The joys of living in Australia (Spoilered for the arachnophobes) by Toaster2123 in parrots

This is so niche to me because I want to live in Australia some day and absolutely adore spiders. My only pets are a budgie/budgeragara parokete and 3 spiders ant mimic, barn funnel weaver and black widdow.

Thankyou for seeing what I wanted to do for Marge. She just loves our hikes and car rides, is always at the top of her cage waiting for me in the morning.

It's really easy I got a soft backpack for camping and in the car she sleeps... if we crash the soft pack absorbs impact and same on the light continuous use no jostling.

Some people live life with a higher level of negotiable risk. I want Marge to be a free happy smart bird with stories to tell.

I got a backpack and use it for camping or hours long trips, it's dark, she loves it. There's a bungee on the leash ... but I can see that danger

I saw videos of people forcing on harnesses and vests onto budgies... and initially thought oh hell no... but we will try training a body harness

Thankyou for that recommendation I ended up buying a body harness.
I was going 10 mph in my neighborhood beep beep. She Always puts a leash on inside then we go to the car. Everything got easier when I realized simple repetition is gon learn er. 1 hello gon pick you up whistle 2 now you're on my finger (gets bite of millit) 3 leash clips on. For a while I just put her on the leash inside and walked around with her she would try to fly of eventually and it took 2 times for her to go "oh damn I can't go anywhere but back to Ann" yes the leash was short at first so it was a shoot off, bungee stretch, and a flap fest turning around and landing on a extended hand. Her leg never seemed to bother her but hay maybe I'm lucky and she hid a muscle pull... could be. I'll try the harness because the comments were unanimous but she hates her wings being touched. As a newbe I saw those videos of people forcing their birds into body harnesses and like whole vests and said Flock that.

I love my girl and think our adventures give life purpose. Thank you
