Thank you, Bonnie. I have been wanting to read up on Budgie care for a while now- especially health problems- thank you for the link, I already have the contacts of 2 avian vets around my area- I will keep these tips in mind!

It is so sad that budgies are so prone to tumors. My little Joe Joe was just diagnosed with a renal tumor and is only expected to live another 2 weeks to a month. We have only had him since October. We rescued him from the Gabriel Foundation here in Elizabeth, CO.

Do budgies get sick often and need to be taken to the vet a lot because I am not looking to spend a lot on medical problems

Depends on breeding, husbandry, and general care.

Better not to get any bird then as proper food, toy, housing, and vet costs are all up there. They are not "budget" companions by any stretch of the imagination.
