your parakeet is drinking water, but they don't drink that much. u just don't see it drink.

Is the water in a water bottle or in a dish? I provide the water in a dish my bird can drink out of any time. All you can do is change the water every day and monitor the bird. If he does not seem ill, he probably is drinking.

What kind of Parakeet? most Australian species can go a while without drinking but at some time they do have to drink are you giving it fruit? if so then this is why he does'nt seem to be drinking much he is takeing the juice from the fruit if you are worried try giveing him some Spinach or Watercress leaves but not Mustard cress he will get moisture from these and they will also do him good

Where are you getting the water from. Tap water very often has chlorine in it and may smell funny to your bird. Try plain drinking water from the store to rule out your own water. Birds don't drink alot anyway.
good luck

Your bird is probably still drinking his water, you just cant tell. I own a bird and he drinks very little as well. you should still change the water often, however

change the water twice a day because birds take baths in their water and after they do they wont drink the water

are you sure he's not drinking it? it's kinda hard to tell the amount of water birds drink, they don't drink very much.. but if you are sure, get him to a vet! there may be a deeper problem..
