Can you clip your parakeets wings at 5 weeks old?
Parakeets should not have their wings clipped before they are 12 weeks old. Clipping their wings too early can damage their flight feathers and prevent them from developing proper wing strength and balance. Additionally, clipping their wings too early can make them more susceptible to injury, as they will not be able to fly away from danger. For these reasons, it is important to wait until your parakeet is at least 12 weeks old before clipping its wings.
