Budgies
Small, bright, social parrots that now open into a deeper lane on setup, naming, wild context, and care.
Live Page 🪺Budgies & Parakeets Hub
An expanded hub with new spin-off pages for naming clarity, wild budgerigars, and the budgie care lane.
Expanded Hub 🌍Origins World Map
A visual map page that shows where major companion parrot groups come from and links into the live species lanes.
New Map 🎶Cockatiels
Gentler companion birds with strong routines, expressive crests, and a real need for flock contact.
Live Page 🌿Caiques
The existing species page for the birds that inspired WIDGET and DIGIT.
Existing 🤍Cockatoos
Emotionally intense parrots that deserve serious suitability framing, not impulse ownership hype.
Live Page 💙Macaws
Large, charismatic parrots with equally large needs around space, noise, strength, and lifespan.
Live Page 📊Compare & Fit
Use the new compare lane to sort birds by apartment risk, lifestyle intensity, and mismatch potential.
Decision Tools 🫂Rescue & Rehome
Species pages are stronger when they lead naturally into rescue-first intake and rehome reality checks.
Rescue LaneHow Library Pages Work
The research strongly recommended a multi-axis, rescue-aware structure. That means each species page should do more than list colors and fun facts.
Helpful Compare Paths
Apartment Risk
Noise honesty should be a standard part of choosing birds, especially cockatoos, macaws, and louder conure types.
⏳Longevity Planning
Some parrots are short chapters. Others are long family timelines. The library should keep that visible.
🧩Enrichment Intensity
The right bird match is partly about how much daily social and mental energy a home can really sustain.
🚨Not For Everyone
The site should be comfortable saying when a species is a poor fit for most homes.
Good Next Paths
Care Hub
Use the care pages when a species page starts raising questions about sleep, food, cages, or hazards.
🛒Store Framework
Future product pages should tie back to species fit instead of treating all parrots like one category.
🎥Media & Theater
The species lens also matters for live feeds, screen sensitivity, and enrichment media choices.
