Budgies/love bird's beak

Question
My love bird's beak seems to be growing,  It curves under and is about to run into his neck.  Is this normal, if not what can I do about  it?

Answer
Hi Julie. I am a Budgie expert, and do not have any expertice in love birds. I would take you love bird to an avian vet to have them take a look at it and determine if the love bird needs a beak trim. Beak trims are not very expensive, so dont worry about price.

Hope I helped!

I can answer questions on breeding, illness, housing, diet, color mutations, genetics, and many others. I find budgies to be one of the most wonderful bird species to own as a pet. If I do not know the answer to you question, which is indeed a rare event, I will do my best to research and find the best answer to your question. I have dedicated my life to budgies and now I'm prepared to give back and help the community with their budgies as well. These birds are so wonderful there is an endless amount of information to know about them. I learn new things from budgies every day that I spend with them. If you have a question, please do not hesitate to ask. You will not be disappointed with the feedback.
