Hi Everybody. I just noticed that Peach's beak looks a bit long. She'll be going to her vet in the springtime to get her nails clipped. It does look long though. Not sure if I should wait. Any input on avg. beak length would be helpful. How do you tell??

Be interesting to read the feed back
on your question as I don't know.. sorry

Can you post a picture? That will help us know whether it looks normal or not. The beak grows continuously just like toenails so it's going to vary a little, but the bird usually keeps it worn down. But when the beak does get too long it can be a symptom of liver disease, so it's good to get it vet-checked if it's not a normal length.

Yes please post a picture! I suspect that my Mr Darcy has a beak that's a bit too long, seeing yours and the comments to it will definitely help me too.

If you post a picture of Darcy's beak we can give an opinion on him too.

This is Darcy's beak





On the secon pic you can maybe see the proportions better.

Looks the same length as Zippi's
too me.. I don't think its too long is it?
Be very interesting to hear what members think.

Darcy's beak looks fine to me. There's a little bit at the tip where the top side of the beak has flaked off and the underside hasn't done it yet, but this is normal.

Sorry, I have been struggling with an attack of Vertigo and just saw all of the response to my question.
Peach's beak looks exactly like Darcys. I will try to get a pic on here ASAP.

Yikes..seeing it enlarged scares me.
