Im just curious..
Are there harnesses good for budgies?
Or should budgies not wear harnesses in the first place?

It’s said that budgies are way more skittish and tend to be more alert and antsy when in new places and environments including the outdoors.
I think there are harnesses made for budgies if you look hard enough cuz I could have sworn I saw one but some harness brands don’t even market their harnesses to so little of a size.
Hope this helps.

In general budgies aren’t great with harnesses and walks, as stated above. But every bird is different so if the owner thinks their budgie will do fine, I’d recommend the Mini Wings or Aviator harness.

Wouldn't recommend Aviator for a budgie, though. The straps are just too thick for their little bodies. Remember, ALL parts of a harness have to be proportional to the bird, not just the strap length. I do recommend Mini Wings, though, as all the harness parts are proportional to the budgie.
