Bird Flight Suit Frequently Asked Questions
What is a FlightSuit?
FlightSuits are cleverly disguised soft, stretchy, reusable pet bird diapers. They allow your feathered friends out of their cages both in and out of the house; worry-free from embarrassing accidents (poop) or dangerous fly-aways.
Easy to put on and take off. Great for travel. Breathable, easy to clean fabric. Use them over and over for years. The patented “poop-pouch” safely keeps droppings away from birds and you.

Bird Cage Bar Spacing & Perch Diameter
Windy City Parrot recommends
the following birdcage bar spacing and perch diameters.
Every website has recommended cage sizes. We can’t recommend what size cage to buy. We don’t know your needs. We don’t know how much room you have. We don’t know how much social time your bird experiences.
You may have many small birds you seek to house together. Our point? Choose the size cage that’s right for you and your bird. Just make sure the bar spacing is appropriate.

Avian Respiratory System
AVIAN RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Birds possess a very unique and efficient respiratory system. They lack a diaphragm, have non-expandable lungs and a system of air sacs that extend into many of their bones. Vocalization is by means of a syrinx, not a larynx as in mammals.
Anatomy
The nostrils or nares are usually located at the base of the beak. In psittacines (parrots) they are located within the area of the cere. Amazons have a structure known as an operculum inside the nare which helps prevent inhalation of foreign bodies. In most birds, the nares are readily visible, while in certain birds-such as crows-they are covered by feathers.
Appropriate Types of Perches for Bird Cages
It’s OK for a perch to be a little smaller or larger in diameter. Basically don’t install a perch too large that a bird’s foot can’t grab comfortably (except for manicure perches) and may cause a bird to fall. Conversely, too small a diameter may allow a bird’s foot to wrap all the way around and cause pain or injury to its own foot.

A Greenwing Macaw owner and a very good customer were in the shop the other night. We got to talking about the “intimidation factor” of big birds. The man’s children are adults but are not comfortable around his Macaw named Mac.
He and his wife got the bird at 5 months old and have had Mac for about a year and a half.
