    Some important details I didn't address in the video about flying with birds:
    - Make sure you get any required paperwork before your flight! Depending on the airline, you may have to take your bird to the vet within a certain window before your trip and get a health certificate.
    - Always call ahead to make sure they have space available for pets on the plane! Typically it is one pet carrier per person, but some airlines will allow two birds per carrier. You will have to pay a pet fee per carrier.
    - You may have to take your bird out of the carrier briefly during security. Make sure you know how to securely grab/restrain a bird and ask to go to a special room to do this instead of out in the open. I'm so lucky that this time, the TSA staff at the airport were able to check the outside of the carrier without having me remove the birds!
    - International travel will be much more complicated with more required paperwork and possible quarantine. (Try to avoid unless you are moving and there is no other option)
    - The more stressed you are, the more stressed your bird will be as they pick up on our emotions. Try to remain calm and it will go more smoothly for everyone!

    My green cheek conure used to have one of those cheap carriers and it eventually fell apart due to rust. Luckily he wasn't in the carrier when it did. Now he has a sturdier carrier so whenever we travel it's easier for him to move with us!
    (I hope you and the birds took the move well! I can't wait for the new bird room tour!)

    Hi Elle I wanted to thank you immensely on this wonderful video that you created about preparing birds prior to travel. This was the only proper resource I found online that had this topic and tips explained in so much detail. We flew cross continent with our little lovebirds and we trained them following tips you provided. Thank you and God Bless you and your birbs

    I have a question, what if someone in the airport/plane are wearing perfume or spray something like that, what do you do? I'm always afraid to take my bird paces cuz I feel like there could be a toxic air fershener or something.

    My pet bird just died. I don’t know what to do. He passed about 30 minutes ago. He fell and I didn’t even know he was hurting. He passed away in my hands. He has a friend, Kiwi. They can’t live without each other. It’s like they were brothers. I don’t know how he’s going to cope. I’m crying so hard right now. They were with eachother for a year and a half straight without leaving eachother at all. If I’m crying and can barely breathe, I don’t even want to know the pain he is feeling. How to I help Kiwi cope with the loss of his best friend? I go to school so I can’t even spend much time with him. I won’t know if he’s eating or not.

      @keshavbridgelal1376 10 месяцев назад +4

    • @vmaik4s
      @vmaik4s 8 месяцев назад +6

      God I’m so so sorry for Kiwi’s loss. I had a similar experience with one of my birds abruptly passing away, leaving her best friend behind. I also had to go to school at this time so I understand how you couldn’t spend much time with your bird. In fact I found out she died in class and immediately went to the bathroom to cry. To be honest, I grieved more than the other birds as they were there to comfort each other. That’s something I really appreciate about having a flock, they stick together even when times are tough.

    I had one of those plastic bird moving cases and yes, its not permanent, it was just to get the bird to my house, but we did use it to bring the bird outside where it has been living for around 2-3 months. This was a concern to me because I couldn’t bring the bird out, but we found other ways to interact. I’m moving my bird back in very very soon, and I plan to use the plastic cage again. It won’t be a permanent thing; we will most likely get rid of it when we have the cage set up. So excited to start over with my not-so-new (like 8 month old) bird!

      I only got them 3 weeks ago so once they fully settle in a month or so I hope I'm going to start hand training with the the guidance of ur amazing videos then start carrier training I'm in the uk so probably won't start carrier training until next spring or summer because bird flue outbreaks occur around this time of the year in Cornwall I do have bird experience however so I know a fair bit not enough to be an expert because I study at duchy college one of the best animal based colleges in the UK this will be my third year but I love ur videos they are so educational so thank you for making them

    Elle I'm glad to hear about traveling with your feather birds... I also traveled to Boston in August with my sweet cocktail with Delta Airlines and used a travel backpack carrier and for some reason they took me to customs area and was asked if I could take her out the carrier? I did so refused being that it was her 1st time out the house and in a carrier, anything could of make her fly off so I took out everything inside the carrier except My bird... They where so serious so they swab & scanned the see through carrier smh. At the end omw I read on the tag "not to remove your pet from the carrier" I'm like don't they know that? Next time I'll have my bird on leash incase 😂🤦🤷

    Hi!, what is your opinion on what i should do?? I’ve been wanting a pionus maximillian for about a month and had been doing a whole bunch of research. I also would like to mention that I own a male cockatiel and I’m not sure if that would be a good fit because of the size difference and personality and beak size, what are your opinions on this situation? I’m open to hear some feedback and I would really would like to hear from your point of view. I would also like to say that I am in between of deciding if I should get a green cheek conure or a pionus parrot, I love both of those parrots but I’m mostly looking if it’s a right fit for my cockatiel so he won’t be harmed in any way. Thank you in advance for the information you might give 🙏🙏💓!.

    I love that she talked about the cages with the plastic bottom! My tiel Benjamin was in the cage while we were bringing it to the car and the bottom fell right off! He was lost and had flown five miles before someone found him! I still can’t believe that we got him back. Truly a miracle. But yes don’t use those to travel and if you do zip tie the bottom.

    @Alexx-_ Год назад +1

    Unrelated to the video but I have this bird that almost never goes outside of the cage. the door to the cage is always open but he just stays in there. i don't have a mirror or anything that would make him just want to stay there. Yes, the door to the cage is quite small but he does know the opening exists. I'm really worried. I have tried to get him our but when he is outside he doesn't really fly that much then either. I'm new to keeping birds, so there's probably some things I'm doing wrong but I just want what's best for them. Now I just let them choose wheter to stay or fly because someone said that I shouldn't worry about it because he is so new here, but that was a few monts ago. does it really take that long for canary birds to settle in? I have 2 in the same cage. The bird's partner I'm talking about here died just a few days ago so he's been kinda depressed lately so we got him a friends that has also been depressed and lonely so they both could get happier. The 'always staying in the cage' thing has always been here and didn't just start becase of that. I have thought of just getting rid of one of the walls in the cage so it can be easier, but what if they still just stay in there?
    please someone tell me what to do. I'm so worried. I don't want to loose them but what if I'm doing something wrong and it would be better to give them to someone else??
    help??????
