I am scared this topic will get out of hand like when we discuss flighted versus clipped.
About 3 weeks ago, I took coral to the Vet to get her nails clipped. What i've been noticing the pass few weeks is that no matter how much time i give her to get use to having unsharpen nails, she will never be the same as when she had sharp nails. The biggest difference is that when they were sharp, she would be most incline to hang upside down on her perch, or climb up and down her play rope. Now she just sits there...
I know most of us take our fids to get nails clipped because they are simply too long and can cause injuries to them. But where do we draw the line? When their nails are sharp, it's hard to hold them properly, but when they are cut, they're no longer the same.
