Hello. I was wondering if the parrot jesses found on Kings cages site are safe for larger parrots (Goffin's Cockatoo and possibly a macaw). My Goffin's likes going outside but doesnt like things around her body very much.

To the best of my knowledge and not being an expert, I have never heard of jesses being used with non-birds of prey. They are usually used with hawks and falcons, possibly eagles (not sure about this one). You'd be likely to cause serious damage to a parrot with jesses. I know we have several members who have both birds of prey and parrots but they do not use jesses on their parrots.

Unless you really want to injure your parrot's legs. The two use their legs and feet in different ways.

NO, NO and NO! Do not use these on our parrots- they do not have the structure and build for this like raptors. Get a good harness or flight suit.

No No no no. Not safe for any parrot. Mark morrone (,aka Mark moron, he's notorious for risking ani mals lives on his show) has no idea what he is doing. Use a harness

Okay, thanks guys! I would hate for something to happen to my baby so I'll just get an aviater harness for her. Maybe the pink color? :)
