How rehoming works here
A bird's entry is called a Flock Profile. It is written by the person who currently cares for the bird, and it stays in their hands from the first word to the day the bird leaves. Nothing here is automatic, and nothing is decided for anyone.

01
Meet the birds
Browsing is open to everyone. Search by kind of bird, area or age, then read the profile written by the person who cares for that bird.

Write to the Caregiver
Create a free account and send a first message through Beak School, so neither of you hands an email address to a stranger.

Take it slowly
Expect questions, expect to meet the bird, and expect it to take time. Ask for veterinary history and have your own avian vet lined up.
If you are the Caregiver
You write the Flock Profile yourself: who the bird is, what they eat, what they find hard, what a good day looks like, and the kind of home you are hoping for. Your own words carry further than a form, so write it the way you would tell a friend.
Your street, your address and the way people reach you are never shown publicly. The page shows a general area only. You choose who may write to you, and you can pause or withdraw the profile at any time, for any reason, without explaining yourself.
Rehoming a bird is not a failure. People arrive here after an illness, a move, a new baby, a bereavement, or the plain realisation that a parrot needs more than they can give right now. That is a responsible decision, and it is treated as one.
If you are the Adopter
Browsing is open to everyone, signed in or not. When you find a bird you would like to talk about, you reach out to the Caregiver through Beak School so neither of you has to hand over an email address to a stranger.
Be honest in that first message. Say what your home is like, who else lives there, how much time you have, and what experience you are bringing. Some Caregivers ask that you have finished the training library first, because they want the bird to land with someone who already knows the basics. That is their preference to set.
Expect questions, expect to meet the bird, and expect it to take a little time. A good match is slow. Ask for veterinary history, and have your own avian vet lined up before the bird arrives.
If you are a Rescue or a sanctuary
You are welcome here on the same terms as everyone else. Create a Flock Profile for each bird in your care, in that bird's own voice rather than as an appeal for the organisation, and keep the status current so people are not writing about a bird who has already been placed.
Your own application process, home checks and agreements still apply. Beak School does not replace any of it and does not ask you to change it.
Where Beak School stands
Beak School is the place you meet. We do not own, hold, transport, inspect or vouch for any bird, and no money for a bird passes through us. Any arrangement is between the Caregiver and the Adopter, and the responsibility for it is theirs.
We do read every Flock Profile before it goes live, we remove anything cruel or dishonest, and we will step in if someone is treated badly. Health and behaviour questions belong with a certified avian professional, and anything urgent belongs with your local vet today.
