Why did you clipped karma wings??? =/

[Peedge80]

I clipped them because I feared she would fly out the house - since that is how I expect she was found outside.

It helped that she had to trust me because her escape route was minimized.

After a year she has her wings back. I have considered clipping them, but I can see that she is much happier fully flighted. She flys around the house and lands where ever I am.

I don't regret clipping her wings, but I have a hard time doing so again.

How old was Karma when you rescued her?

[Peedge80]

Unfortunately, since she was rescued from outside, there is no way of telling how old she is. So I don't know.

why did you rescue her from the outside was she liek hurt or something?? Or was she just abandoned there i have a sun conure and i kno that conures are very loving. I am thinking of getting a blue crowned in march or sep. would you recomend?

[Peedge80]

She was just outside abandoned or escaped. If you have sun conure, you should have no problem with the blue crown. Karma is a one person bird that tolerates and gives marginal affection to my boyfriend. Otherwise, she is on my shoulder whether I want her to be or not. She cuddles, whispers in my ear, preens me. I would highly recommend the blue crowns.

I would go for a rescue. She was alot of work at first, but she has done a complete turn around. She is stubborn and sassy, but what conure isn't? Let me know when you post a video of your new addition. Good Luck.

Yes they are happier when fully flighted... that's why I asked.... and... what a better answer? I def understand ;-) Thanks Pee.

Cute birds you have there!

I would like to have a blue crown too, but those conures can scream ugly, my conure never screams, but my indian ringneck screams all day long:( and my lovebirds do the same, now my african grey imitates them some times
