Grooming

Helpful Hint: Do
I need to get the bird groomed?
Yes. The nails should be filed, or trimmed
regularly. If you have a pedicure perch in the cage, it
helps them to stay blunted. As far as the wings are
concerned it varies. Canaries and finches for instance
rarely ever get their wings trimmed. Sometimes breeding
birds are purposely not trimmed, but most of the time “pet”
birds are trimmed. This helps prevent accidents in the home,
or the bird from taking flight outdoors and possibly getting
away. We have heard thousands of stories from pet owners who
were convinced that their 10 year old pet would never have flown
away but actually did, never to return. Some birds cannot
survive this because of several reasons, lack of exercise, and
they have never been in the wild before and do not always have the
necessary survival instincts.
