Jayden - Budgie Budgerigar Bird Available for Adoption in Fairfax, Virginia

Jayden the little blue parakeet is seeking a loving home where he can perch comfortably and sing his sweet little song! Jayden came to the shelter after being unable to adjust to a home with other parakeets. While parakeets are usually social creatures and live in flocks, Jayden may do best as a solo budgie or with a slow introduction to other confident parakeet(s) of the same gender. There is no better way to brighten your day than to be greeted by the delightful chirp of an adorable parakeet! They have unique personalities and will keep you entertained all day long with their delightful antics. Come meet and adopt Jayden, today!
