Are leg tethers safe for poultry birds? I know that they are not safe for parrots, but can poultry birds were a leg tether for training purposes?

What sort of training?

What sort of training?

For example training the bird to stay perched on your arm.

For example as shown in this video:

People usually tether roosters to keep them from reaching each other and fighting.

You don't need a tether for that

But are tethers safe for poultry birds? If I want to bring a pheasant outdoors I don’t want the bird to fly away. Would a leg tether be sufficient or would it dislocate their leg?

They'd just be fighting against it of they were panicking.

This isn't a good idea. They'd be fighting to get free, potentially dislocating the leg in the process. Plus, there's really no reason to bring them outside of their pen

I now agree thanks!
