Question
I saw my parrakeet stand on 1 foot is that ok?

Answer
Hello Danielle and thank you for your post.
If your Parakeet was standing on one foot with the other foot tucked up under it, that's perfectly fine.  It is just showing that your Parakeet is relaxed and getting ready to sleep (Parrots sleep on one foot and with their head tucked behind one wing).
Unless your bird is very puffed up, I wouldn't worry about him/her.

Good luck and God Bless.
