My boyfriend got a bird, a little over a month ago, from the flea-market. He had no idea what it was, but he wanted a bird, so he got her. He had to get rid of her, so I'm taking care of her now, so I'd like to know for sure what she is. I'm pretty sure she's a parakeet, but when I tried looking for pictures, I found birds of the same stature, but none with the same coloring. She's mostly white, but underneath her wings, is bright blue. She's got a few black/grey wavy-lines on her head, and two small purple spots on her neck. Any parakeet I've ever seen has had the lines on their wings & back. The man he got her from said she was unique, but didn't say how. I'd like to know for sure if she's a parakeet, and if so, what type she is. Thanks ahead for any help.

  1. sounds like a parakeet to me. There are many different colors of them...


  2. Parakeets come in a thousand different mutations.  

    Google - parakeet mutations.

    Be sure she has a cuttle bone - soft part in - so she can chew it and a couple times a week, clip a piece of Romain or Swiss Chard onto the cage with a clothes pin.  3 times a week take her outside to get sunshine for 15 minutes.  Screen/windows do not give her vitamin D which she needs.  Stay with her for 15 minutes outdoors.

  3. From your discription I would agree it is a Parakeet.  They came in ALL colors and markings.
