wing clipping or not  Reply with quote  

I would just like to know how you all feel about clipping your bird's wings. I have read and read over and over how it is a good thing for them to feel like they are dependant on you to "travel" have also heard that it does tame them somewhat but also have read that it could be tramatic for them. I have 2 greys that are not clipped and they do fly around the house...looking for me most of the time. I do debate with myself alot about clipping and taking them outdoors but have also looked into harnesses. Not sure if my 2 boys would go for that. But please let me know how you feel.
thanks
