Are Parakeets supposed to be friendly, you know and become your close companion?

Answers:

Yes, Parakeets can become very friendly. However if this is what you want I suggest having only one bird. The bird will see you as their flock but if you have more than one they will look to each other. You also need to be patient and realize that it may take over a year for your bird to really trust you. Take your time, start by just putting you hand in the cage and over time let it get closer to the bird. You may also want to try holding out a small perch and having them get use to that. Spend time with your bird everyday they are social creatures and need that time with you.

If you want it to be social with you then only have ONE bird.otherwise they socialize with each other and not with human owners as much

Hey andy, it really matters on how you treat your parakeet. Example? I used to have a rare parakeet called gosha. MAN! I loved him with all my heart. He bit all of the other people he dint know, except me and my family. Cause we gained his trust. So it really matters how you treat your parakeet.

Yes parakeets are very friendly, but you can't cuddle them or keep them close, the most you can do is pet them gently, teach them to talk, and watch them fly around and play, just keep the windows closed. But if you realize they are delicate, the are fun.

I had a parakeet which I bought was still small and I had to feed it with an eye drop like thing, so I think he thought I was his mother. When he was a baby I kept him in my shirt pocket and walked around but as he got older, I perched him on my shoulder and rode my bicycle and had no problem.

they can be if you spend time with them and they had to be hand fed when they were babys
