A Budgies | Fallow typically lives 5-10 years. Most of what determines whether it gets there is routine care rather than anything dramatic.
Birds conceal illness
A bird sitting low, fluffed up and quiet, or with changed droppings, is already unwell and needs to be seen quickly.
Find an avian vet before you need one
Many small-animal clinics do not treat birds at all. Establish who does, in your city, in the first fortnight.
The annual check
Once a year for an adult bird, and book it before the hot months rather than during them.
Keep the records
Booster schedules run from the original dates, and a new vet asks for the history first.
A breed from India, living in India
The Budgies | Fallow was developed in India. The part that travels badly is rarely temperament - it is the coat and the tolerance for heat. Plan the year around that and most of the rest follows.
What “affectionate” means day to day
The Budgies | Fallow is described as affectionate, energetic, and curious nature. Of those, affectionate is the one that shapes an ordinary day most. It is easy to read as a selling point and harder to live with than the word suggests, because it does not switch off when you are busy.
Planning for about 7 years
A Budgies | Fallow is with you for about 7 years. Budget and routine both need to survive that, including the last quarter of it when a tiny bird needs more veterinary attention than it did young.
