Ive been on the hunt for a 2nd hand pak-o-bird for a while. I couldn't justify spending $380 Aus without ever seeing one.
A lady advertised her eckie with all its belongings including the pakobird. I messaged her asking if she could sell seperatly. Never heard a thing and randomly got a message back. I was thrilled.
On pick up i found out that she had to rehome her eckie of 9 years as they were travelling around Australia. It made me sad that the little guy had to be rehomed....while i was buying the pakobird to travel around Australia with my guy one day. I felt this was a little ironic as these had been her plans only 4months ago from the purchase receipt.
Anyway, mixed feelings now. Pack looks amazing. Has anyone got one? How do you find using it. Tips?
Im going to order the dripless water bottle for hikes. Also looking at a detachable harness/lead of some kind. Hes flighted and loves being out on shoulder normally. Just not convenient for accessing everywhere in community. So pakobird for those times or if winds too strong etc.
