My parrotlet gets tired after a few flying

[Fportilla77]

So I launch my bird into flight and it does one lap around the room and then it gets tired and doesnt want to fly any more. The bird is missing like 3 primary flights in total. This parrot was originally clipped when I got it. How can I help it fly more without tiring itself out?

I want to be able to free fly it which involves alot of flying but how can I do it with this parrot if it gets tired?

All athletes have to practice.

What Liz said. Need to build up those flight muscles....

How would I help my parrot build flight muscles?

Just time and space to exercise n fly.
Don't carry the bird everywhere, encourage it to fly to you (or wherever it wants to go).

Review Michael's blog on flight training. Get a couple of flight/training perches. Target from one perch to the other...gradually increase distance between the perches. Best bet is to read/watch the flight training info.
