In addition to their questionable metallic composition, I thought this toy bell risk was important to share (source).
Our feathered friend Angel was brought into the clinic as an emergency consultation after getting her beak stuck in her toy bell.
Angel did a good job of getting the clip of the bell stuck as it was firmly wedged onto her lower beak. It was too stressful to remove it while conscious so, Dr Luke recommended light sedation.
Once the sedative had taken effect, Dr Luke used a dental burr to cut the bell off carefully. The removal was approached in two parts. First, he worked his way through the bell, and then started to slowly cut through the bell clip until it fell off the beak without having to remove it physically.
Little Angel recovered nicely and was back eating normally soon after her procedure.
