The "english" and the "australian" budgies are the same species. In fact, you might even say that the english budgies are a subspecies, because they were bred specifically for their size and larger crests, but they all originally came from Australia.

I suspect that one of my budgies has English in her because she's a bit heavier set than the others and is just shaped differently, more like the English style ones. No big puffy head though.

Mines tiny.. all Australian I'd say!! I used to have a huge english one though! I think the english ones are very common in NZ, but you can easily get both.
