Question

Do parakeets talk as much as larger birds? ?

Answer 1

My son had a keet that could recite the pledge of allegience sing songs ,whistle the Andy Griffeth theme and talk a blue streak. Depends on how you train them.---Yogi

Answer 2

Not normally. It really depends on your bird, I assume by parakeet you mean budgie. Budgies aren't as big of talkers as parrots are, but my old budgie was very very talkative. If you want your bird to talk just keep up training him.  

Answer 3

Some budgies can be quite chatty, their voices are just not as loud and clear as some of the bigger parrots.  Not all Parrots are guaranteed to talk.  Even Crows can talk if raised like a domestic Parrot.
