English Budgies are similar to Parakeets, except a lot bigger. I use to breed and show both of them along with several other type of birds. Most of my baby keets as well as the English Budgie babies all talked. It was a lot of fun in those days, but also a lot of hard work taking care of them. I also earned my degree as an Avian Specialist. I worked along side a Avian Vet at the time.

I adore them, once had a champion talker named Bunkie, I have hours of tape of him talking and carrying on conversations with me. He lived 6 yrs and I miss him still.

Big round ears & short pointy ears + Apple & Fox Ears - Is there a corrct size? Head shape - I like both but was puzzled when I saw the differences. When someone mentioned the 'fox' head I was intrigued - had only ever heard of the 'apple'. If nothing else the standard for Chihuahuas seems to be a healthy mix. I have noticed that some breeders have the smaller eared dogs and they tend to be 'apple heads'. Some dogs seem to have really big ears- all are seriously cute. Nice for us owners - we can have a choice. It all seems moot as I will be getting a rescue - but already I can see all the variations. Coats, ears, head, colouring.....makes me think they are more like my Budgies LOL -- Joyce and Chi Gang!
