🔺Budgerigars

A budgerigar, sometimes known as a budgie, is a small bird native to Australia that has a preference for nesting in the trunks of trees. The feathers of these birds can be seen to have a variety of vivid colors, including green, yellow, and blue. There is a good chance that the budgie’s back and face will be marked with black. They have a relatively small wingspan of approximately 12 inches, and their average weight is under 1.5 ounces. Baby Budgies, also known as Parakeets, may typically be purchased for anywhere from $25 to $200 The prices that fall within this range for budgies may generally be expected to be found in many countries around the globe. 

🔺Cockatiels

As the smallest of the cockatoos, the Cockatiel is between 30 and 60 centimeters in length. Cockatiels can live anywhere from 10 to 15 years in the wild or in captivity. Given the dangers of predators and the environment, it is unlikely that many wild cockatiels will live to adulthood. It is estimated that the wild cockatiel lives between 10 and 15 years. In contrast, a properly cared-for tame cockatiel can survive for up to twenty-five years on average, thanks in part to a balanced diet. A cockatiel’s price might vary widely, but on average, they are priced between $30 and $250.

🔺Conure

One of the parrot families that has the most variety is the conure family. These tiny to medium-sized parrots have long tail feathers and can grow to a length of just over 20 inches, ranging just from under 10 inches just to over 20 inches. A captive Conure may only make it to the ripe old age of ten years if its husbandry and care are subpar, but with proper husbandry & care, a Conure may easily survive for twenty years. Some conures have indeed been known to live as long as 25 years if they are given the best possible care, but it appears that this is the species’ maximum lifespan. a conure can cost anywhere from $200 to $3,000 dollars.

🔺Parrotlets

As an adult parrotlet, a healthy bird can grow to between four and a half and slightly over five inches about 28.5 cm (33 grams). Additionally, their 9-and-a-half-inch wingspans make them the smallest of any known birds. The lowest price for parrotlet is $120, however, they are usually priced between $200 and $350. Some of these parrots’ more eye-catching color variations can command a greater price. The average lifespan of a parrotlet is between 15 and 20 years. The ideal way to keep a parrotlet is as a single bird.

🔺Quaker Parrots

It’s well-known that Quakers are excellent mimics of human speech. Their ability to learn a wide range of words and sounds is matched only by their ability to communicate with a clarity that rivals that of larger parrot species. They are around 11 inches long from beak to tail. The average weight of an adult is approximately 3.5 ounces (100 grams). Between the ages of 20 and 30 years, they have an average lifetime. Depending on where you buy it, a Quaker will set you back an average of $400. Costs for upkeep, food, and veterinarian appointments should be factored in.

🔺Mini Macaws

These are the tiniest of all true macaws; their length is just slightly greater than that of a cockatiel, and they measure around 12 inches from beak to tail. They enjoy having a good time and are entertaining, but if they are not given the attention they require, they can become aggressive. This is typical of tiny macaws in general. 

These very intelligent parrots are able to form strong bonds with their owners and can eventually be relied upon to mimic both the sounds and movements that their masters make. In addition to this, their longevity is typically between 20 and 30 years, which is pretty exceptional for a bird.
