The AVIATOR Pet Bird Harness and Leash: XX-Large Red

I waited a few weeks to write the review to really test it out.So I bought this for my 3 month old double yellow headed Amazon thinking I would try it out after trying out 2 other types of harnesses on my other birds. I thought If nothing else I would use it to get him used to wearing it while he was young and if he chewed it up while learning that would be okay, because I would buy another when he is full grown. The one I ordered had said it was right size for yellow naped Amazon, so I figured it would fit him for a few more months since double yellow heads are a bit bigger...Boy was I wrong. In just the 2 weeks from the time I received it his head has already grown too big to fit. This is by no means the sellers fault in this, but my own.In the past I had ordered different types of harness for my cockatiels and although I liked the other kind of harnesses the each lacked the durability that I wanted for a larger bird. As for the fact this one is all one piece when others I had were harder to put on. This one is durable at least the harness itself. It is a very thick material and I feel like it would take a long time for him to chew it up if he ever wanted to, although I plan to teach him not to and so far he hasn’t tried to chew. The leash part think could be a little thicker. It’s thick enough and I would trust it for one of my smaller birds but for one like him I wouldn’t trust it not to last through a good chewing session. At the same time I don’t plan to have him in it without constant supervision to let there be a chew session, and I always have back up such as a bird carrier backpack. I also know I wouldn’t leave him unattended long enough to chew. I also love that there’s not all these complicated parts that make it take even longer to get it on as others I have tried out. And for a bird who still isn’t full grown I felt like this was much safer then others in being against the crop. It doesn’t pull in the chest area which I appreciate.We did have a blast the first time I got him in it and was able to take him for a walk around the yard to check the mail and it was nice to finally get him out without being in a carrier. He had fun talking to neighbors passing by, charming them with yelling out “hello” to them and he had me laughing with babbling away excitedly whenever he saw something new. I can’t wait to take him out again. He wasn’t too happy when I first put it on him even if we had been getting him used to touching his wings and being wrapped up with a towel. He did enjoy being out and now he doesn’t mind us draping it onto him while formula feeding, since his head doesn’t fit that’s all we can do with it now.I will be buying a larger one soon. This is great to have if you have the time to spend to get your bird to wear it, and it is probably the best made easiest one to put on of those I have tried.

These are the only harnesses that I've found that are comfortable, light, and sturdy enough to ensure my bird will remain under control. The drawbacks are that birds CAN chew through the material but not as fast as they can chew through the leather harnesses. Chewing also results in frayed strands of nylon fiber which isn't safe for birds to eat. When the strands become "frayed" though, I will take a lighter to the frayed ends and melt them flat and remove any pieces left. Birds can chew through the cord easily but the cord isn't where birds can readily chew on it so that's never been a problem. I've gone through 4 of these now. I recommend using a size "small" for Green Cheek Conures, though the site recommends "Petite/XS". The smaller size is less comfortable and more of a challenge to get on and off your bird. I would start with small for a GCC and if it's too big, get a smaller size. Get the size larger than they recommend and your bird will be more comfortable with the harness training process.

I got this for my hand raised budgie. He's 8 weeks old. I have a strong bond with him and love being with him, I'd like to take him out in the yard with me without the cage so I looked into harnesses. I have put this 1 on him 1 time so far indoors and it wasn't easy. He sounded like he was crying and it made me so sad. He didn't like it but after he had it on and realized he could fly still he was ok. Occasionally he would just fall over like a cat does with clothes on which made me sad but I do think he will adjust and accept it after using it a few times. I definitely wouldn't try this with my pet store birds. They would probably die of fear if I tried. I haven't tried it since the 1st time because it did emotional trauma to me just hearing him make the sad noises. But he was all snuggles and smooches after he could stand up and stretch. I'm not sure if I will keep trying. I'd like to. The idea is lovely but I'm not sure it's worth it. I would like to add the slide on it could be smaller for this small harness. It's absolutely bulky and takes up half his stomach area and it's too large to put between his wings. Also it was easy to get the harness on but the slide wasnt sliding easily, I had to inch it up but by bit, which took forever and made the struggle that much harder for my bird and me. If I do keep using it I'll add a few pictures since I didn't take any the 1st time.

Haven’t been able to train my bird yet, but hopefully one day.

Es un modelo ligero y fácil de usar y de colocar para lasMascotas de casa

Hat mir gut gefallen aber mein Vogel möchte es nicht.

Expensive but well made. The recommended size for my breed (ring neck dove) fits perfectly. It goes on easy and comes off easy. The adjustment slider is secure to move so it feels like it won't slide unnecessarily when in use. So far we've only practiced with it indoors but have had no issues. Although it can be a bit awkward when the bird reaches the end of the lead and tries to keep flying.
