Friday Five: Flighted vs Clipped
Happy New Year to everyone who uses the Gregorian calendar!
Flighted vs. Clipped:
1. Are your parrots flighted, or clipped?
2. If flighted, has your bird ever been clipped? If clipped, has your bird ever been flighted? If so, was your bird's behavior or "personality" different?
3. Do you think it's safer to keep a bird clipped than flighted? Why or why not?
4. Some people think flight is essential for a parrot's physical and mental health. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why?
5. If your bird is flighted, is there anything that would convince you to clip her/him? If your bird is clipped, is there anything that would convince you to grow out her/his wings?
