How do i clip my cockatiels wings it does not come to us?
Don’t clip more than 10 primary feathers from a cockatiel’s wings (see Figure 1). If you want to give your cockatiel some ability to fly, clip fewer feathers or clip the feathers farther down, merely shortening them. Your cockatiel will still need to have wing exercise, especially with clipped feathers. Take some time every day to hold her feet and encourage her to flap. Chances are good she’ll develop some strong chest muscles by using what wing feathers she has to get around. It really isn’t possible to ground a cockatiel. You’ll be surprised how well your clipped cockatiel can get around. Even with ten primary flight feathers clipped from each wing, don’t risk taking your cockatiel outside on your shoulder. She may get scared by a dog, cat, or car and fly into danger. If you want your cockatiel to be outside in the sunshine, take her out in a carrying cage or train her to use a bird harness and leash. Clip a cockatiel’s wing feathers one by one, after you’ve decided how many to clip
