Did I put the flight suit on my conure right?

[Mrspy]

Hey guys, I bought a flight suit for Kiwi and just recently got around to putting it on him. He seems very uncomfortable(but i figured as much) but I just wanna make sure I put it on correctly. I don't want him to hurt himself or anything. I'll post the pictures see what you guys think. Thanks!

Hahaha
yes that's correct
poor little birds great for us humans but they must be awfully unco to the birds
I'm not saying your being cruel please don't think that I just personaly don't like how overly unnatural they are for the bird
be kinda like us walking around in an absaling harness all the time
mmmm wedgy lol
I love the idea I just think they need to work on the design so it's not so Bulky
maybe if they mixed the aviator suit with a poop pouch on the back then it would be a bit more natural
anyways glad he's accepting it and you have much fun to come with your new freedom

It is on correctly, as far as I can tell. Some birds, from what I'm told, get used to them. I tried one for Levi(Linnie), and he was so awkward in it that I don't use it. Kiwi is a bigger bird, so he may adjust better to wearing it....

Ok great glad to hear it. Yeah at first he HATED it! But then he just started puffing up and got used to it. I think if I constantly put it on him he'll at least "tolerate" it.

Yeah I don't like how bulky it is either, it just dosn't look natural and i'd rather not put it on. But The diaper is nice and I bought some cotton circles today to put inside so I can dispose of them when he goes number 2.

It was kinda funny though I felt very sorry for him. I set him down and he turned his head around so much that he toppoled over onto his back and fell off my desk!!! Luckily I was fast enough to catch h im before he hit the floor.

I like that I can take him outside though, or it will be nifty when guests who prefer not to have poop on their shoulder or just don't like the fact that a bird is flying around them come over.

Thanks again guys! Glad I did it right.
