Muhammad al-Hakim, from the hobby of breeding birds, to a great love, reached the acquisition of the rarest and strangest birds, until his cages contained large sums of money as a result of his acquisition of rare birds, and he came out of that fleeting hobby headed by the “Riotim” team, a nickname in the Brazilian city of Riodo Janeiro, who specializes in guiding and educating people The best ways to deal with and raise birds.
Hakim started out as an amateur raising some animals in his home, until a friend visited him and advised him to participate in local festivals, after which invitations followed.
Hakim says I participated in several places, most notably the Tourism and Entertainment Forum in Jeddah, in cooperation with companies specialized in events. He presented a variety of free flight shows, "I was very happy and surprised by the beauty of rare birds."
Hakim added that it is not easy to raise birds and it costs a lot of money. If the parrot is in the first month, the cost of caring for it becomes high and decreases until it reaches the age of 5 months. The cost of feeding is 5 thousand riyals per bird, because it eats special types of grains, and it needs a lot of vitamins. If the bird grows up, the cost becomes lower, and sometimes its food becomes from the food of the family. “And what we, the Rio Team team, have in terms of birds, the prices of which start from 10 thousand riyals to 200 thousand riyals.” Hakeem indicated his desire to expand. His dream is to establish the largest farm for talking and rare birds in the Kingdom, and he calls on the competent authorities to cooperate with him to achieve this dream. As he has the potential and the ability.
He added that he met many personalities during his participation in the festivals, the most prominent of whom was Muhammad Al-Omari, General Manager of the branch of the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage in the Makkah region, who encouraged him a lot, and even asked him to participate in tourism-related events.
