Drs Foster & Smith cover bird

[Sivin]

Hi,

We just received the Drs. Fosters & Smith Red Tag Summer Sale catalogue and what looks to be a pink budgie is pictured on the cover. Can anyone tell me what exactly it is? I know there's a bird with a name sounding like"roseola" but I only come across the german measles like disease when I key it in.

Help!

Thanks! Happy 4th!

I think you're thinking about a Rosella Parakeet. However, they're not pink - they are beautiful though. I'd have to see the picture - I'm thinking Bourke's Parakeet, maybe ?

Hi Bev,

Yep! It's a Bourkes Parakeet. What a pretty bird! Thank for our help. Hope all is well back your way.

Thanks, Kerry,

Do you have any personal experience with them? Are they very expensive?

Thanks,
