On closer inspection they appear to be Grass Parakeets, an Australian breed that is commonly kept as a pet in the US and Europe.
That being said, The New York Times suggests that they're Scarlet-Chested Parakeets.
The birds in the Bird Box — a shoe box with holes punched in it —
appear to be scarlet-chested parakeets, a rare Australian breed that
likes to be housed in bigger cages or aviaries
Can you confirm you intended to part-quote Rainier Wolfcastle?

I would like to thank @Valorum for helping me solve this mystery!
According to this page it looks like Scarlet-Chested Parakeets are a subcategory of Grass Parakeets: http://blogs.thatpetplace.com/thatbirdblog/2010/03/30/the-gorgeous-grass-parakeets-an-introduction-to-some-popular-species/
So the birds in the movie are Grass Parakeets, specifically Scarlet-Chested Parakeets :)

I would like to thank @Valorum for helping me solve this mystery!
According to this page it looks like Scarlet-Chested Parakeets are a subcategory of Grass Parakeets: http://blogs.thatpetplace.com/thatbirdblog/2010/03/30/the-gorgeous-grass-parakeets-an-introduction-to-some-popular-species/
So the birds in the movie are Grass Parakeets, specifically Scarlet-Chested Parakeets :)
