title: Wing clipping
text: Wing clipping is the process of trimming a bird's primary wing feathers or remiges so that it is not fully flight-capable, until it moults, sheds the cut feathers and grows new ones. This procedure is usually carried out by avian veterinarians, breeders, or the bird's owners, and primarily on pet birds like parrots. Different techniques involve varying number of feathers cut and the amount of feather length left behind. These methods can have potential physical and psychological effects on birds
