Three budgies and a cockatiel? They look adorable! For a moment I thought the first picture had a giant budgie photoshopped into a movie scene, but then I realized it was a real picture with a toy.

Oh how cute. I'm looking forward to adding more colorful budgies to the flock. I want a yellow girl.
That hen on the cuttlebone looks like Beck.

I love the first picture especially! If my birds were more cooperative I'd like to take a shot at a couple of them sitting on my mini plush crocodile.

Yeah its my figure of arno from assassins creed unity. We opened cage so i could try and handle the tiel and the budgie landed on arno so i thought it was funny n took a picture. The tiel is pretty wild, i wrap him n a towl n put him on my chest n pet his head, once a day. He dosent like it but is getting bit calmer each time. Today he closed his eyes while i did it. He still trys n bites.

How cute! I didn't know you could put budgies and 'tiels together. Funny...I was looking at some cute budgies at the pet shop yesterday.

Having my budgie and my cockatiels together didn't work out too well.

When it comes to mixing species, it all depends on the individuals. Some will get along together and others will not. Cockatiels and budgies get along successfully in some cases but definitely not in all cases. It's dangerous to let cockatiels and budgies breed in the same aviary, because there will be a violent takeover if a budgie wants a nest that's occupied by cockatiel chicks.
There are a couple of common small-parrot species that should never be mixed with other species because they're highly aggressive. I'm talking about lovebirds and parrotlets. But in every species there are individuals who aren't typical, and I've heard of cases where a lovebird or parrotlet got along beautifully with some other bird species that usually would be in great danger of being killed by the aggressive species.
