Questions about a harness for My African Grey.
She is 30 and really wants to “go for a walk” whenever I take the dog.
She stands guard by the door and flaps her wings which she does whenever we put jackets on.
The thread below triggered the idea for this post.
It’s time to revisit the general subject of where to put your bird when it’s out of the cage.
It’s also time to look at some common sense pet bird-keeping ideas.
From Facebook:
“How do I get my bird to stop biting my neck?”
Answer: “Don’t put them on your shoulder until the bird is trained.”

HELP!!!!!!
I have a real problem and need to fix it asap – doing what is best for both birds ……
I purchased what I hoped was a male for my pink eyed yellow female Flash.
“Tiki” turned out to be a female and right about that time I had to move in with my elderly mother who had 2 back fractures and the birds came with me.
I also have another bonded pair male/female but the male is very old and past breeding age.
Stacy T. asks:
Are your indoor aviaries suitable for outdoor use?
Any articles on letting amazon have outdoor time in summer?
We live in SIL.
Seemed like last time I put him out he had some allergies around his eyes.

Hello Mz Tobsing
I appreciate your advice on light therapy as that cured the hormone problem for my little girl parakeet.
Now I have a new problem or question, please.
I have two boys and one girl parakeet each with its own cage.
The little girl has a larger cage than the boys.
All the cages sit on tables.
Birds act out at the most instinctual level – they are not playing games.
The original Quora question was:
“What does it mean if your pet bird hides under a table/chair?”

One of our two cockatiels passed today.
We have had a pair of males for 14 years and they were 4-6 years old when we got them.

I put money down on a conure that’s going to be coming home in two months.
I’ve been hearing not to put it in the room that you’re not going to be in regularly, but I have a small living room in my apartment and already have three chatty budgies.

Hi Mitch,
Seymour was picking on the left side lip of my stainless steel sink the other day and I think she removed the caulk.
As of last night, I have water leaking out of the area whenever I turn the water on more than a tiny stream.
Sheila J. asks:
Why is my female budgie being so selfish and mean to her partner they have been together 1 yr and all of a sudden she won’t even let him eat.
I have to watch her shes real mean to him.

Dear Sheila
