Hi Friends!
I'm running into some nail trimming troubles with my four year old Pineapple Conure, Duck. I have been trimming her nails since I brought her home at three months old. I have never hit her quick, and I try my best to get it done as quickly and efficiently as possible. I wrap her in a facecloth to hold her, and I use small nail clipper and a vet-approved Dremel to clip and file her nails. She doesn't scream or yell while I'm doing her nails, but I can tell she hates it, and she definitely get anxiety when she thinks I'm getting her to do her nails. I see so many videos of birds willingly getting their nails filed. Does anyone have any advice and experience of how to make it a more pleasant experience for her?
Thank you all!
