Simple Procedure

Apparently clipping bird wings is rather complicated.
*shakes head*
lol.

Let me explain.

So I had a customer today who wanted to buy a bird and get the wings clipped.
Which we do as a free service when they're buying the bird. But we don't do it again after that point.
And I explained that to the customer.
Who was like "So how do we clip the wings then? If we can't bring them back to you, do they need to be clipped again?"

Well...yes they do need to be clipped again as the feathers are just like finger nails. They grow back.
But most people can do it themselves. Unless they aren't confident in it, then the customers can take them to a vet.

However, I explained the process to the customer....who kinda gave off the impression that this was 'too hard' for them to do.

It wasn't.
And to show them so.
I caught the bird they wanted.
Made sure it was secure so that it wouldn't get loose in the store.
And then showed the customer what I was talking about two minutes earlier and the process of how to do it.

To which they commented. "You make it seem so easy!"

Because it is easy.
Pull out the wing. Clip the feathers. Don't clip too high and you're good. *shakes head*

It's interesting how people make things out to be more difficult than they actually are. :) lol
