Hey everyone I might be going to the pet store today to get a new Budgie to add to my collection! Do you have any suggestion for a pet store budgie? How should I handle him? Boy or girl? Name ideas? I am hoping to get a blue that has some red and green idk I'll see when u get there! It has to have the look or I won't buy it! Please any suggestion would be nice I have never owned a petstore bird before

Budgies don't typically have "red" in them at all. Maybe you were looking at some other kind of bird? You just need to pick one that you like. A new bird could be expensive, so if funds are tight I would wait a little bit. It's all up to you though to use your best judgement

I have just seen some at the pet store with a light pastel red/pink but I don't mind if it doesn't have that colour and what I mean by the look is it has to look like a pet I would own I have to be able to see him in the future in my house with my pets

No budgie has red or pink on them. That is not a color that they naturally produce. If you have seen a bird with these colors, they are either a different species of bird (perhaps a love bird) or their feathers have been stained by some agent, like a colored mineral block.

I thought I remember you saying you were getting a hand feed budgie. As far as I know most pet store budgies are not hand feed. I could be wrong though.
On the Vet front for you Dog, have you asked if you could do a payment plan?

We have one petstore in our city that sells hand fed ones and for the payment plan know I should ask them today

Even if the vet's office doesn't normally do payment plans, I'm sure they would rather receive regular small payments on the bill than not receive any money at all. You may just want to let them know that you will be sending $10 or $15 dollars a month (or whatever) until the bill is paid in full.

This is true. I worked for a vet office in college and they were more than willing to work something out with people.
