Love this! My babies would be trying to grab the tool, especially Mickey. She loves to take it in her beak, must like the vibrations...lol, the upside is beak grooming is easy with her.

Great video!


It's great to see parrots get stress free grooming and medical treatments done!

Hahn's macaw, RIP George, Jenday Conure
Yeah, Hahnzel would be running and hiding. I have to towel him whenever I dremmel his beak. He'd never in a bazillion years lay like that with the dremmel in plain sight.

I did get to watch a video of stress-free beak dremeling! Well, it was the second video I've seen. First one is below.


It would probably be a good thing to teach Charlie how to do this, as it would make trimming his beak easier! Even though I am able to do so without wrapping him up in a towel as he sits in my lap. I usually have to hold his head still and pry his beak open with my left hand and the dremel in my right hand to get the job done.
