Field Notes

Description:

Belly is Green and the rest of the body is yellow with scattered black spots. Has a blue "birthmark" below it's eye. Got it from petsmart last year. I've found that yellow/green parakeets have milder tempers than their blue siblings. Anyone else had this experience?

Habitat:

Cage, sunroom

I know this was posted YEARS ago, but this is completely normal. ALL budgies have that circle thing under their eyes.
