Yesterday I received Molly's Pack'O'Bird and Birdy Gogo Yesterday! They are both wonderful. The 1st 2 pictures are of the Pack'O'Bird and the 2nd 2 are of the Birdy Gogo. I wasn't sure she'd like them but she took to them on the 1st try. We even went on a small trip to the pet store and she picked out a new toy and visited another bird friend that is still there from when we bought her (a pineapple conure) the poor thing. She started screeching at the sound of other birds, so it's hard to tell if she will screech a lot when we are out together or not. I have to test it out in different places. Today she went on a car ride to pick up my son from school and was looking all around quietly until....she saw all the kids at the school. She started screeching a lot whenever she saw a kid, it was kind of strange actually. I think either she is scared of them or she was saying "hi" to all of them individually? It was weird because she was also eating in her Birdie Gogo whilst screeching/saying hi. Hmmmm. Next I think I will take her to Starbucks to pick up a coffee and see how that goes. Any advise on where you guys are allowed to take your birds would be helpful. I am worried if I do take her somewhere and she makes any noise they will kick out. I hope she will be calm and quiet so I may take her places without anyone even knowing! The Pack'O'Bird is bigger and more for long trips but the Birdie Gogo looks like a small backpack so I am hoping people will just let us wonder around the supermarket unnoticed if we are quiet enough lol! Know any businesses that DO for sure allow birds? I really love these packs...I will at the very least take her in the car a lot more, on plane trips and walks. Wonderful!

I'd also love to know where it's safe to bring a bird. I have seen youtube videos of people bringing their bird or other small animals into grocery stores and what not and I just don't know what I think of that but it'd also be nice to take Lincoln with me where ever. Lots of bonding time.

So cute playing with the ball!
I bought my Amazon the Birdie Gogo right after Christmas but it's been cold here so I really haven't gotten to use it much. Glad to know you like it.

It's cold here too. I parked really really really close to the pet store when I took her in so she wouldn't get cold. I have a heated seat in the car for her to put the Birdie Gogo on to keep her nice and toasty while riding along.

Also about the ball...she is weird with it. She plays with it but I think she hates it because she yells at it then attacks it. Then she goes onto her back and bites it so she must not be scared of it. It's the weirdest thing I have seen her do with a toy. It's also hilarious!

Salty loves his Pak-o-bird. I was lucky enuf to watch then build his, cuz they are made in Brooklyn. Did you know you can unzip every thing and make them completly flat , for cleaning them? So well designed. But be wary, most supermaarkets will not let you in with a bird

Also, when in the car, Salty like to see out the windows, so I put one of them small coolers under the Pak to raise it up before seat belting it in. It give Salty nice commanding view of the whole road. I also found out he does NOT like being in the car at night, the bright lights freak him out and he cowers and whimpers in the corner of the Pak. I have to cover him up on 3 sides, leave the side to me open and put the courtesy lite on so he can see me. Poor little guy is not a night traveler. But as you know , the Pak comes with covers already installed. So well thought out.

Fly free Plum, my gorgeous boy.
Ooh not seen the birdy go-go before. We love our Pak-o-bird.

Have been able to take Plum into a Fish and Chip Restaurant, he obviously stayed in his back pack and was extremely good except for the odd "hello". It was funny watching people trying to work out where it was coming from.

Would not risk a supermarket to be honest IMO. Usually if you ask and assure that she will stay in the carrier most people are very interested and agreeable but just don't expect it. :)

The Pak-O-Bird offers some protection with the roll down flaps and we have used these to keep him warm if the breeze has been straight on him and was cool.

Enjoy and look forward to reading your tales.

I couldn't decide between the two carriers. The cover flaps would come in handy. I guess I felt that the Birdie Go Go gave them more visibility out. Also so many more color options.
