Budgerigars can be raised either alone or in pairs, but from the point of view of budgerigars and human care, it is recommended to raise them in pairs unless the breeders can give them sufficient companionship.

Budgerigar is a kind of animal that understands human nature very well. if you keep only one, on the one hand, the little guy is easy to be lonely, on the other hand, the budgie sometimes feels itchy, and a partner can tickle each other at this time, so the quality of life will be higher. In addition, the average life span of budgerigar is 7-10 years, which can be regarded as a long-lived bird. For office workers who are often away from home from nine to five, breeding in pairs is naturally better.
