Looks fine. Do you have questions? This is the place to bring them. Edges are often irregular and that is fine. Does she have a mineral lump to help groom her beak? Chewing harder wood also helps.

Mineral block and to Catulbone's in a large cage wood perches made from branches. chews on decorations sticks. she's chewing that up every day. I thought beak should be smooth at this age.

I don't know much about conure beaks, but (s)he sure is cute!

She obviously lost a v-shaped notch from her mandible portion, but they sometimes do that and it just slowly grows out and is gone. Like any small, young parrot, she checks out everything with her beak and sometimes they get hold of a wire or a screw or something and it damages their beak a little. I make sure all the screws and such are tight in my cages every week. Emmie CAG put a groove in his bottom beak a few years back loosening a bolt that attached the walls of his cage together. I ended up putting a sleeve of wrapped rope over the re-tightened bolt until he forgot about it.

thank you for the help I will check it out

It looks like opposite the notch there may be a groove/indent on the top portion too which does suggest she got ahold of something. I believe in time that will grow out too.

Does the beak look normal? No, it looks damaged


That said, a healthy diet, and it should grow out just fine without issues!
