Appropriate time to re-clip a bird's wings?
It's been 6 month I got my little Bud, and I got his wings clipped that day. He has started growing his flight feathers back and I'm not sure when the appropriate time to get them re-clipped is. He is still in the middle of growing them back, but he has about three fight feathers right out the outside of his clipped wing- giving him some really good height and distance when he wants it.
My concerns are 1) in waiting for the rest of his feathers to grow to a full set to then clip, he might get himself into trouble (or just BE trouble for me), but 2) clipping them before he has completed a whole set is going to be bad for him in some way, or will require him to clipped twice- now, and then when the rest come in- which I assume is just a stressful experience.
Any input is appreciate.
