>>50595435Without knowing more about where they live I can't comment, but there are ways to handle that without having to resort to feather clipping. Drapes, shades, blinds and whatnot can be put over the windows so the birbs don't get confused with the panes of glass and hurt themselves flying into it. If you're going to clip a birb's feathers you have to be ready to handle them being underfoot all the time because even tho they can still hop, climb, and 'fly-jump' up to places they won't be able to sustain flight for very long. So, like you said, they'll need plenty of roosts and other things to get to easily. I am generally NOT a fan of feather clipping when other solutions exist. The only reason to cilp wing feathers is if you're going to have them outdoors a lot and they aren't trained / trusting enough to return to you and might fly off. Otherwise, birbs need their flight feathers in case they fall off shit (birbs are dumb sometimes) and it can cause them stress. It doesn't physically hurt to have their flight feathers clipped and they'll molt those feathers and grow new ones, so it isn't permanent either, but if it can be avoided it should. Like I said, if they're concerned about the windows, there are other solutions. They're young, by the sounds of it, and should be learning to fly. Interrupting that isn't what I would support.
