Help SMWV build some much-needed nesting boxes for our beloved parakeets. Parakeets mate for life and once they find their "forever mate," they need a cozy love nest to raise their families. If they cannot find a place to lay their egg then it is possible for them to become egg bound and pass away. These boxes will also help us track parakeet births as required by the USDA. Donors' names will be painted on the boxes in recognition of their support. Let us know if you would prefer to not have your name listed or if you would like to donate in honor of someone else!
