I am a breeder and do believe birds need the excercise and should
beable to fly BUT:

This website page with Dean Moser is not helping you! From what i
understand Deans Pet Male Eclectus was called home one night and at
the moment of flying home he was hit by a car and killed. Very
Sad. Dean is an Exceptional person who knows the Care, Diet,
Breeding and Training of parrots but no one can can be prepaired
for Accidents that are waiting to happen.

Predators are a problem but oviously so are other things that are
not expected.
