Can You Help Me Find a Helmet for a CAG With Photosensitivity?

Last Updated on February 16, 2023 by Catherine Tobsing

Hi Mitch,

I have been searching for a “helmet” for a CAG (Congo African grey vs a TAG Timneh African grey) who has a photosensitivity issue in her eye from cataract surgery.

I want to find her a device she can were to make her eyesight more comfortable.

The parakeet in the helmet jumped out at me when I saw it. Do you know anyone who might be able to fabricate such headwear for Marie?

Thanks for all the helpful info,

Thank you, Mitch. Will check that post out.

Practicing a two-minute drill, Pat, I found that you can look at falconry hoods.
