What is the best way to exercise a clipped parrot?

cheekyqt456: What is the best way to exercise a clipped parrot?
I used to let my quaker parrot fly around the house a bit. He flew out one doorway to the living room and back in the other one. And I always let him fly to my chair. But I got him clipped and now I do not know how to exercise him.

Playing with him everyday helps. All of our birds are and always have been clipped, some have never found out how it feels to fly. I have one game I play with my parrots where I hold them up high and walk fast with them, this makes them start to flap their wings. They love that game give that a try with your bird. Now that you have it clipped take him outside for a walk he will love the sunshine and fresh air.

I usually, with my tiels, hold them on an index finger and slowly wave my finger up and down. She stretches her wings, and even mimicks flying.

Let him walk of the floor. Make sure he has a lot of bird toys and a play pen on the top of his cage so that he can climb up and around it, that will give him plenty of exercise.
You did the right thing clipping his wings, it will keep him from getting hurt or inadvertently flying out the door.

You should buy a harness and take him outside they walk pretty good on a lead and you look mint as walking a parrot whilst all them average people walk their dogs!
