Adopt Herbert

Male

Herbert was found and is now searching for a new home, preferably also with a nice group of the same species. Its future dwelling should consist of an indoor and an outdoor area, each with at least 6 m². More space, around 10 m², would of course be great. Additionally, a large bath dish should be available. For more detailed information on enclosure design, feeding, and so on, please contact their animal caretakers. Would you like to give Herbert a home?

Herbert wurde gefunden und sucht nun ein neues Zuhause, gern auch bei einem netten Schwarm derselben Art. Seine künftige Behausung sollte aus einem windgeschützten Innen- und einem Außenbereich von jeweils mindestens 6 m² bestehen. Mehr Platz, ca. 10 m², wäre natürlich toll. Außerdem sollte eine große Badeschale zur Verfügung stehen. Wenden Sie sich für detailliertere Informationen zu Volierengestaltung, Fütterung usw. gern an ihre Tierpfleger*innen.

About Herbert

What life with Herbert looks like

Herbert is a large adult bird waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires specialized aviary setup with wind-protected indoor and outdoor areas of at least 6m² each, preferably 10m², plus large bathing dish

🇩🇪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 Herbert, answered.

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