    Help with harness training!

    My bird had a bad experience with the harness and I really want him to get used to it. He runs away from even the sight of it! I have it dangling on a perch by his cage but it doesn't seem to be working. Help!

    Harness training

    Hello everyone! I’ve had my sun conure for a bit of time now and she’s now fully tame. It is currently winter where I live so I thought I’d buy the EZ harness and start training her so that when the warmer weather comes back, I can take her out with me. My question is how long does it typically...

    GCC Harness Training, Impossible to put wings through...

    So this is my first post here. I have exhausted any ideas I have or anything I could research online so I decided it would probably be best to ask others! I have been training my one year old, greencheek conure, Gordi, to wear an aviator harness for almost 3 months now. At this point, my green...

    Harness Training Update

    Hi again lol so I’ve been working with my 3 year old sun conure Mari for a few days now. At first she hid in my shirt from the harness. Now, I hold it up and put some seeds in front of her and the only way she can eat the seeds is if she puts her head thru the hole of the harness. And she’s on...

    Hi! I bought my first harness for my three year old female sunconure. She’s extremely friendly towards me. We share such an amazing bond. So the weather is getting a lot warmer and I want to be able to take Mari out with me so I ordered a harness. I knew it was going to be difficult because Mari...

    One step forward, 5 steps backwards [harness training]

    Over a year ago I ordered a harness for Kermit with the hope that, someday, I could get her to wear it. I really didn't have many expectations on timeline. I took it slowly, made a game with wearing rubber bands to get her used to something around her neck, and ultimately got her to the point...

    Harness Help : Selection - Training - Use !

    I was wondering if anyone could recommend a flight harness for my Bella (she's a vosmaeri eclectus.) I'm guessing there's going to be different brands available and I'm not really sure where to start. Are they all typically of the same quality or are there any to be avoided? I'd hate to buy...

    Outdoor Picture Thread

    I brought Teeko outside for the second time earlier! He's doing well with the suit, still nibbles on it though. Just look at him enjoying the fresh air! All the leaves are shining a vibrant green, coated with droplets from the rain last night. Took him over to see the goats- they were ever...

    Aviator harness for the lovebird?

    I wonder if anyone uses harness to take their lovies out? I have Aviator petite that I use for my gcc and tiel, but I was thinking maybe I can put it on Coco as well? Or would it be too big? She is pretty large for a lovie, and her body is not smaller than my gcc's, just shorter and bulkier...

    Are FlightSuits an option?

    Me and Teeks are getting along swimmingly and I'd love to be able to spend more time with him. However, I've had trouble finding time to spend with him the past couple days. Often my dad is playing loud music, which scares him, and sometimes the front door is open so that we can get some...

    Ozzie outside in the Aviator Harness!!!

    So, today, I took Ozzie outside in his aviator harness for the first time! He has been doing very well! He didn't bite at all, will let me lift his wings up with no problem, didn't try to get away, and will let me take the harness off him. Since its the first time, I only stayed out for about...
