... a newborn baby budgie only weighs two grams?

One of the only things that weigh less in the world, is a dollar bill (1 gram)
The average weight of a full-grown budgie is 42 grams.

Outcasts are welcome

Did you know that budgerigars make excellent foster parents for baby budgies from another nest? Lost baby budgies will always find a warm home in other budgie families.
