I got the new budgie this evening.
Looks just like Sky.
I cried when I saw him.

At least I know he is healthy because they took him to the vet before giving him to me.

Do I still need to quarentine him??? Since I know that he is perfectly healthy???

well u should keep them in separate cages but when i get a new budgie i put it with my other ones if i notice that there is something wrong i separate them emediatley i think it should be ok considering he was checked by a vet!

Brittany regardless of the budgies being checked by a vet you must quarantine them for a month.
Put them in separate cages they can be in the same room just don't let them out together that way you can be sure there is nothing wrong.
After handling one budgie make sure you WASH your hands thoroughly before handling the other this is good hygiene during the quarantine period.
