When can I clip the wings of an African Grey and help with Bandit2007-11-24 17:26:17

Then you can bring him out into the room; make sure it's closed so he can't fly out a window. If his wings are clipped he won't go far but he could blunder outside and get hurt. Let him get used to the room, then the house.

I had a hand-trained budgie that had the run of the house; we would leave the cage door open and he came and went as he pleased. They will usually return to the cage to sleep as that is "home."

Now is the time for a baby clip on your birds wings. Not too short since it needs to be able to glide to land without getting hurt. Don't beafraid of Bandit's big beak, it's not a weapon. Give him one on one attention in a room away from his cage for about 20 minutes a day. Offer treats for good behavior. If he appears to want to bite, give him a short angry look turning your head so that he see's only one eye. Then immediately go back to your happy learning session.

I suggest that you go to a place where they clip wings if you do it wrong you might hurt the bird and also it might leave bad memories of you doing that to him. I always take mine in to a bird store and let them do it that way there the villein not you. I only pay ten dollars to have it done and they also do his nails and his beak. On the other question I think you should take a chance. Maybe use a glove. Don't let him or her think you are afraid because they will sense it.

Don't clip his wings. The epitome of a bird is its power of flight. How would you like it if someone cliped your legs. Don't do it, mate.
