Wings or Nails Clipping

Grooming your bird includes trimming its wings and nails, filing its beak, preening your bird and bathing your bird. Wing, nail and beak trimming are simple procedures. If you are inexperienced with how to perform them, then have your avian veterinarian show you the proper instruments needed and the correct method of trimming. Once you have done it a few times it becomes easier. I recommend, however, that owners let others do the grooming so their bird does not become distrustful to the owner.
