No more worrying about your bird flying away! This nylon bird leash and harness features an elastic leash that adjusts from the chest to the back as the bird flies and prevents injury as it reaches its limit. The escape proof, one piece design harness eliminates the need for buckles and clips. Simply slip the harness over your bird's head and pull their wings through, then tighten the belt to the bird's waist by pulling gently on the lead. Includes a free instructional DVD.

Installing the Aviator: The first few times you put on the AVIATOR will be a learning experience for you and your pet. The biggest inconvenience he is likely to experience is being pushed off balance while you learn to tighten the belt. If the experience begins to get frustrating for you or your pet, stop and try again later.

  1. Expand the belt of the harness, pulling the leash through the slide to a diameter large enough so that after you slip the belt and collar over the birds head, you can pull one wing through the space.
  2. Place the bird in front of you on a stable surface. Right-handed owners face your pet to your right.
  3. Orient harness assembly so the back of the harness is on top and the expanded belt loop is directly in front of the bird.
  4. Move harness assembly toward bird passing the belt loop first and the collar second, over birds head until the belt is around the wings and the collar rests on the neck.
  5. With the collar in place around the birds' neck, pick up left wing and pull through space between belt and collar.
  6. Pull the belt to the right side of the bird until it is tight against the left side. Pull the right wing through the space.
  7. Tighten the belt by pulling the leash through the slide. Tighten until the belt is snug around the waist leaving just enough space to insert your index finger, between the bird and belt, on medium size bird. Space is necessary for the bird to breath and for the slide to rotate from the chest to the back.

good product

Pros:
Small and comfortable, Good size selection, Slightly elastic leash
Cons:
Not all colors available, Not avail in xs green
So far It's a great product. I have not been able to get my bird to wear it yet, but that is expected. It also appears that the company does not provide the harness in green for the size x-small, which is frustrating because green is the color my sun conure is most comfortable with, so I had to settle for black. I did notice that green was available for the x-large though. Very frustrating.

A wonderful tool
7/7/2011
 
 
Pros:
Well Made, Safe
Cons:
Can be hard to put on
We purchased two of these, one "petite" for a green cheek conure (63g) and a "large" for an umbrella cockatoo (700g). These were meant as safety leashes so the birds would not fly into danger on longer walks. Both are very well trained and do not normally fly off but every now and then there will be something that spooks them so we wanted an extra layer of safety. The included video is very helpful and it is absolutely necessary to follow those instructions. This is not a product you can use right out of the box. You must get your bird used to the sight and then the feel and you must get yourself acquainted with the design and use. Do it wrong and you will scare your bird for life and will never get the harness on again. Also, be aware that some birds will never get used to it. It took us about two weeks until both birds tolerated getting the harness on and every day they seem to mind less. But we are still not at the point where they accept it 100% and ignore it once it is on. That should give you an idea. Once the harness is on properly, the birds have full range of motion and can walk and fly just fine. The smaller harness/lighter bird does not move as easily as the big one which hinders the sliding of the leash contact point from front to back, which is one of the best points of this harness. Another minor problem for the small bird is that the leash exits the harness to the side which can interfere with the wings when on the back. Bottom line: This is a great product when introduced and used properly.

This product is amazing. I put it on as soon as i got it and of course my cockatiel was a little nervous but it just slipped on she started to just walk around in it. Super Easy to use!

EXCELLENT Product

Pros:
Escape proof, High Quality, Easy to use
Cons:
none
I was able to put on my Umbrella Cockatoo the first time with no problem. I previously used the Feather Teather for a harness and it was complicated to use and my birds never had the patience for me to finish putting on. This harness goes on easily, has the elastic leash with wrist loop and only has to be fitted once. My birds love the freedom.
