Beak trim appt (599 views)

I made zorro with bird groomer 4 16th. The person does home visits, so there coming here. Zorro has a corner thst grows up on lower left (left if he is facing me). N im not sure if other side (right if facing me) upper beak is a bit long. Looks longer then left side. Nothing severe. But this girl on fb told me if i get it groomed once i always will. Id this true?

I'm not sure to be honest. I never had to deal with any beak problems. I don't think beaks will grow just because you trimmed it. I'm not sure why it's growing uneven in the first place. He has a good diet, so that shouldn't be a problem. Maybe the groomer will be able to see what's wrong and give advice. Does he have a cuttle bone in the cage?

[Caiquelover]

Yes but ignores it n wood toys too.

[Haimovfids]

Does he use the wood toys or does he ignore it too?

[Caiquelover]

He was hang from them does that count

Well, it doesn't have any benefits to keeping his beak trimmed. Sometimes birds will eat cuttle bone if they are out of the cage with you. I like to have a bowl of pellets with some cuttle bone out for Rio when he is out of his cage. He eats the cuttle bone that way.

Like u chop it up?

You can break off some pieces and put them in the bowl. No need to chop it. Bird like things messy.

I just got a whole piece n cage n on gym.
