There will always be pros and cons concerning allowing companion birds to remain fully flighted or to have their wings clipped. There are benefits and valid reasons for both choices depending on the home dynamics as well as the specific bird(s).

For the education of all bird owners who are facing this personal decision we have set up five sections covering links and info as well as personal testimonials and also past threads on the subject.

The first two sections contain access to links and information (Health Benefits of Flight) and (The Benefits of Clipping Plus How to Clip Properly). These two sections will not be open for discussion since this is not the purpose. There are already, and will continue to be, plenty of threads for that purpose. These two sections are for easy access pursposes only. If you have come across informative links that you do not see here regarding 'allowing flight' and/or the 'necessity of clipping' please submit them by PM to any of the Mods/SuperMods/Admins and we will add them upon approval.

The next two sections (Members' Personal Stories Promoting Flight) and (Members' Personal Stories Promoting Clipping) are for you to add your PERSONAL testimonial regarding your POSITIVE experience having your birds flighted or clipped. No negative, long winded views against the opposite choice will be allowed and will be edited out without notice to the OP. Please submit your personal testimonials by PM to any Mod/SuperMod/Admin and we will add them upon approval.

The last section (Previous AA Threads Discussing Flighted vs. Clipping) is a link to various Avian Avenue threads on this subject. If you find any that we have missed please submit them by PM to any of the Mods/SuperMods/Admins and we will add them upon approval.

We hope our members will find this thread with it's five sections educational and helpful. :)
