Somehow I know this is a stupid question yet I doubt myself. I am having my 9 wk old IRN's wings clipped tomorrow. Will they grown back and need to be re-clipped? I think the answer is yes but I must ask. Thanks yall.

She has full flight and is going to hurt herself. Besides, now she can just go away from me when she is tired of me. She doesnt need me and knows it. Bad IRN taming 101, huh.

HI,
Tes, your bird's flight fleathers will grow back. This usually occurs when the bird goes through a molt. They will have to be clipped periodically.

as long as you only clip the flight feathers your bird's feathers will grow back. I know someone who clipped their own bird's wings and pinioned them. when that happens your bird will never fly again. only flight feathers should be cut!
