The Budgie Bird
Rabbi Moshe Leib Halberstadt
Tishrei 13, 5770
Question
Is a Budgie a Kosher bird? Can I keep him as a pet at home?
Answer
The Budgie is clearly a non-kosher bird.
It is permitted to keep it as a pet at home.
Some people don't keep any pet birds at home, whether they are kosher or not, according to Kabala.
