so today i took remington to get his nails trimmed and i was told not to use concrete or sandpaper perches because of the wear on the feet, so what does one do?

We use the safety perches , alot of them,LOL, they are smooth on top and rough on the sides. Seem to help wear down the nails without harming their feet and easy to clean.

I have found a safe cement perch. It is great for their feet, but I don't know the name of it! Luckily in an hour I'm going to the place I bought it from so I'll get the name of it for you. But it has a smooth part for the feet and the sides are rough-ish for the nails. It works great! And it was recommended to me by a breeder who has a store where he sells his parrots.
