Today was Twiggy's first day.....

in her harness. Wanna see?

She screamed and hollered when it went on and off, but we were able to spend about 30 minutes out in the sunshine. She did pick at it and give me dirty looks, but we did it with just a few little nips on my fingers. It was nice enough here for her to go outside in just her underwear. LOL! di

The look she is giving you in this picture is priceless! I can imagine her saying "not only do you have me in this stupid thing, but you want me to pose as well?"

She looks just slightly more ticked off than Ollie does wearing that harness! What a cute little nekkid baby!

Oh, you are a brave, brave soul. I have yet to 'tackle' my greys with a harness. I have one blue and gold that we use it on and am very satisfied. Now if I could just get the courage, strength, determination, and extra blood supply to try the others with it.

When I was weaning my Timnehs, they all liked the harness, not a problem.
HOWEVER, once they started to fly it was a different story.
Only one of the three readily excepts it now.

IMHO, Your doing great getting it on a Congo! Goog luck!
