Cheap falconry bells are a foolish economy. Brythen has ripped off both of the two eagle bells I bought him recently.
Also, the central problem with breakaway collars is that, when caught on a twig, they break away. (Rosie Roo had a breakaway collar, because Brythen loves to nibble her neck and I am a bit worried that if she wears a collar, he might get himself caught up in it. But it broke away. Now Rosie Roo is in the nude, apart from when she has her harness on).
