Guilt trip
I'm feeling a little guilty tonight, my birds have all been fully flighted for a few months ( except one who's wing feathers are growing out ). I love watching them play and fly... My smallest one ( my blue parrotlet Archie) just LOVES to fly, yelling and chirping as he flys from the cages to the ledge over the windows and back to the cages... I can almost hear him yelling WHEEEEE as he flys. Unfortunately he gets extremely sassy and agressive when flighted. Tonight he kept us chasing him so he wouldn't bite the budgies so we decided to clip his wings, he has been clipped before, so knew exactly what I did and he cried... Sounded like a little puppy when he does, I felt so bad.. He gets very sweet and not nippy when clipped so what ya gunna do? It's a parrotlet thing!
