Strolling the yard
Hey guys!
Skit started a curious behavior since we started working from home. Maybe she was doing it when we werent home and we just noticed it now that we are always here.
she is preening and cleaning her nails or claws but she spends a lottttt of time on her nails. Like she can spend 20 min or so just with her nails in her beak. At first I thought she was cleaning it, then I realized maybe they are too long and bugging her. Could it be that she is sharpening them and trimming them herself? I honestly think that they are a bit shorter.
I doubt that she is ill cause she seems in perfect health and shape! But she can do that thing multiple times during the day and for long periods! Do any of you have lovebirds that do that too? She also makes a loud clicking sound when she does that, it sounds a bit like beak grinding but louder.
Is it something to be concerned about or is it normal? My previous lovebirds never did that so I wonder!
