Question

Can parakeets that live in side get RABIES?

Answer 1

Birds do not get rabies dear.  

Answer 2

Birds do not carry or get rabies

Answer 3

If the perakeets are in side and unless you have wild animals running around your house, I dont think it is possible for them to get rabies. Rabies is a virus that is spread by a wild animal that has rabies to one with out by biting them. Also but rarely it can be spread by body fluids such as saliva, going in to anouther animals eyes, nose, mouth, or a wound. Plus a bird cant even get rabies. Rabies affect mammals. Hope this helps!^.^

Answer 4

No.  Rabies is a virus that only affects mammals.  Birds cannot contract rabies.
