Has anyone had luck with an aviator on a caique? I got one for Chichi, x-small and it seems too small for me to get it comfortably over her head. I would love to take her outside.
Probably there is someone somewhere who has had success with a caique and an aviator harness. I dont believe I would have success with any of mine though.
If they did wear it, I would have no peace of mind. They are too active and energetic to tolerate it and would spend every waking second trying to destroy it.
I have a small for my Quaker and I feel the same way: the collar is kinda small and tight but considering how thin a birdie neck actually is, I am guessing it´s the right size. You don´t want it to be too loose. Penguin doesn´t like the harness period. We´ve been doing daily training sessions to get him to accept it. I put it on him once before and all he wanted to do wash chew it into pieces. I opted for a Pak o Bird to take him outside instead. Good luck though!!!
I got the avian harness. I think first I had the xsmall. I could not get it over the head. I changed it in a bigger one I think it was the small it worked.
My male is a hand raised so not a real big problem putting it on. Malika ? No chance she always wants to put it off a him when he has it on. (Sometimes I put it on when my blood relatives come because he would kill them if he could - and with the aviator he can be outside his cage event though they make a visit)
Once you slip it over her head, check it by slipping your finger between the neck part and her neck. If you can get your finger in there it's not too tight.
xsmall is too small. i think a regular small is a good size. Xsmall in aviator is a good size for a cockateil or a GCC. i got small for my 2 cakes. they dont use it though
