Do pet birds get avian flu like chickens do ?

I was just reading that in India, and somewhere else that I have forgotten, they are killing thousands of chickens. They have found chickens that had avian flu, and it is possibly the kind that can spread to humans, so they are killing the chickens to prevent the flu from spreading.
The interesting part is that they think that the chickens got the avian flu from wild birds flying into the area and transmitting the flu to the chickens.
So, what I have been wondering , is if the flu originally came from wild birds, could it also spread to pet birds like canaries and parakeets ? ?
It would seem to me that if it can spread from a wild bird to a domestic chicken, that it could also spread to someone's pet bird, and then to the owner of the bird, since it is the variety of avian flu that is contagious to humans.

I do not think that is likely. Pet birds are almost always indoors all the time. That prevents them from coming into direct contact with any wild bird. I do not think a pet bird would be at risk of catching avian flu unless the pet owner also had chickens and a chicken contracted it. In that case it might be possible for the pet owner to expose the pet bird to the virus after touching the sick chicken. Other than that, the only way a pet bird could catch something that is spreading in the wild is if the pet owner had it, or had it on their body or clothing when handling the bird. I don't think you have anything to worry about.
