Yeah I have clipped wings before, I just think that if I am going to be around this lil guy everytime I am at my parents house I do not want to just grab him out of there to clip his wings. It would scare him so much more and then he may be afraid of me forever. So I will let the vet do it, and we will just keep talking to him, and giving him treats until he wants to come out of there. I think that once we get him out of the cage, he will calm pretty quick with us loving on him all the time and all the fun things he will be able to do. And once he is calm then It will be very easy to clip his wings.

You might be right. having to grab him might be bad for your relationship allthough I don't think the actually clipping will be. Not worth taking the chance if he is going to the vet anyway.
Do as I say. Not as I do.

He's gorgeous!!!
I'd definitely get the vet to do the wings. I clipped my Budgies wings, and ruined any progress I had made with taming,...
