　　In the forest or in the zoo, there are many birds as there are many animals. But some of these birds differ in their traits from other birds. There are some types of birds that can be domesticated and used as pets. As we can use animals for pets so we can use birds for the same purpose. There are many people who are using birds for pets. This is in fact becoming a widely accepted trend in the world today. However, it is not every species of birds that can be used for this purpose. Here are some types of birds that can be used as pets.

　　Types of Birds: Love Birds

Lovebirds are among the types of birds that can be used as pets. They are like small sized parrots but are different from it. There are different species of lovebirds. Each of these species of lovebird has its peculiar colour mutation. If you want to keep lovebird as pet in your house, it is preferable that you keep male ones if you have children. The female ones can be somehow aggressive. An expert birder can tell the sex of lovebird at tender age. The price for these types of birds depends on their size, sex and colour.

Budgies are one of the numerous types of birds which can be used as pets. Budgies are very common and have been used for long as pets. The above explain why some people despise these birds. However, budgies can make good pets. They are energetic, playful and can sometime act as clowns. The birds are very gentle in their behaviour and therefore make best pets for children. Just like lovebirds, male budgies are less aggressive than the female ones. One thing that differentiates budgies from other types of birds is that it is very easy to distinguish the male from the female even at the early stage.
Besides the above mentioned birds there are other types of birds which can also be kept as pets. Some of these types of birds are not common. Example of such birds that can form perfect pets but are not common is parrotlet. Their beaks are as small as that of budgies. Kakarikis can be also be used as pets. Though they are more aggressive than budgies but they have small beaks. They are not as common as budgies. There are many birds that can be used as pet which are not mentioned here.
