Adopt Blaugenicksperlingspapagei

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Ernesto, Blaugenicksperlingspapagei, male, is looking: For a new home with an aviatrix or a fellow bird, with loving people who can provide everything he needs. Ernesto's partner Henrietta passed away just before Pentecost. As we do not wish to continue the husbandry of the Budgerigar Society of Germany, we want to enable the bird to live with his own kind in the future. At our shelter, he lives in a small flock with Alexanders, Rosellas, and Lady Gouldians. During the day, the birds have free flight together, while each bird species spends the night in their own cage. Compatibility with others: He was very friendly towards Henrietta and her predecessor. The other birds either ignore him or, in Budgerigar Society of Germany (BGSP) manner, make it clear that he wants to take a specific perch or be alone at a feeding station. Ernesto was born in 2019 at a breeder in the Dachau area. We took him in over the summer of 2020. The bird is missing a toe on his left foot, which does not hinder his climbing. For about two years, he occasionally lifts his right foot while sitting. We have discussed this with a vet. He may be suffering from sciatica on such days. Apart from that, the bird appears unremarkable to us. We therefore rate him as "has no diseases and no handicap." Ernesto is wild green. In the photo, he is sitting to the left next to Henrietta. We look forward to your contact.

Ernesto, Blaugenicksperlingspapagei, männlich, sucht: Ein neues Zuhause bei einer Artgenossin oder einem Artgenossen, bei lieben Menschen, die ihm all das gewähren, was der Vogel braucht. Ernestos Gefährtin Hennrietta ist kurz vor Pfingsten verstorben. Da wir die Haltung von BGSP nicht fortsetzen wollen, möchten wir es dem Vogel auf diesem Wege ermöglichen, auch künftig mit Seinesgleichen zu leben. Bei uns lebt er in einem kleinen Schwarm mit Wellensittichen, Pflaumenkopfsittichen und Nymphensittichen. Tagsüber haben die Vögel gemeinsamen Freiflug, die Nacht verbringt jede Vogelart in ihrem eigenen Käfig. Verträglichkeit: Gegenüber Hennrietta und deren Vorgängerin zeigte er sich sehr umgänglich. Die anderen Vögel ignoriert er entweder oder macht in BGSP-Manier klar, dass er jetzt einen bestimmten Sitzplatz einnehmen oder allein an einem Fressplatz sein will. Ernesto wurde 2019 bei einem Züchter im Raum Dachau geboren. Von dort haben wir ihn im Sommer 2020 übernommen. Dem Vogel fehlt am linken Fuß ein Zehenglied, was ihn beim Klettern nicht einschränkt. Seit ca. 2 Jahren hebt er gelegentlich beim Sitzen den rechten Fuß an. Darüber haben wir mit einem Tierarzt gesprochen. Möglicherweise plagt Ernesto an solchen Tagen der Ischiasnerv. Davon abgesehen wirkt der Vogel auf uns unauffällig. Wir bewerten ihn daher mit „hat keine Krankheiten und kein Handicap“. Ernesto ist wildfarben-grün. Auf dem Foto sitzt er links neben Hennrietta. Wir freuen uns auf Ihre Kontaktaufnahme.

About Blaugenicksperlingspapagei

What life with Blaugenicksperlingspapagei looks like

Blaugenicksperlingspapagei is a senior mixed breed bird waiting at Federnhilfe in Germany.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Blaugenicksperlingspapagei, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Blaugenicksperlingspapagei?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Federnhilfe handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Blaugenicksperlingspapagei on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Blaugenicksperlingspapagei if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Federnhilfe will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Blaugenicksperlingspapagei already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most birds on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Blaugenicksperlingspapagei isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Federnhilfe early rather than rehoming privately; they know Blaugenicksperlingspapagei and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
