April 8, 200817 yr Welcome Aaron to the forum…I hope you get interested in breeding Budgies & that we can help you with any advice. But as to housing Budgies in the same building as your poultry, that wouldn’t be advisable as poultry are much more resistant to bird diseases than Budgies would be & diseases from the poultry could easily spread to them. I would advise keeping your Budgies as far away from your chooks as possible. If you use an area that has been used previously by poultry, make sure it’s cleaned well & treated for mites etc.
