I am having a hard time with Mardi.
He can't fly because of an awful wing clip and Mardi was clipped at the same time but being younger she moulted and now can fly and Keiko feels left out because Mardi can fly to the top of the bookcase and Keiko can't and keeps falling to the ground...I feel bad for him.
I have layed wooden poles down so he can climb up to her but when she decides to go back in the cage Mardi flys in and then Keiko forgets and trys to fly to and goes thud.Should I get Mardi's wing clipped again?
Or leave it and wait till keikos flight wings grow back in?:confused:

If you want both birds to be flighted, then I wouldn't clip Mardi's wings again.

However, I prefer to keep my Cherry managable as I have 16 foot ceilings with plant ledges and IF I gave Chers full flight, I would never see her again! ;/

Keiko's wings will grow in soon enough. Perhaps if you give Keiko some extra attention, it will counteract for the fact that Mardi's taunting her by flying!
