Flight Suits and Blood Feathers

Hello!

Since we like any parrots we have to be members of the family, they tend to spend a lot of time out and about with us, which requires wearing a flight suit with the feces-catcher (I call them poop suits, my sister doesn't think it's funny hehe) around the house so as to not engage the wrath of our father when a certain little green cheek (*cough* Groot *cough*) decides to jump onto his head and relieve himself of extra weight.

My concern is to do with blood feathers. I know they are super sensitive, so is it likely that wearing a flight suit could agitate the blood feathers?

Thank you and warm regards,
Pero

Groot will probably let you know one way or another if it bothers him. Perhaps try putting it on a little looser if it rubs against pin feathers. :)
