The link to cockatiel harness is deleted as that is a commercial site and not appropriate here. Shanlung 08:53, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi to Shanlung! I put up a page long ago with a pictoral (tutorial) on how to put on the widely used parrot harnesses. I thought it would be good to add. My site is non-profit, so it's not really about promotion. (Actually costs me money, lol!) It's about education, so if the link is welcome here, I would like to add it: http://www.parrotphotos.us/harnesstutorial.html

It pains me to watch that video of one of those commercial harness being used. It will take about a couple of seconds to get Tinkerbell harness on, a harness tailored to fit, without needing all those buckles and iron-ware on the bird itself.

You should think seriously of making your harness to Tinkerbell design Shanlung 08:56, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As a matter of interest, do you have any close-up images of your parrot wearing a harness? That would be a really useful addition to the article... --Kurt Shaped Box 18:49, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. There are many close up photos of Tink in her harness, shot by shot of each stage of harness construction. Of even greater importance will be the training that you both must do together.

Read this lifejournal summary of that process URL to Summary of Tinkerbell and Guide to the training and harness details here http://shanlung.livejournal.com/8284.html

For photos, you should start with this. Even more URLs are embeded in it. http://shanlung.com/wtinkharnessdennis.htm Shanlung 12:41, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What about mentioning that many parrots love their humans and would never try to fly away in the first place?[edit]

First of all, are these legal? - Hannah G.

Can parrots offer sexual satisfaction and if yes, how exactly? Please go into detail. -Gorg D.

Gorg D., that is most certainly not legal. I have informed government authorities about your activities, would you be as kind as to post your full name. Thanks. - Hannah G. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.193.170.240 (talk) 10:54, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
