Beak Trim Story
I'll be honest with you. My Mexican Red-Head's beak looked just like that when I took him to the vet. Honestly, I thought there was nothing wrong with him. My vet told me that he recommended me to get my bird's beak filed. There was such a different after the beak was filed. The parrot looked so much healthier... he looked like he was in a magazine. His beak was smooth and shiney. After I brought him home I wanted to see if there were any serious damages through the internet. IŽve discovered that apparently there can be some occasions where the beak can grow too much to a point where it will be disformed. It is also a high risk or causing permanent damage such as chipping or cracking. Think of a birdŽs beak as your nails. You let it grow too much and youŽll have chances of the nail breaking and/or cracking, which can be very painful... now imagine the bird... imagine trying to eat when the bird's in pain. Trust me it's worth it.
