Question
why should i trimm my bird nails?

what are the consequencese of not trimming the birds nail?

Answer
Hello Harvel,
I dont trim my budgies nails. I just dont see the need to trim them unless they get VERY long. With they usually dont. Maybe just add one sand paper pirch and keep lots of others in the cage. Just make sure they dont have to stand on a sand paper one all the time.

Hope I Helped Good Luck!
