My birb loves his harness soooooooo much, it's never hutlrt him, and i havnt taken him outside yet, should I take it away? I fell like he would hate me if I took away his fav thing
Hey, I've had my budgie for around 2 months and he's still scared of me. He has only came out of the cage once before when nobody was in the house, he eats millet from my hand, but isn't tempted to perch on my finger for it. Any advice?
I would NOT recommend letting budgies fly free. They will not come back most of the time because they get distracted with all the new environment and get lost. Also they could be attacked by wild birds that are living in your area. Get them a big outside aviary or put their cage outside but let them only fly free inside a safe environment.
I totally agree but maybe the budgeis harness that you put around their body and wings will be good for them. Maybe even a little comfrotable, but never let them fly free cuase they'll get distraced and might not come back. When I first bought my budige and htey were still baabies I thought I would let them outside cuase they were little babies and couldn't fly much. Also they would be in my protection. So I let them out and in a few weeks they escaped but luckily all I had to do was climb my neighbors fence across the street to ge them. So don't let your budige fly freely unless their inside of your home.
@EvaDa Nugget yea that’s why they call them special harnesses for budgies because they have everything measured for a budgie the size the flight and everything
I know I'm late but I found this today and let's just say I cannot take it seriously LOL. There are so many points you made that just make me wonder if any actual research on harnesses or how to use them was done. Here's a few things that stuck out to me: -Comparing harnesses to clipping wings I mean I don't really understand the point here. Clipped wings mean a bird has limited mobility and little to no flight capabilities whether they are in their cage, in a room or around the house, or outside; while harnesses should only be used on occasion, when it is unsafe for the bird to be able to fly off. Especially at the start of the video, you made it sound like they're used to remove all freedom of flight and instead force the bird to be with you; which is entirely untrue if harnesses are used properly and the bird is trained and desensitized properly. -Claiming harnesses are uncomfortable or cause harm/damage A properly made harness, made from the right materials, correctly fitted to the bird and put on carefully and properly should not be uncomfortable, limit movement, or damage the bird's feathers, wings, etc. -The point on birds being jerked back when they reach the end of the lead/string A well-designed harness, as I've found, usually include a large section of elastic, to give the bird some warning and resistance before gently pulling them back, rather than suddenly jerking them back. This also means a bird can learn to turn around or change direction when they start to feel resistance. -Stressing the bird, risking damaging feathers and wings, etc., while putting the harness on and taking it off A bird should be properly introduced to the harness, and steps should be taken to teach the bird what's going on while the harness is being put on. For example, if you look up a video of someone introducing a harness, you'll likely see them teaching the bird to stick it's head through whatever loop it needs to go through. They're introduced to their wings being handled and being put through the loops, and there's a lot of work before the harness is even properly tightened, let alone the bird is taken outdoors with it. If the bird is being stressed, you'd need to take a step back. If they're being harmed at all due to the harness, you should check the fit and design of the harness and check you are using it correctly. (as well as check your bird physically and mentally before trying again) I could go on, but I don't want to piss people off. These are just my thoughts. I agree with many people that harnesses are not for every bird, nor is outdoor flights. Please, do your research, take it slow, and don't rush or force your bird (or yourself!) if they don't enjoy it or aren't ready. (also, I don't recommend attempting free flight: even if your bird is flawless indoors, there's a whole new level of distractions, dangers, stresses, and more that are found outdoors - but you can find more on that in others' comments or on other videos if you look them up.) thanks for reading, stay safe! :)
100pc agree with everything you say. Much handling or training goes into it. You have to have an excellent bond with your bird to harness train. My minimacaw comes out daily on the harness. She never tries to fly off unless she gets a fright, in which case she does a lap around my head. Never gets feather damage and she goes out 2hrs a day. I agree this video is poorly researched (normally love this channel). Free flying budgies is an incredibly bad idea due to their size and the potential predation.
Free flying that small of a bird is even more dangerous than harnesses training them a hawk doesn't look at a macaw and go yeah I won't to pick a fight with that bird because there big and colorful wich also makes them easier to see when free flying.A bugie a hawk could swop and eat in 2 seconds because there so small.And there harder to see where they are in the sky.DO NOT FREE FLY WITHOUT PROFFECINOL TRANNING.He makes it sound easy I promise you if you take your bird out without professional training you will lose him/her.No matter how big or small
@@haileykennedy8950 It's not an excuse whether you're writing a school essay or not. Proper grammar should be standard and always needs to be present in order to avoid confusion and misunderstanding.

Even though what you are saying is true, people would rather listen to someone credible and grammar is a major thing to consider.
@@farfreez6367 No, I’m saying that a small bird, like a budgie or canary, should fly in the safety of indoor areas or an aviary. Outdoor free flight is very dangerous for small birds because they are so small and light that they could be carried away in the wind with no way to get back. Generally, with big birds, they wear a GPS on their tail so that they can safely free fly and be tracked. There are still no GPSs that are small enough to fit a budgie, and would most likely weigh a budgie down disallowing them to fly. If there were GPSs made for small birds, I would have no problem with free flying a small bird outdoors on a day that’s not windy. Unfortunately that still doesn’t exist.
I don't think that cutting bird's wings is an excuse to prevent them escaping. It's like cutting human's legs off to avoid them escaping the house during this pandemic
@rejitha gopan they should not stay inside there cage all day they should fly just make sure that u don’t leave them alone and maybe put something to not let the birds in there but still let’s air in
Mine are out of cage all day but they're recently looking out of the window so much and seem like they would love to be able to fly longer distances than what they can indoors. Especially my hen flies the whole length of the house but still wants more! Maybe one day we can try free flight...
@@wwondertwin you can also train them to fly for exercise. I raise my arm and the birds take off and do a few laps. They love it when I am involved and parakeets chirping are on the tv
I love how you show the love in taking care of these beautiful precious creatures. I learn so much about how to care for my budgie pair from watching your videos!
Hello beautiful, It will be nice to take you out of coffee someday. You seem like a nice person. I was browsing through when I stumbled into your page. I can't seem to send you a friend request on my end so I decided to leave a comment here. Can you send me a friend request? It will be nice to meet a new friend like you. I have no bad intentions towards us being friends my dear. Thank you
no he has 11+ budgies, right? and he ha a *child* ???? whattttt im so happy for him srry i havent been on the channel for a while i dont know that he had a child
The harness isnt the worse thing ever like u can use a carrier if u were thinking of using a harness but do not clip ur birds wings because it makes them lose ur trust
if you put the harness on right and properly train your budgie, it doesn't hurt the bird at all. with high quality harnesses, the fabric its made of should be very soft, and the leash it's attached to should be elastic so that if your bird flies away, it feels only a miniscule amount of tension and flies back to you safe and sound. basically, as long as you get a high quality harness (like the aviator harness for example) it should work very well and most likely will not harm your budgie.
@@chickengenders7899 Do you know any ways to desensitize my budgie to touch, she loves getting scritches at times, eats from hand easily, and recalls back to my hand when i call her. But any touch elsewhere with hand or object is rejected.
I complete agree with you, harnesses are not a solution. Maybe for big birds but not for such smal cuties. Our birds can fly free in the whole appartment. But the most time they spend with us in our dining room. There they have their cages, water, food and toys. We have a big cage in cas we have to travel with the flock. On one evening we had our budgie Sid in this cage with us in the garden. The cage has water, food, toys and a shadowed place, too. We thought he would like fresh air and sunshine. But as you know for sure budgies are curious but at the same time very scared. He sits the whole time on his perch and didn´t even react to us. He got to much impressions and didn´t really like the situation. So we gave it up after this first attempt. Free flight is not an option because of the reasons before. We live in a city of 300K souls. Although our garden is very quiet, we think one siren, loud traffic noice or church bell and little bugie will panic an fly away. And even if the flight will last only 3 or 5 miles, you´ll never find this little guy in a big city.
I agree,I would NEVER harness a budgie,they're way to small ! But I do have a harness trained cockatiel and I think thats different cause cockatiels and larger birds can bear the harness !
Hi everyone I agree that you can let your budgies free, let them fly out the cage whenever they want, play with them, and take care of them all day! Edit: please do not let your bird outside if they are not trained well. Thank you!
Thank you for making such high quality content about budgies. There’s so much bad information out there, and good people might accidentally do bad things to their budgies.
harnesses aren't that bad i personally dont use it because my budgie hates it,but it depends on how u make it look like to the budgie/birds and how u try to proceed to put it on the bird
if ur talking about birds flying freely its called free flight training and or if u talking about the leash its called a harness also people use it so birds can go outside without flying away
@@JohnCena8351 but it’s safer than free flying because a lot of people think that if there bond is strong with ur bird it would prevent them from flying away if they take them out without a harness or carrier or without proper training and that’s what ends up with the bird flying away so a harness would be better than free flying
@@JohnCena8351 I already have my way of taking my budgie out with her more comfortable but in my opinion i think that a harness is overall one of the better options than others apart from the carrier
I will buy a budgie harness NOT to train it but so that my budiges can go into the outside world and not just the inside of my home and their cage. Sure it depends on the thing I can teach my budgies to do with a budige harness but I will buy the kind that you put around their body and wings so that they have space but can't fly away. I might teach them a few things but if those things can be taught without a budgie harness then I will try to do it that way unless other wise. So the main reason that I will buy a budige harness is so that I can take them into the outide world and let them explore but in my grasp because I don't wan them to escape of course. They might not like it but in my opinion they will like the outside world becuase that's where their parents were born but they weren't. My budgies will be able to go outside but only with a budgie harness and they will be comfrotable not becuase I said so but becuase I'm going to buy the on that you put around their body and not aroundt their feet.

Well it will be based on the material we use, and also if we don't use a harness we can't take our budgies out. They couldn't even survive outside if they fly away from us. I recommend harness but which is good and comfortable for birds. We can't just let them stay on our home they're whole life, we should take them out once In a while.
What do I do if she gets too scared outside when I’m training her to come back? I don’t want to do the next step of taking her outside because she might get overwhelmed and fly away... how do I slowly introduce her to it? She can come when called inside I just don’t want to move to the next step
If you are talking about a budgie, budgies are not the best free fliers. Unfortunately, they scare so easily and can fly away in an instant no matter how well trained they are. The best thing to do is to build some kind of avairy or something where the budgie will be able to have freedom, but not be able to get hurt. If you're talking about something like a cockatiel, gcc, or bigger, then birdtricks is a great channel to get tips from! There are other good channels, but I have only watched Birdtricks so far. Good luck!
Hello, I have my budgie that have his beak way too long, and I don’t have the opportunity neither the money to take him to the vet for a beak trim ( I’m quite poor because of lockdown) but the thing is that he’s wild, I didn’t had the time to tame him yet and I’m scared to hurt him when I’m holding him or trimming his beak? What should I do ? :(
I need your help... My badgie has blood fither on both of her wings and i don't know what to do.... I have to know how to take it out.... Its important.... 😭😭
My cockatiel cannot fly. instead she plummets into the ground, often hurting herself. She has fully developed wings but has no idea. I have wondered whether getting her a harness will lessen the times that she hurts herself.
I hav a question My budgie mother had 3 eggs And those 3 eggs hatched Today I got a news that budgie mother killed or ate them Why and how a mother can eat her kids ? 3 of them are gone.
i want to get a pet budgie and it has many ways were we can't close but it can escape so i was thinking after taming it i would give it a good life and allow it to go outside with a harness and i would put it on when we go outside and take it off when it's inside
Can u help me. I have two budgies.from beginning i put them together in cage.they still they always fight.😭 They don’t trust me either 😔😔. What can i do?
seperate them into two cages or you might wake up to one of them dead. then focus on gaining their trust. watch this channel video about taming/gaining their trust well worth it plus other good videos
I got a baby budgie and i WOULD NEVER EVER HARNESS HIM he my best buddie and im always carefull with him also you are the best owner ever god bless you 😊
⚠️HEY GUYS I NEED HELP! ⚠️I have 2 budgies! They are taken great care of, have a nice cage/toys, and i’ve had them for about a year now. The only problem is.. is that they won’t bond with me! They get really scared of me. They aren’t clipped anymore, but idk if i should do it again since they’re not tamed. But that also makes it super hard for me to take them out their cage and insure their safety. (they can’t fly super well) what should i do? I really want a good relationship with them, and also be able to take them out their cage a lot more.
Do NOT clip them, please! If you bird-safe the room they're in, you can let them out of the cage to fly freely even if they're not tame. Just leave the cage door open and they will eventually venture out by themselves. It can help to put a stick outside by the cage door, so they have a littel perch there to land on or take off from. Birds need excercise even if they're not tame, and they will always go back to their cage eventually since they usually love their cage and feel safe in it. Just wait them out (do this on days where you don't have to leave the house for several hours, in case they take a long time wanting to go back to the cage). Make sure food is always served inside the cage and nowhere else, and they will go back by themselves when they're hungry. Build a little play area on top of the cage, they will most certainly stay there in the beginning. To help them bond with you - always use millet! You want them to associate you with positive things, and millet is the way to go. Always feed them millet out of your hand, do not put it in the cage for them. Since millet is such a high value treat for budgies, making sure it always comes from your hand will eventually lead them to associate your hand with treats and positivity. Also - take it slowly. You can't tame a bird, but you can earn its trust, and this is a slow process. If the bird gets scared, panics and flies away, you took it too far for their comfort level. Take a step back, start from the beginning. Don't take it personally when they panic or if they don't want to engage with you, they're their own personalities and may not be interested in bonding with you. Some budgies just don't want to bond with a human, and that's okay! I have four budgies and two of them are just not interested in hanging out with me. That's fine! They're all different. :) I hope this helps a little, feel free to ask if you have more questions! Best of luck!!
My budgie is 8 years old, he cannot fly properly anymore because his vision got really bad. Everytime I let him out he flies into something or he falls down. I am very scared he is going to injure himself. I cannot let him out of the cage like this. Should I get a harness, so he can come out and won’t try to fly away, or should I not let him o it completely? What should I do?
What do you think about a harness for a budgie? btw. Click LIKE for this video! Thank you 🥰🥰
Alen it's right we should not harness them
I don't know harness can hurt the bird
I just don't like those people who clipp off their birds' wings and who put harnesses 😤

And even if the flight will last only 3 or 5 miles, you´ll never find this little guy in a big city.
I agree,I would NEVER harness a budgie,they're way to small ! But I do have a harness trained cockatiel and I think thats different cause cockatiels and larger birds can bear the harness !
That’s not rlly different- it just a different bird
It is cruel stop it poor cocktail u don't care then a pity shame on you
@@heatherjoy479 hahahah what a stupid comment
@@parister97 not stibid is cruel they shouldn't put a harness on any bird so mean off that person is what Alan was saying don't do it .
@@heatherjoy479 I know a guy that he slaps his budgie when it's too noisy cause it never shuts up. Then the bird calms down
ElleAndTheBirds harness trained her Green Cheek in I believe half a year.
Harness training a bird is okay as long as they’re okay with it, but forcing them to wear one is actual abuse
Hi everyone I agree that you can let your budgies free, let them fly out the cage whenever they want, play with them, and take care of them all day!
Edit: please do not let your bird outside if they are not trained well. Thank you!
Brids are real rulers of the skies 😍😍😍😍🥰
My parakeet fly free and come bake
In the thumbnail Mooncake was looking cute. Looks like Mooncake was taking preparation for a war..🤣🤣🤣

Thankyou so much!
Oh I understand now, I just wanted to bring them with me where ever I go😔. I guess letting them fly in my room is better😊

Hi
@@lassiandthebudgies4003 Hi
Hey man.Iam a big fan of you and your budgies.Watching your channel more than 2 years and you really helped me alot.Thank you.😀.
So nice of you 🧡🧡🧡
Thank you for making such high quality content about budgies. There’s so much bad information out there, and good people might accidentally do bad things to their budgies.
harnesses aren't that bad i personally dont use it because my budgie hates it,but it depends on how u make it look like to the budgie/birds and how u try to proceed to put it on the bird
Is it ok to put a harness on a different birds like a green cheek conure, quakers, or cockatiels
Yup, it's pretty common!
Aww all of your budgie are so cute I only have two budgies
Good Video😊
If I put on lucky she gonna fly everywhere
very nice budgies, I love budgies
They are so cute just like an angle so cute awww lots of love and best wishes to your budgie family 😍🤩
0:35 They are in the new cage yeees
Hmm... Nibbler loves to hide and Mooncake loves your hair... yep, I see the similarities :'D
Angel is just... magical
They are all magical and beyond this world 🧡🧡🧡
Is there any harness that would be ok for my Budgies
I didn't even know that was a thing.
It's called being "free like a bird" so why would anyone put a leash on a budgie.
if ur talking about birds flying freely its called free flight training and or if u talking about the leash its called a harness also people use it so birds can go outside without flying away
@@emilyherrera7201 Yeah but it's dumb. It's dangerous for birds. At least the smaller ones.
@@JohnCena8351 but it’s safer than free flying because a lot of people think that if there bond is strong with ur bird it would prevent them from flying away if they take them out without a harness or carrier or without proper training and that’s what ends up with the bird flying away so a harness would be better than free flying
@@emilyherrera7201 Don't take your budgie out then. Pretty easy
@@JohnCena8351 I already have my way of taking my budgie out with her more comfortable but in my opinion i think that a harness is overall one of the better options than others apart from the carrier
I will buy a budgie harness NOT to train it but so that my budiges can go into the outside world and not just the inside of my home and their cage. Sure it depends on the thing I can teach my budgies to do with a budige harness but I will buy the kind that you put around their body and wings so that they have space but can't fly away. I might teach them a few things but if those things can be taught without a budgie harness then I will try to do it that way unless other wise. So the main reason that I will buy a budige harness is so that I can take them into the outide world and let them explore but in my grasp because I don't wan them to escape of course. They might not like it but in my opinion they will like the outside world becuase that's where their parents were born but they weren't. My budgies will be able to go outside but only with a budgie harness and they will be comfrotable not becuase I said so but becuase I'm going to buy the on that you put around their body and not aroundt their feet.
I train them from starting
I mean when I buy
First close the room and feed with your hand
In starting you have to cut some tether of bird
@@nameless3114 no don't clip wings
How does one “gently scold “ a budgie ??
Idk look it up probably! Or ask a pet store about it!
Use your baby voice
Hello beautiful, It will be nice to take you out of coffee someday. You seem like a nice person. I was browsing through when I stumbled into your page.

Well it will be based on the material we use, and also if we don't use a harness we can't take our budgies out. They couldn't even survive outside if they fly away from us. I recommend harness but which is good and comfortable for birds. We can't just let them stay on our home they're whole life, we should take them out once In a while.
What do I do if she gets too scared outside when I’m training her to come back? I don’t want to do the next step of taking her outside because she might get overwhelmed and fly away... how do I slowly introduce her to it? She can come when called inside I just don’t want to move to the next step
If you are talking about a budgie, budgies are not the best free fliers. Unfortunately, they scare so easily and can fly away in an instant no matter how well trained they are. The best thing to do is to build some kind of avairy or something where the budgie will be able to have freedom, but not be able to get hurt.
If you're talking about something like a cockatiel, gcc, or bigger, then birdtricks is a great channel to get tips from! There are other good channels, but I have only watched Birdtricks so far. Good luck!
thank you guys, i was about to get a harness, but now i know they can get strangled. so i changed my mind. :)
it all depends how ur bird is comfortable with it like kermit from elle and the birds doesnt get strangled because it is comfortable with it
Hello, I have my budgie that have his beak way too long, and I don’t have the opportunity neither the money to take him to the vet for a beak trim ( I’m quite poor because of lockdown) but the thing is that he’s wild, I didn’t had the time to tame him yet and I’m scared to hurt him when I’m holding him or trimming his beak? What should I do ? :(
Do not trim his beak!!! Wait to go to the vet.
@@adinaoana236 like I said I’m poor I can’t take him to the vet and I won’t be able to for a while.
I need your help... My badgie has blood fither on both of her wings and i don't know what to do.... I have to know how to take it out.... Its important.... 😭😭
Never in my life had I seen a bird with a harness ooof, just hearing it and seeing it looks bad :
I just got my budgies today. And I already love them to death
You’re so lucky bro! My parents won’t let me, they think it’s cruel.
@@caerachai3011 same! they think its cruel to keep them they said its better they survive outside
Can you train a adult budgie to free fly?
I love your budgies!
i needed this video
thanks :D
My cockatiel cannot fly. instead she plummets into the ground, often hurting herself. She has fully developed wings but has no idea. I have wondered whether getting her a harness will lessen the times that she hurts herself.
How do i go out with my buggig safely then
Can we keep them in AC room
Cute. Saludos desde México amigo. 🐦❤🇲🇽
You won my heart with that jacket trick 😍
i have a cockatiel and i thought to buy a budgie and put a harness on budgie now i understand fo not harness budgies
I liked this video
If you harness train and give them a treat in the harness then maybe they will like it but they mostly forget about the harness when you go outside
I hav a question
My budgie mother had 3 eggs
And those 3 eggs hatched
Today I got a news that budgie mother killed or ate them
Why and how a mother can eat her kids ?
3 of them are gone.
did you touch them without washing your hands? if bird mommas smell something else that's not their smell, they'll end up killing the baby
My green budgie kiwi have flown 2 times flown and came back with a torn cloth
How can you tell a budgie's gender??
@Abigail Davison Thanks 🙏🏻

So cute and I also have parrots
white budgie is so cuteeeee! you have many budgies adn how can you making them all happy? its impossible
i want to get a pet budgie and it has many ways were we can't close but it can escape so i was thinking after taming it i would give it a good life and allow it to go outside with a harness and i would put it on when we go outside and take it off when it's inside
An alternative could be the backpack bird carriers.
I tried all taming method but the budgie are not taming so what should I do
Just keep trying, mine didn't get tamed until 3 months after I got them. Some people's even take years, just keep going at it
Get some coach to train You!
Can u help me. I have two budgies.from beginning i put them together in cage.they still they always fight.😭
They don’t trust me either 😔😔.
What can i do?
eat them
seperate them into two cages or you might wake up to one of them dead. then focus on gaining their trust. watch this channel video about taming/gaining their trust well worth it plus other good videos
What if I use the harness for an outdoor walk, and I want to keep my bird of getting lost?
You will likely be better off using a travel cage or birdie backpack, if you have a budgie.
I agree with the carrier/travel cage idea if you want to take them outside. It's safer and more secure for them ☺
I got a baby budgie and i WOULD NEVER EVER HARNESS HIM he my best buddie and im always carefull with him also you are the best owner ever god bless you 😊
⚠️HEY GUYS I NEED HELP! ⚠️I have 2 budgies! They are taken great care of, have a nice cage/toys, and i’ve had them for about a year now. The only problem is.. is that they won’t bond with me! They get really scared of me. They aren’t clipped anymore, but idk if i should do it again since they’re not tamed. But that also makes it super hard for me to take them out their cage and insure their safety. (they can’t fly super well) what should i do? I really want a good relationship with them, and also be able to take them out their cage a lot more.
Do NOT clip them, please! If you bird-safe the room they're in, you can let them out of the cage to fly freely even if they're not tame. Just leave the cage door open and they will eventually venture out by themselves. It can help to put a stick outside by the cage door, so they have a littel perch there to land on or take off from. Birds need excercise even if they're not tame, and they will always go back to their cage eventually since they usually love their cage and feel safe in it. Just wait them out (do this on days where you don't have to leave the house for several hours, in case they take a long time wanting to go back to the cage). Make sure food is always served inside the cage and nowhere else, and they will go back by themselves when they're hungry. Build a little play area on top of the cage, they will most certainly stay there in the beginning.
To help them bond with you - always use millet! You want them to associate you with positive things, and millet is the way to go. Always feed them millet out of your hand, do not put it in the cage for them. Since millet is such a high value treat for budgies, making sure it always comes from your hand will eventually lead them to associate your hand with treats and positivity. Also - take it slowly. You can't tame a bird, but you can earn its trust, and this is a slow process. If the bird gets scared, panics and flies away, you took it too far for their comfort level. Take a step back, start from the beginning. Don't take it personally when they panic or if they don't want to engage with you, they're their own personalities and may not be interested in bonding with you. Some budgies just don't want to bond with a human, and that's okay! I have four budgies and two of them are just not interested in hanging out with me. That's fine! They're all different. :) I hope this helps a little, feel free to ask if you have more questions! Best of luck!!
@@TheSwanbear ahh thank you so much! i’ll definitely keep trying💕
Thanks
My budgie is 8 years old, he cannot fly properly anymore because his vision got really bad. Everytime I let him out he flies into something or he falls down. I am very scared he is going to injure himself. I cannot let him out of the cage like this. Should I get a harness, so he can come out and won’t try to fly away, or should I not let him o it completely? What should I do?
How you tame nimbler please make a video on nimbler my budgie is also like nimbler she bites my finger when I want to touch her please make a video
🤨I didn't even know this was a thing 🤔 I never heard of a budgie harness until today
You know now 😎
I dont reccomend using harness on them but I some tu times use the harness to take em outside and they love it ^'-^
Can u pls tell me wat to put on the surface of the breeding box
I am using CAT LITTER that is made 100% bioorganic
How can i take my bird outside?😔
Super bro
Well you can't take them outside without one because they will fly off and die. If you don't use one indoors they will run into walls etc
