Mountain State Falconry Supply’s new kestrel bow perch is built to the precise dimensions recommended by author Matt Mullenix in his classic text, American Kestrels in Modern Falconry. We’ve worked closely with the author to replicate his proven system for safely perching and tethering American kestrels, one of our favorite birds and a delicate species that requires the upmost attention to detail.
 
These perches feature a shallow bow, a wide base, and a low-profile perching surface that together help keep a kestrel’s lightweight jesses and leash free of tangles. Minimizing the potential for hang-ups is critical to preserving feathers and preventing injury.
 
Perches exactly like these have kept numerous kestrels safe and healthy for decades, even when tethered 24/7. We use them ourselves and recommend them to anyone considering flying these fantastic little falcons!
 
GET GOOD GEAR
“Anyone can excel in falconry, given the right fundamentals. Good gear is essential to good husbandry. Whether you make your own or buy from a trusted vendor, details matter! The right angles, shapes, dimensions, and textures can make all the difference over the course of a season. Don’t settle for anything less than what works.”
—Matt Mullenix, author of Four Falconry Fundamentals

Produced in-house, our 3D printed digital micro scale attachment makes weighing your bird a piece of cake. The perch base sits perfectly on the included 1kg pocket scale and is easily removed so you can use the same scale for weighing feed in the provided stainless steel bowl. We use this scale setup daily and have been incredibly pleased with its accuracy and dependability.
 
We test each scale and attachment before shipping to ensure fit and functionality.
