Video Should I get a second parakeet

[Pig]

I have had a parakeet for a couple months and am thinking about geting a second one. I go to school and am worried that he is lonely while I'm at school. He is mostly bonded with me and is still a baby. Also I have a huge cage and a small cage and he is in the big cage if I do get a second bird should I put them together while I am training the new bird?

If you purchase a second bird, you should quarantine him/her first to prevent the possible spread of illness between the birds. After that, you would have to see how they interact outside of the cage before putting them in the same cage.
