie and Sunny from a breeder . I have seen them priced at £12 in local pet shops

[carlshave]

Budgie prices around our area are pretty cheap at the moment petshop type in petshops are £12 but you can get them as cheap as £5 now from most breeders

[kakhan]

So the prices are almost equal all over the world.Its a cheap bird and may be thats why so common and kept everywhere.

I don't think so. I checked once, and the budgie from renowned breeders in UK was priced at 500 GBP but similar budgie from a similar standard breeder was priced around 100 Euro in European countries. I am referring to budgies for show bench.
