Hi, I’m Richard

Meet Richard - A Feathered Friend for the Experienced Bird Lover

Richard is a unique and spirited bird looking for a home with someone who understands avian behaviour and respects his space. Likely having lived in an aviary, he isn't hand-tame and takes time to build trust, but with patience and consistency, a bond can blossom.

He thrives in the company of other birds and would love a feathered companion to share his days with. Richard enjoys a varied diet of high-quality seed, fresh vegetables, fruits, and the occasional treat to keep him healthy and happy.

Enrichment is a must for this curious boy, he adores toys, swings, and foraging opportunities, and will enthusiastically shred anything he's given! His ideal home will offer plenty of stimulation to encourage natural behaviours and prevent boredom.

If you're an experienced bird owner ready to offer Richard the respectful, enriching environment he deserves, he might just be your perfect match.

If you think this bird might be the perfect fit for your family, please fill out an adoption application today! https://www.rspcaqld.org.au/expression-of-interest-to-adopt

Don't forget to include a photograph of your bird enclosure.
