Welcome to our world of Parakeet breeding for pleasure and profit.

I have written this HOW TO DO A4 colour book, after more than forty years of Parakeet breeding. It is to assist readers with or without experience, who would like to keep and breed these fascinating profitable birds.

Most are from Australia; the best known being the Budgerigar. Which comes from a group called Grass Parakeets of similar size.

Another group, about the size of a jackdaw and a third approximately the size of a rook. All are very attractive and display an array of mixed colours, and most are easy to keep and breed, which makes them so popular.

In addition, there are mutations of all three groups, making them even more fascinating, desirable and profitable. Like the normal (wild type), prices remain high, at all times of the year.
