Take another 1/2" off of those clipped feathers, I have clipped many a bird and when I first started I would just clip a little off and then check the bird if he gets lift, then I clip him a little more till he gets to a point where he glides down in a still air environment, My Stimpy is getting clipped this weekend and I will try and take some picks but he is really squirmy.........LMB

PS: always check and make sure he doesn't have any blood feathers before you clip him
