Timneh Parrot

Rainbow feathers, clever beaks and voices that can whistle, chatter or copy sounds! Come and meet Timneh Parrot — a treasured resident of our tropical sanctuary in Epping. Stand quietly, watch closely, and you might spot a blink, a stretch, or a cheeky scramble that makes you fall in love in five seconds flat. Behind every smile is a story. Animals like Timneh Parrot often arrive because a home changed, a rescue needed space, or someone realised wild beauty deserves expert care. We promise warmth, the right food, enrichment and keepers who know each personality. When a child presses their nose to the glass and whispers ‘hello’, that second chance becomes a lifelong memory — for them and for Timneh Parrot. The Timneh parrot, also known as the Timneh grey parrot or Timneh African grey parrot, is a West African parrot. Formerly classified as a subspecies of the grey parrot Psittacus erithacus timneh, it is now considered a full species Psittacus timneh. In aviculture, it is often referred to by the initials TAG and is commonly kept as a companion parrot. Adults often remember: Species of bird. At Get To Know Animals we turn those wild facts into daily care — the right heat, humidity, UV where needed, climbing or digging space, and food that matches what Timneh Parrots evolved to eat. It costs over £35,000 every month to feed, heat and care for 300+ animals. Parrots need lifelong fruit, pellets, foraging toys and specialist avian vets — a single macaw’s annual care can rival a family pet’s entire budget. Adopting Timneh Parrot, sponsoring a meal, funding the wish list or joining Patreon isn’t ‘extra’ — it’s how Timneh Parrot eats next Tuesday when the weather is quiet and the till is slow. You can help today: adopt Timneh Parrot, buy a treat, play Get To Feed Animals, or become a monthly patron. Every pound is love you can measure in full bowls, warm lamps and wagging (or flicking) tails.

Symbolic adoption from £30.00
