Welcome new users! Please take the time to read this post or the sidebar as our sub has a few specific rules to make sure all birb posts are good birb posts!

211 Upvotes

What exactly are birbs? Birbs are birds that are being funny, cute, or silly in some way. Take your time to browse our existing posts to get a feel for the perfect birb posts.

The title must be one word and be some variation of 'birb'. Borb, beeb, berb, etc.

A few things to remember when posting a birb:

  • Birbs and mammals interacting is generally a bad idea, all mammals have a certain bacteria in their saliva which is potentially deadly to many species of birds, even a playful interaction could be disastrous. Please don't submit any posts of bird/mammal interactions, even harmless-seeming ones (with the exception of natural interactions).

Examples: [1] [2]


  • Please don't post stressed, injured, or upset birbs, especially not ones purposefully stressed out in order to make a "funny" post. A good birb is a happy birb. If the birb gets itself into some sort of shenanigans, then that's ok, as long as it's unharmed or not super stressed out.

Examples: [1] [2] [3] [4]


  • Birds are more fragile than cats and dogs, so please avoid posts of people improperly handling their birbs or blowing smoke in their face.

Examples: [1] [2]


  • No NSFW posts, not even tagged ones.

If you're unsure whether or not your post breaks any of the above rules, feel free to contact the mods!

Yeah sorry for neglecting this sub, I think most of the other mods are dead or something. So I should probably look for other mods.

Requirements: don't be an asshole and remove spam/bot posts and anything that breaks the sidebar rules.

Edit: apparently I can't add anyone right now because I'm listed as inactive. So idk how long it'll take to be considered active again

Cute Birb I created for my game:
(He guides you to his nest so that you can help him bring back his egg)

This poor darling flew into our staffroom yesterday by accident and banged himself on a window trying to get out. I scooped him up and checked him over and he was really calm; even let me give him some head scritches! Once we were back outside he took off quite happily. ♡ I feel like I made a new friend!

Bud just flew down and landed on my coworker and has been flying between both of us. We gave him some water, and now he's just chilling.
