No the wings are clipped
clipping a bird's wings means cutting the feathers short on one wing. This keeps the bird from flying away because if it tries to fly with one wing clipped short, it can't balance. If the wings are not clipped, then the bird can fly away.

Usually when a bird is in captivity it's wings are clipped, unless the enclosure is closed. (with a roof) But if that bird is specifically trained to fly, then it's wings will not be clipped but it is still in captivity.
If you dont want them to fly away it might help. It does not hurt the bird but would you like your wings clipped.
Its wings are not clipped enough to prevent it from some flight. This is normal behavior for a young bird. More contact and handling is needed to make this bird feel comfortable with you holding it.
not if you get it at a vet. it cost about 30.00 $
