I have a bit of both. If you do not clip their wings, which they still reliable and are dependent. And it can not hurt, on the run. Most domestic flightless birds, they need to learn - is not an instinct. So if you take the flight to end, most of them to hurt. So my friend kills birds - flying into a wall and broke his neck.

Instead, I am also disadvantages. Also for the welfare of the birds. If, for example, I went to clip the wings of birds and put them in a high plase what ought to be, nor fly. This is stolen and falls to the ground, may be injured sternum, its keel.

** I am not affected by the developments, such as when trimming the wings, does not alter the genetics of birds, only the physical .**

So for my domestic birds, I clip in the last 2 or 3 basic colors. This allows the springs, so that he was still flying, but not for ever hurt or steal.

I hope to helped,

For.

Wing clipping is not like declawing cats - no surgery and is not permanent.

MIC right wing does not impede flight. A bird cut should be able to fly a short distance and land safely.

After releasing a bird in bulk can be a fatal mistake. Toilets or other open water, heat, appliances, ceiling fans, windows, electrical wiring, fabrics, animals, poisonous plants, household chemicals, or stuck behind the furniture. All these things are known to kill birds. Many native birds is lost through open doors or windows.

All this can be avoided by adjusting the wing feathers.

While many people cut their own birds, we must be careful because it can also be dangerous to do the birds when they are wrong.

Clipping involves cutting (like hair) an inch or two of the first $ 5 or less feathers on both wings. They will be replaced by new feathers in the next moult. The only precaution is that you should never cut a pen in the blood. If the new useIt comes as a pin, needle, with the blood supply in use - faster than a fingernail. It would be a feather in the blood until it is fully developed and mature. Blood, feathers are dark pen, and a layer of wax.

I do not understand the reference to evolution. Cut will not develop the feathers from animals not flighted. No more having his haircut to shrink your head.

You cut the feathers for the same reason was that dogs on a leash - for the protection of animals.

Because if it is a pet, but if it does not.

I mean parakeets, etc. aka pets, I take the wings clipped so they do not hurt if we let the outside in, and who possesses them. We let one wing of my male parakeet often arise because we have to flee roaming outside their cage, and began, but the head of the memory on windows and doors. We have no place in the home where he could not keep the windows and doors present an obvious problem when they flew choose to keep the wings flapping trimmed enough for them, and walk about three feet but not quite.
But I also have parrots who do not support, which often do not cut their wings because it is not necessary, and also in larger cages in this way.
That is why I say if you have a pet that runs continuously, and I know that this bird trying to fly, so if you are outside, and the victim may or on the wing, clipping the wings could be a good thing be. However, if you aviaries, cages are bigger, "only to see, Or if pets to fly, but not much or struggle against evil, and you can be sure of anything, then it is not necessary to clip the wings of the bird domesticated.
