A British man has cut off his ears to look like his parrots.

Ted Richards, 56, who has already has 110 tattoos, 50 piercings and a split tongue, has now had both his ears removed by a surgeon in a six-hour operation.

He shares his home in Bristol with his four parrots as well as South American green iguana Iggy, and pitbull terrier Candy, reported The Daily Telegraph.

His girlfriend, Suzannah, 31, supports his Loved One.

Richards is now planning to find a surgeon prepared to turn his nose into a beak, reported Lenta.ru, a Moscow-based online newspaper.
