I really don't know about that which is why I keep looking for a link from you for these budgie sized flight suits, since I have not found them.

Wolf, this may have been what ParrotsForLife was referring to. http://www.flightquarters.com/bird-diapers/size-chart.html

Thank you kyrubas. I went to the site and saw the chart and it says that they make flight suits in sizes that are supposed to fit even parrotlets. Then when I try to check out the flight suits I can't find the flight suit, frustrating site to try and use. It did say that not all sizes are available, but I could not find out which sizes were available.

Hi, Emma! I'm Alyssa. Nice to meet you. *waves* :senegal:

I can't really vouch for budgies, but I was blessed enough to own a Cinnamon Pearl Cockatiel for about 12 years. Jeter was the sweetest bird (at least towards me--I never was able to socialize her properly, so she was very much a one-person 'tiel) and was very interested in spending time with me as I went about my day. She always loved tearing at my notebook paper whenever we sat down to get some schoolwork done. :P

I would say check some cockatiels out and see if any "speak" to you. Best of luck in your searches!

There is a huge size variation from budgie to budgie. My Greencheek conure has a harness and she is only about 68 grams. Some of the larger, English show budgies are bigger than that.

Of course, having a harness and using a harness are different things. I still have running shoes, for example...
