Thanks for trying to help others learn about wing trimming. To many trolls out here to help anyone. I have owned my birds over 40 years now and some are free flighted and some or trimmed, Some will hurt themselves when fully feathered and others are just fine. Oh and by the way the ones that always say don't ever trim a parrots feathers have never had one hurt themselves and they most certainly will if you own them long enough. Not every landing in a parrots life will be a smooth landing and when in a house they will head for light and sometimes that means a big picture window and at least a sprained neck and at worst a broken neck , but my point is that its what works for you in your situation, I have my fully flighted birds in and outside aviary that was custom built by a house builder and cost me what my garage cost so i would love to see some of these people who makes comments on their birds being fully flighted and how much room they let their parrots fly in.
Thanks! Now I know how to properly clip my cute little Conure's wings, I didn't want to clip them without seeing the proper video and she doesn't know how to fly, she's always running into stuff and I hate seeing her getting hurt, So thanks for the proper demonstration! I can finally live worry free and My conure can live pain-free, Apples (My Conure) says thank you and so do I!
@Baconmuncher you're not cutting off the whole wing, just clipping feathers. They can still fly a bit and it's absolutely not abuse. Why did you even click on this video if you're against it??
I got my Indian ring neck from a breeder and they butchered his wing feathers!!! I didn’t realise that when I was at their house but when I arrival home I then saw his wings. They also only cut one wing so he was unbalanced. They cut his wings when he was only four months old!!!! He Tried to fly off his cage but fell and broke his leg :( he is fine now and very healthy and happy. his leg is completely fine.
@@yeet5836 he's too picky while eating n he is always silent. He Neva talks. But he is friendly wd us and luvs sitting on our shoulder while we study n do other household chores
Thank you so much for an amazing informative video. Where can I find Clipping scissors like that? also how long does it take for flight wings to come back in from trimming time?
I think i cut my parrot wings wrong and now it's not growing back...I'm so sorry I should have seen this video earlier.. what can I do to help it grow back...It's been months since i cut it now i feel bad for my parrot
Yeah, they should - do you know anything about the purpose of clipping of you are just being ignorant asking things like this cause you were too lazy to do a bit of research?
Asalamualikum.. I need your help many apny parrot k par cut krdiya thy wrong mtlb bohot close orab3/month sy zada time hogua mara parrot 8 month ka hogya ab ma asa kiya krun k wo new par nikaly old paron ko nikalun ya kiya krun kitny time ma new nikaly ga
I just think that if it comes to cutting a birds wings so it can be kept as pet, it probably shouldn’t be kept as a pet I understand that it’s so it can’t escape and it can’t hurt itself but if it needs to have its wings cut for this I just think birds shouldn’t be kept as pets. No different to declawing a cat in my opinion.
Lola Rose so they don’t kill themselves by flying into a window , a mirror or a ceiling fan. If you have a domesticated bird that you keep inside the house then that’s the best way to protect them since they already live indoor. If you have them in an aviary this is not necessary .
@@giots9559 it can fly a short distance as in,glide. It can glide,the problem with not cutting birds wings is they can fly into ceiling and damage their skull,I had a very skilled pet owner as a friend and she was a bird expert,she didn't clip it's wings though so it flew into the ceiling and fractured it's skull resulting in death a day later.it is important to keep your bird safe,even if it means cutting their wings..
So the same again... It's cruel do make your pet disable ... don't mutilate it... It's like cutting a bit of my kid's legs, cause it's dangerous for it to go out to the street...
Gio turn you are a complete idiot. How can you even compare those things. Clipping their wings hurts them as much as it hurts you to get a haircut - not like amputating your legs. They can still fly , just not upwards. Once you decide to keep a bird inside of your house it is for their security cause I can assure you the bird would smash their head by flying into the window, a mirror or a fan sooner than later. Since you already like that comparison - Do you have your kids running across the highway? No, you keep them away from it - so they don’t just run around deadly cars even if that’s just kids nature, they run around. Even if you had to hold their hand to keep them from running into a car and even if that disables their running ability. The fact that they have legs doesn’t mean they should use them to get in trouble ;)
NO ONE should ever clip their birds wings themselves. Have it done professionally, it's not expensive. I know of someone who killed his bird doing this. REPLY
900Hilton Its so easy to do it yourself. Just cut a little a time and see if your bird can still fly(you are not supposed to make unable to fly, just cut until it can just glide). That way you cant hurt it. And NEVER cut the tiny feathers as they are blood feathers(feathers thats still growing). If you cut a blood feather or you cut and your bird is pain go to the vet IMMIDIENTLY! Otherwise its completely fine clipping on your own, but if you are still unsure you can just search on TH-cam for tutorials. :) I hope this comment was informative for you and anyone else.
What, NO! You dont cut right up to the tiny feathers on top. When i say cut a little at a time i mean cut 1 feather. You should first do 3-4 and check if your bird is still flying to good. Then if it does cut anothet feather. This video shows the correct cutting lengt from the top: th-cam.com/video/O5mP6wrRXLI/w-d-xo.html
And that's why I don't have any pet 🐦 or 🐈 or 🐕 or 🐍 or 🐢 or 🐇or 🐠 or 🐵 or 🐿️ or 🐜 or 🕷️ or 🐎 or 🐐 or 🐄🐂 or 🐊 or 🦊 or 🐨 etc......................... Kinda scary to abuse them feel like violation of animals no matter what you want to make yourself believe, if you love them it's not good idea to keep them trap. If you have a piece of land with proper amenities and they aren't trapped then maybe it's good.... I kinda feel you will understand what I meant to say no disrespect.... At end it's your choice. Peace 🕊️ God knows best
This is disgusting! A bird needs to fly, you can not just take this from it just because for you it seems to be easier!! And you should certainly not clip the wings yourself! How stupid and cruel can you be!
No, you have do some research. I know that it doesn't hurt the bird and that the feathers regrow. That ist not the point at all. A bird's whole body is designed to fly. It's lungs and airbags are provided with fresh air through the action of flying. If you take away a bird's ability to fly there is a reduced exchange of fresh air which can course aspergillosis, a disease that can shorten a birds life immensly. In Germany trimming a bird's wing is forbidden because it's in violotation of the animal protection law. Besides this aspect of health I just don't get why you get an animal as a pet, that is born to fly, although you are not able to offer the space that your bird needs to fly extensively and safely. If you can't guarantee this, then simply just get another pet, not a bird which defines itself through it's ability to fly.
This is a quiete selfish chain of thought, don't you think? To get a pet just because you think you might enjoy it? "It's as if they are still in the wild" - oh yeah of course, a bird its characteristical ability to fly was taken away and that live without any perches etc in a living room is extremely close to the wilderness. And btw, a bird should not bond with its owner in the first place. It needs a partner of the same species!! Anything else is cruel. It seems like Germany is a lot further as far as that goes. My comment is not meant to be a hate comment. I am shocked to randomly realize that bird care is that backward in other countries. I have eight parrots myself, btw. And they truely enjoy flying!
owl tyto, if you have an experieced flyer you can say that it IS upsetting for them to fly, but, if you have birds that absolutely SUCK at flying, they coul fly and break their straw necks. thats why a bird needs trimming
I like to keep my birds fully winged when possible, but they get hurt flying into windows and get into places in the house that aren't safe. About half the year they are only minimally clipped, so they can still fly but not as fast or as high. That also keeps them from hanging out on top of my cabinets.

@Baconmuncher some bird feathers have to be clipped for their own safety.
Stop being a ignorant and learn and thing or 2 before throwing names around
@Baconmuncher fuck off, when falling you can still dampen the hit with arms and hands.
@Baconmuncher
I don't think you know what abuse is.
I got my Indian ring neck from a breeder and they butchered his wing feathers!!! I didn’t realise that when I was at their house but when I arrival home I then saw his wings. They also only cut one wing so he was unbalanced. They cut his wings when he was only four months old!!!! He Tried to fly off his cage but fell and broke his leg :( he is fine now and very healthy and happy. his leg is completely fine.
That’s awful! Oh no poor baby 😧
I partially clipped my bird so I only clipped 4. But good job and thanks for giving other people the right way to do it.
Ye wings kitne months bad vaps aaynge
I can't cut my Parrot's wing cause it's acting aggressive to me when I take out the scissors
You have to have 2 people one hold the parrot and the wing sturdy.
if he bites you you should hold the neck like ✌️ but not too tight! so he won’t be able to bite
Sir, I think I hv trimmed incorrectly my Alexandria's wings. Its been 2 months n he has stopped being active since then. Will his wings grow back ?
Subhalakshmi Jena yes
@@abdelazimmansour2615 he's 3 months old, why can't he eat by himself?
Subhalakshmi Jena he needs to learn how to eat he won’t start eating by himself.

My parrot can't fly before 2 years of me trimming the wings , I think I did something wrong is there any solution.
Stop clipping them. If they fly again, clip shorter next time.
@@pokemonindigo2817 sorry my bad I meant before not after 😅
@@_Cfocus It ok
Thank you for a great video with proper trimming.
Can I ask if you've heard of plucking the first small feather out instead of trimming the the 7 feathers shown in your vidio
Think you clipped more than needed i only do the first 4 on my African grey and its fine been doing it for the last 21 years
African grey parrots are heavier, so clipping a couple feathers will be enough for them, but not for smaller birds.
Thank you so much for an amazing informative video. Where can I find Clipping scissors like that? also how long does it take for flight wings to come back in from trimming time?
I think i cut my parrot wings wrong and now it's not growing back...I'm so sorry I should have seen this video earlier.. what can I do to help it grow back...It's been months since i cut it now i feel bad for my parrot
in how many days they will grow again ? i need u help i have also done the same and it's not growing properly what to do 3 months had passed help me
Nikhil Saw it took 6-8 months for my lovebirds to be alble to fly again
bopo900 thank u
its a bit late but smaller parrots (like conures) grow their feathers back in 10-12 months
Dont cut new feathers. They have blood in them and can cause injury if trimmed. Always trim large full grown feathers.
Nikhil Saw 2-3 months if its a budgie
Some birds can still fly with this trim
Beverly Morlan well yeah but let's say they fly out the window they won't make it very far
super Toy fan that's the point of clipping them
Momma Ana I know that's what I'm trying to tell this person
Yeah, they should - do you know anything about the purpose of clipping of you are just being ignorant asking things like this cause you were too lazy to do a bit of research?
My Amazons can still fly with a cut like that! I have to cut up almost even to the covert row of feathers.
Is it give pain to parrot.
Pooja Charak nope
No
How much centimeters I need to cut
Asalamualikum..

great job
Dont do this to birds! Buy a harness teach your bird to free fly !!! Don’t be lazy and ignorant!!! This is mutilation!!!
I just think that if it comes to cutting a birds wings so it can be kept as pet, it probably shouldn’t be kept as a pet I understand that it’s so it can’t escape and it can’t hurt itself but if it needs to have its wings cut for this I just think birds shouldn’t be kept as pets.

NON SI TAGLIANO LE PENNE DELLE ALI AI PAPPAGALLI!!!!!!!!!!!!! chi è con me??
Very profession!
how to clip wings of shy parrot
the same as with a parrot that's not shy
Professionally. Don't do it yourself.
Edied why cut his wing?
There is no correct way, wing clipping is abuse and should never be done. Do some research before owning a parrot.
Do what is best for your bird. But they have wings. I let mine fly because they are fucking birds. So. Yeah.
This is a good way, but the problem is,your birds still can fly if you cut it that way
It's what we want and parrots ARE MEANT TO FLY
You still want your parrot to fly, just not for great distances which they are capable of.
Why take away the ability of what a birds whole purpose is
Lola Rose so they don’t kill themselves by flying into a window , a mirror or a ceiling fan. If you have a domesticated bird that you keep inside the house then that’s the best way to protect them since they already live indoor. If you have them in an aviary this is not necessary .
They have feet and can suffer like the rest of us.
Seriously if a captive bird escapes it will starve and die very painfully.
It's cruel... Don't buy birds...Buy a pet that can not fly from the beginning... so cruel
Maybe research before being a bitch. It can still fly you idiot.
So, why are you doing this then?
@@giots9559 it can fly a short distance as in,glide.

When you cut the birds wing it doesnt even reach the blood quil area if you do it right lol..
Maybe you can do this properly, but 95 percent of people can't and the results can be devastating. So don't encourage people to make this mistake.
By this video i think many people may have disabled the birds to fly in their lifetime
The feathers grow back in about six months what do you mean "for life"
The wings grow back in a few months when trimmed correctly, as in this video.
And that's why I don't have any pet 🐦 or 🐈 or 🐕 or 🐍 or 🐢 or 🐇or 🐠 or 🐵 or 🐿️ or 🐜 or 🕷️ or 🐎 or 🐐 or 🐄🐂 or 🐊 or 🦊 or 🐨 etc.........................

YOU ARE SO RIGHT
Donot do..he is crying..he is not ur property...he has his own lyf and he wants to fly..not to walk on the flour..
Sunita Gupta he can be a bad flyer, so beingvin the floor maybe better than a broken neck from crashing againts a wall
Good
Yes U r right😙...he can be....
Sunita Gupta birds with clipped wings don’t just walk on the floor, they can still fly just not upwards
He can glide, and he won't crash

please don't cut the wings of parrot it is hurting them
xD its the same as clipping your nails you don't feel it if you do it correctly
It's exactly like getting a haircut
no it doesn’t, it’s the equivalent to getting a hair cut
Clipping a birds wings doesn’t hurt them in any way if you do it right.
Does it hurts to yoi when you cut your hair?
very very bad 😔😔👹👹👹
Why?
The correct way to trim a parrot's wing is not at all.
So you want all birds to die? When they flying?
Zingothepitbullwolf !
They don’t die if they fly. My flies all over the house.
Aida Anderson You should clip their wings.. its helps them so much
