So, unless "coincidence" is repetitive (its not), or I'm losing it (I'm not, since I never had it). I have uncovered something that fellow sunnie parronts must be made aware of.
Sunnies CAN understand the English language (not just word association, but actual meanings). You see, Skittles upper mandible was longer than it should be and he's not due for his annual til August, so I was going to schedule it sooner so his beak could be trimmed. I kid you not, when I went to call the vet for an estimate (they change prices every year) the next day, his upper mandible was back to regular size.
My point is this, he clearly decided to file his beak down so as to avoid an early trip. He does have access to things meant specifically for that purpose.
I wonder if I tell him I'm going to play the lottery so I can buy him all sorts of goodies, if he'll pick the winning numbers for me?
