Hi lindos

Is your store in the city? We are going to Melbourne for a few days soon.

I would also recommend getting it done by someone who knows what they're doing. Our local pet stores do it for free but I only go to one particular person who I know does a good job or our avian vet. If you do it, there is a chance that they could associate you with the trauma of getting their wigs clipped and it could make it more difficult when relating to your bird later.
