Need help naming my new budgie...

[MissTee]

For my birthday my mom bought me a hybrid English Budgie/ parakeet. I need help naming him. He has one eye. The other eye never fully developed. So far I've come up with Teddy or Patchy. Anyone else have any ideas?

Davy! Like Davy Jones' locker, you know, like pirates, since he only has the one eye

Hi! Just wanted to say welcome!

I noticed that your name and nickname are the same as mine, my family calls me Tee.

Patchy is a good name, for some reason I thought of Patch, like Patch Adams

How cool!!! Not many people spell it that way! Thank you for the welcome!!!

So true. I like patchy too. We had to rename him because the store named him One Eyed Willie. And let's just say someone pointed out how it sounds not appropriate. So he is now getting him self a new name.

I also was suggested Fury ( Nick Fury, one eyed). But it doesn't really fit his personality. He is a sweetie.

How about Rooster from True Grit?

He is gorgeous.

I ran into a breeder site somewhere on the net stating that the half regular budgie and half English was their favourite. I probably would have bought my birds from them, but they don't ship. (My guess is that the Engish gives the bird some extra size, and breeding the English back to the more wild type gives the birds a little vigor - the English breed being prone to a shorter lifespan.)

I like Patch too.

Awe thank you!!! He is gorgeous. I had a soft spot for him when I saw him.

I wouldn't really call him a hybrid, since the English variety is a breed of the normal/wild type budgerigar species. Now, if he was mixed with another species of bird (i.e. lovebird - not that there's any proof that budgies have hybridized with any other species), then he could be called a hybrid. In other words....

English/Show budgie is to Normal/Wild type budgie as dog is to grey/timber wolf.


In a manner of speaking.




He is gorgeous though! Appears to be a spangle opaline! Very pretty combo!
