Amy a Blue Front 'Zon
Jonesy a Goffins 'Too who had to be rehomed :-(

And a Normal Grey Cockatiel named BB who came home with me on 5/20/2016.
Been thinking more about getting one. You all know Amy likes adventures,and if/when I purchase one,it would give me motivation to go walking. Living where I do now,there is a Wally-Mart about 1/4 mile down the street ( Amy likes going there to watch "the people of Walmart"...if you know what I mean lol..and in the other direct leads to the center of town with a park and quaint shops...prolly less than a mile away. I could also alternate with Beebs so he could get sunshine and fresh air. Maybe take the BOTH? I think Amy would like BB's company. Looked on Amazon and they have medium size for $275.
I know folks here have 'em..how are they?

Jim,

If you decide to buy, buy direct from Celltei. Create and account, sign up for their newsletter and receive 5% off for life. The medium is $275 - 5% = $261 and free shipping for the holidays.

I'd buy mine again.

I also bought direct from the manufacturer and after 5+ years of regular use, ours is still in great shape. Worth the cost! We have the medium size.

I also think it’s possible Amy and BB could ride side by side room wise, though not sure how that would work out with Amy’s obsession with BB.

Never owned one, likely never will. Love the idea, but we live in Red Tail Hawk Central and the constant over-flying would be a concern, especially from one of the younger Hawks.

And, just too add to it all. We are now seeing Eagle Fly-Overs and those folks cast a shadow when they pass over!

I'm certain that Amy will love it!

i love mine, and when I travel with Bumble all of the TSA agents remark on how nice it is-they see a lot of pet carriers. I will agree with the “buy direct” suggestion though. Pricing was the same or better as everywhere else and I was able to get it personalized with Bumble’s name for a little extra. I got it on Black Friday and with the holiday discount, the customization was a wash so how could I not?

I like mine.
I have only used mine a few times with Bingo. He really liked it.
Then the quarantine came down in So.Cal for that nasty poultry virus (cant think of the name).
Now the temp is so cold I would only use it for a trip to the vet or something.

The construction and workmanship is high quality.

Fidget - BFA, Addy - Red Lored
I have one for fidget and I know he loves being outside. However, he constantly chews on one of the seams. He hasn't broken it through but I'm sure he will eventually. He has broken a couple of threads, (Or whatever it's sewn together with.) So I end up tapping on the side of it the whole time he's in it to try and get him to stop chewing.

I'm hoping Addy will be better in it.

Same here. Levi chewed up the one side and I paid $50. to get it fixed. He destroyed it not long after that. It's a bummer b/c he really liked it and enjoyed coming out with me on walks & hikes. It was really nice, but he didn't care. :D
At that price, I'm having a hard time buying another one, knowing it's fate. We only got 2 seasons out of it.

She doesn’t seem to mind it. I don’t think she loves it, because we generally take cross-country flights so there long. She doesn’t love being in the pack a bird for that period of time. However she seems perfectly fine when we get to our destination and I think we’re both happier to be together when I’m not home.

She's a good girl. Levi would hate to be in it for that long. He's so spoiled. :p

Fabulous, amazing, wonderful. One of my best avian purchases I’ve made.

Get it, you won’t regret it.

Jim Salty is fine in his medium PoB, longest he has been in his is when we visit you and the fids, so maybe 2-1/2 to 3 hours. He's never chewed on the insides, maybe cuz I have a few wooden hanging toys for him to bust a move on. But I can't see Amy and Beebs sharing one for any length of time, not wide enough. Might be issues getting them both in at the same time. Could they make a double wide PoB? or put a divider in it?

They are very well made, with lots of thought put into materials and construction. They are made right here in Brooklyn, I got a great price when I bought it at the factory, literally.

They can make anything for a price. As an example, this one was for a conure and a grey ($489)
