🦜 Wings! Controversy! Why Would You Clip Your Parrot's Wings?

The only reason we clip wings is for our parrot's safety. Some of the most bedazzling colors. I hate clipping their wings.

However, some of my parrots walk and fly into trouble. They go harass other parrots. So, we clip their wings so that they don't fly onto another parrot's cage/home, which is their safe space. I am a strong believer that each one of my parrots (actually, every creature in my home) has the right to have a hassle-free safe space all their own.

Other parrots, like my Catalina Macaw, are too big to fly around and I walk her- she loves going out on my arm to see what's up with the sky! She is not trained to free-fly, nor am I willing to take on the inherent free-fly risks at this time, so for her safety and enjoyment, she's clipped at this time. Things change and their flight feathers grow out, so who knows what to tomorrow will bring, but for now, this is where I feel the best, safest choice is for her.
