Avian Fashions DIY Poncho Feather Protector X-Wide

Product Description

Introducing one of the newest in Avian Fashions' line of products to help birds that pick and pluck their feathers. Our DIY Poncho is designed for birds that pluck the tops of their wings or it can be worn in conjunction with one of our FeatherProtectors for overall coverage. We call it the DIY Poncho because every bird is different and you now have the ability to create a solution based on your bird's needs.

For smaller birds (size Small, Medium and Large), the Poncho will have a single layer (due to weight). For larger birds (size Wide through Colossal), the Poncho features a double layer for added protection. The elastic neck cording with bead allows you to easily cinch the neck to prevent your bird from getting underneath. Once you adjust the neck, just tuck the elastic under the cowl neck or flip it to the underside of the Poncho.

NOTE: Birds need at least 3-5 days of conditioning time before wearing a product from Avian Fashions and that birds should be supervised at all times.

NOTE: Avian Fashions are currently changing the look of their Ponchos. The one you receive may differ to the picture.

Directions

The poncho comes with a drawstring cord - open the neck to full width and slide poncho over your birds's head. Initally, be sure your bird is on a flat surface until he or she becomes accustomed to the extra weight. If your bird trips or is hindered by the poncho, trim micro fleece to desired length. The elastic neck cording with bead allows you to easily cinch the neck to prevent your bird from getting underneath. Once you adjust the neck, just tuck the elastic under the cowl neck or slip it to the underside of the poncho. The neck should be snug but not too tight - you should be able to get your pinky finger between the poncho neck and your bird.
