Geier

Mixed Breed · Male

Our Senegal Parrot named Geier came into our care at the end of May. We are now looking for a caring home for the little guy. Geier is looking for a suitable home with at least one companion animal and a large aviary with multiple retreats, perches, and climbing opportunities. Daily flight is a must for Geier. The right temperature and lighting must always be observed, especially in year-round outdoor housing. A bathing facility and opportunities for occupation are also a must. Drafts and temperature fluctuations must always be avoided. Unfortunately, Geier also has his own set of problems: the little guy suffers from PBFD (Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease), a disease that affects the beak and plumage of the affected parrots. Since PBFD is highly contagious to other parrots, Geier will only be placed with animals that also suffer from the disease.

Unser Senegalpapagei namens Geier kam Ende Mai in unsere Obhut. Nun suchen wir ein fürsorgliches Zuhause für den kleinen Kerl. Geier sucht ein artgemäßes Zuhause mit mindestens einem Partnertier und einer großen Voliere mit mehreren Rückzugs-, Sitz- und Klettermöglichkeiten. Täglicher Freiflug ist ein Muss für Geier. Auf die richtige Temperatur und Beleuchtung muss stets geachtet werden, insbesondere in der ganzjährigen Außenhaltung. Auch eine Bademöglichkeit und Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten sind ein Muss. Zugluft und Temperaturschwankungen sind stets zu vermeiden. Leider hat auch Geier sein Päckchen zu tragen: Der kleine Kerl leidet an PBFD (Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease), einer Erkrankung, die Schnabel und Federkleid der betroffenen Papageien betrifft. Da PBFD hoch ansteckend für andere Papageien ist, wird Geier nur an ebenfalls betroffene Tiere vermittelt.

About Geier

What life with Geier looks like

Geier is a large adult mixed breed bird waiting at Tierheim Hamburg in Hamburg.

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 Geier, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Geier?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Hamburg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Geier on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Geier if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Hamburg 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 Geier 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 Geier 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 Tierheim Hamburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Geier 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.
