this is similar to the decision about wing clipping. i never clipped my parrot, because i have dogs. terriers even. they know the birds are mine, but they have taken chicks before.
unfortunately the risk that you take came home to haunt me, also, as kaya chewed through a screen and flew away.
i probably would have gotten her back, and she would fly to me. (something a flightless bird cannot learn) but she picked a cold and windy day to fly away. i saw her the next day, then lost her.

i have a sweet boy now, but you are right, he crows at me, and watches his girls. he is just sprouting spurs, and i am thinking about his issue a lot.
