    Ted Richards has five parrots – and he just wanted to be a part of the gang. So after obsessing over them, the animal lover decided to become just like them. Pity he’ll never be able to fly.

    The animal lover has tattooed colourful feathers, tattooed both his eyeballs and has 110 tattoos with 50 piercings, as well as the obvious split tongue (but isn’t that reptilian?).

    To top it all off, Ted went through a six hour surgery to have both his ears chopped off.

    I am so happy it’s unreal, I can’t stop looking in the mirror. I think it looks really great. I love it. It’s the best thing that has happened to me.  I’ve done it because I want to look like my parrots as much as possible.

    I’ve had my hair long for so many years my ears have been covered up. I have to admit I did used to get teased at school about my ears but that not the reason I’ve had it done.

    The kids are running up to me and asking to see gory photos – they just love it.

    His next step? To find a surgeon that will turn his nose into a beak.

    A retired shoe factory worker, Ted got his first tattoo in 1976 and has since covered up almost all of his body. But he’s not just branded with ink – he had a peace sign branded on his left shoulder with a 750 degrees centigrade hot iron.

    His facial transformation is a tribute to his “babies” – Ellie, a green winged macaw, and Teaka, a harlequin macaw and Timneh, Jake and Bubi.

    The only issue Ted has is keeping his glasses in place. No worries though, he has had two small metal pins added to the side of his head.

     I went to the supermarket the other day and when I went in I said ‘blimey it’s so windy out there it blew my ears off and everybody had a chuckle.

    But seriously, I love the fact that I’m unique and I have always wanted to be different.

    Sure, mate.
