I just have a question, when you use leashes on birds, do you get a lot of attention? I bought one, but now I'm afraid to use it because of fear that a little kid might try to pull one of the birds to see it or something bad will happen. But again, the question is, do like, people stare at you a lot and see you as a weirdo? That's what my parents tell me, But I don't know.

A lot of attention lol people do look and sometimes ask to see them and out of everybody on the forum I think I'm the only one who brings them into shopping centres and stuff and I never had anyone pull them although the wouldn't get a chance to anyway lol and if kids do want to see them their parents tell them to be gentle.Also dont you mean a harness or Flightsuit? I use the flight suit for going out but I use the harness for going out flying.

The Aviator Harness is escape proof otherwise I wouldn't use it.And I mostly use the Flight suit and never had a problem with it.

I decided I'm not gonna use it. It's an iguana harness and I'm afraid it might hurt them. I'll just wait until I get to Arizona on Thursday to buy an actual cockatiel harness.

Good luck with that. The only place I've seen them sold here is in a store called "tropical kingdom", and I'm honestly not sure if they still sell them. You can probably call them and ask, though. Here is the website: http://www.tropicalkingdom.com
If you're going to ask, ask if they have the aviator harness. When I went there, that was the only harness brand I saw, and from what I've heard, it's one of the best you can get.

Okay! I went to that store once with my uncle, who happens to love birds, but I wasn't looking for a harness at that time so I didn't see it. I'm gonna ask him if he can take me again this time around and buy one.

Alright. Hopefully they'll have one in a cockatiel size (which is "petite"). Last time I saw them in the store, the only sizes I saw were extra large (XL) and extra-extra large (XXL).
When are you coming to Arizona, if you don't mind me asking?

What the flipping nugget sauce! I went on their site, clicked on the bird section and saw this:
What the literal duck face. We get them here for like 150 pesos, Wich is around I guess 8 dollars or something. That's a total rip off.
