Hi All I am trying to make a decision and seeking some of your opinions. Here is the situation......
Rose has completed her first molt and has beautiful wing feathers. She is flying pretty well now and seems to be loving it. My place is very small. My front door opens into a hallway and windows are seldom open but when they are the window screens are secure. Since the molt she has gained some wt. and is eating more. Is this the result of being able to fly?? Not sure but suspect it is. She is not banded or microchipped. Her annual vet exam is not until Dec. and that would be also for grooming. My delima is to clip or not to clip. I have been leaning towards not clipping because she seems to be thriving. My conscious says to clip her. Feedback from members welcome.
