i would keep them and breed out of them so you dont lose them or if you really want to fly them you can tape there wings and train them to your house until the tape comes off

Tripp,
You wrap tape arount the primary feathers of one wing. Keeps the bird from flying too far and/or too high. In fact if done correctly they may be able to fly from the ground to the top of a kitbox or loft if they work real hard.
There are some dangers if you have them outside during the hawk season........they simply can't flee and evade.

i would breed out of them but when i tape the birds wings or cut the feathers i stay out with them so nothing will get them or i put my cat near the bird and my cat wont touch the birds but she will kick any cat that comes near the birds
