though many of us consider budgerigars just as domestic as a cat or dog, they have retained many of their wild traits – some escaped or released pet budgies have even formed their own feral colonies. in the wild, budgies mainly eat grass seeds, and forage in grasslands. they are highly social, and travel in large flocks, sometimes numbering in the thousands.
