Number6 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I got the medium and would suggest it. The collar on the small probably wouldn't be big enough for Kip's neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dblhelix Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Ack! Now I'm really confused!! Anyone else have experience/suggestions on the sizing? Kip is on the small side for a femal CAG at ~ 365 grams. So would I be advised to get a "small" or "medium" size aviator harness? Just going by weight it would seem the small is recommended...thoughts? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judenmink Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 dbhelix - I certainly wouldnt leave Elmo undupervised :-) I was thinking about having him on a stand just outside the open door of the grooming salon while I work inside about 3 feet away from him. Thats where I put his 'mobile' cage now during my work hours. Number 6 - I have the medium for Elmo and he is quite small. Jude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 LOL, I still haven't tried the one I got for Josey yet. I am going away for the weekend and so it will be next week before I can try it. Pitiful, just pitiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trina Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Hi everyone, I am new to the site, although I have had great advise from islandgirl. I just got my grey 3 days ago. He is 3 months old and so much fun to have. I am going to get the harness as well. Trina Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Hello Trina and welcome to our family. Congrats on your new grey, you are in for an unforgetable experience, a ride of a lifetime and they are so much fun as you are finding out. Maybe you will get to try the harness before me, I got mine several weeks ago but haven't had the chance to try it yet, planning to this coming weekend.

Guest briansmum Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 i got mine from 24parrot.com greylover, although you are in spain i would think it will br pretty quick delivery. they are the real deal with proper packaging and DVD. i reccomend the red one purely because it matches their tail and looks rather fetching LOL (only joking, obviously the colour doesn't matter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I have the red one too, but I wanted the purple one but were out of it. I am fond of purple but the red does match the tail feathers doesn't it, now I am glad I got the red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 ok so what size harness did everyone purchcahse? Do I go with medium or large? It says medium for Timneh grey but congo is a bit bigger. Thats what I had a hard time to determine. Large or medium. I even want to buy roller skates but dont know if I should get medium or large. I mean they are not as big as a Macaw.Helpppp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 medium for the harness, and i would say medium for the skates too. they only have little legs :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Medium Aviator Harness is what I purchased for Dayo, it fits pefectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pryde Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I got medium for Pryde, but it is a bit big. She only weighs 350 grams, so she is small for a CAG. She wears is though and hasn't gotten out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dblhelix Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Kip is small too at 365g. I also got the medium. I got it on her once and it looks like it will work (though maybe a bit big). She is tolerating it more and more, though after the first bloody incident I am actually following the instructions in the video and taking time to get her used to it! She will allow it to be draped over her now and remain quite calm, but she still may pull away so I want her to be even more comforable with it before I attempt slipping it over her head again... <br><br>Post edited by: dblhelix, at: 2007/08/22 23:39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 looks like you need to weight your grey then if it's on the small side around 360 you may wanna get the small one, if it's a big birdie like my brian who's 470g the medium fits great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeasarsDad Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Since Ceasars Wings have not yet grown out I have not played much with the harness.. I did think that I would produce a video on the first time I try it on Ceasar.. It should be as funny as it's informative.. So look for that video.. If I have some time I will do it this Saturday, the 25th of August.. I might not have it edited and posted until perhaps next weekend.. But I will do this video to show everything what this might look like when you try it on your bird.. OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
