Galah For Sale Melbourne
Are you from Melbourne and looking to own a Galah for a pet? Visit our stores in Hoppers Crossing, Ferntree Gully and Norlane, Geelong. Please be warned and read the information below.
Galahs are naturally destructive and noisy.
Adolescent Galahs are prone to behavioural problems; they will become noisy, aggressive, and destructive if not provided enough physical or emotional support. At sexual maturity, some individuals may develop seasonal behavioral problems such as aggression and become challenging to manage. They can develop additional issues of biting and screaming.
99.99% of these Galahs sold in Australian markets are trapped from the wild, and 50-60% of them, including cockatoos and corellas, carry a severe and incurable disease called ‘Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease (PBFD). Irrespective of whether you are told that a bird is bred in captivity, it is improbable that it will be.
Common Health Problems Galah Bird
Self- Mutilation and Feather Picking Galah Bird
Both disorders can be caused by household stress, boredom, or sexual frustration.
Feather picking not attributed to a medical cause is an obsessive-compulsive disorder in which a Galah picks at, plucks out, or chews on its feathers.
Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease (PBFD)
The virus targets the center of the developing bird’s immune system; infected birds often become immunocompromised and die of secondary infections, either bacterial, viral, or fungal. Currently, there is no known cure for PBFD. Infected birds usually die up to a year after showing clinical symptoms of the disease.

After you have read the information above and still have your mindset on a Galah, we recommend you contact DNA Solutions in Rowville Melbourne and obtain a PBFD test and a Psittacosis Test.
If we have convinced you that a Galah is not the right bird for you, we would love to recommend many different hand-rearing or tamed baby pet parrots.
