How to Harness Train Your Parrot!
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
A harness can open up your bird’s world to endless new possibilities! Harness training is important to get your bird desensitized to wearing a harness so it remains a positive experience for everyone.

He’s like huh? Wut dis?
I'm harness training my conure right now! He was comfortable with it from the start and after 3 days he went outside with it! But unfortunatly something went wrong during one of the training sessions, which was completely my fault, now he is really scared. But he's getting better again! And honestly I only have him since 2 months so I'm just going to take my time! He loves being outside, so I think once he knows he can go outside with the harness on, it will get easier.

This is much better than the training video that comes with the aviator harness! I am currently training my budgie and my cockatiel to accept their harnesses. Your timing could not be better, because your video is by far the best one I've seen and given me some usefull tips. My budgie will just yeet his head through the loop for a seed, but using millet will probably help teach him to stay for longer. Also the birb magnet thing to desensitize them to touch might really help him, because I can touch (and kind of grab) his wing, but only if I hold seed above his head to make him stand up really tall and keep him focussed on the seed. I really hope I can get him to wear it because I think he will love it. He already enjoys going outside in a small cage, but I think he will love the extra freedom he can get with a harness :)

This is such a needed video! I really want to harness train my budgie and I had no idea where to start! Lysm❤
What a sweet relationship you obviously have with your birds! My little old man Quaker (Pickles), is too settled in his ways and won't accept the harness but I think it is so awesome when a bird can accept this. I just waited until he was too old. Tried a different brand of harness years ago but it was MUCH more difficult to get on which is probably why he was less than thrilled! The one you used is so much more open and bird-friendly! Being able to be outside has to be such a good and positive experience for them. Thank you for the well made and helpful tutorial!
That’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. I would love to get my bird used to this so they get to experience more of life with me!
Amazing. Just got a cockatiel last Saturday. looking at ducky reminds me of him/ her. ❤️ your vids
I never watched this video before starting harness training with my tiel… I’ve done everything in this video to a T so far! She’s gotten through all of the “wing hole” technique within a few tries! I’m at the handling stage which is going to be the longest😅 that’s the stage I am at while watching this video, and I’m so glad I did because it has some great tips and I wasn’t sure how to try getting her comfortable with the handling. Willow’s done soooo good so far, but she’s never liked being touched so this will take lots of time and patience! Thank you for the video Elle! You helped me decide to get Willow in the first place over two years ago and I love my bb unconditionally!!
your videos saved me!! currently raising 4 cockatiels and your videos make the process very comforting! thank you :))

I love how you explain exactly what to do and why. I don't have any birds at the moment, but I would like one. I really blew it with trying to harness train a Sun Conure I had. He was given to me from a friend of a friend. I'm not really sure how old he was. I did manage to switch him from all seeds to pellets and good veggies. I was his 3rd home. He was LOUD! You can't own birds and expect quiet though. Anyway, George (my Sun Conure) lived with us for 5 years. I never got him harness trained. But he went outside in a small carry case similar to what Ducky is in. I enjoy your videos. Thank you for the information. It's fun watching you interact with your birds.
Thank you for a great video. Kermit is so cute! I'm working with my Green Cheek Conure, Milton and his harness training too. It is a slow process!
