Online Bird Shop - Bird Toys, Bird Perches, Bird and chicken Medications !!
We know how hard it is to find bird safe toys and Bird-Vet products On-line. All our Avian staff are more than a little obsessed with spoiling their own birds and the Bird-Vet-Melbourne quakers. Consequently, our reception has become a fully stocked Bird-Pet-Store with an emphasis on some of the most amazing bird toys, bird perches and bird play-gyms that you will see. If you can't find what you want - let know. The team at the Vet for birds are always looking for an excuse to get new products!
Events & Activities
Bird-Vet-Melbourne is always up to something!!! Our entire expert avian veterinary team is actively engaged with Avian community events and bird rescues. You will find us at major shows like The Pet Show or The Bird Lover's Expo.
We're constantly organising events too! From Chicken Day (yep chickens in tutus is a thing!) to parrot school.
Keep an eye on the Bird Vet's events page and follow us on social media if you want to find out what's next!!!
