My two year old Green Cheek Conure somehow got the piece from the middle of her bell toy wedged onto the bottom part of her beak. It has a slit on the side where it slides onto the metal ring, and that slit is jammed onto the side of her beak (Like a piercing..) I tried to wiggle it off a little bit but its wedged really bad, and I'm worried I might injure her. Should I leave her to try and get it off, or attempt to remove it myself again, or just contact the vet?

I'm so sorry this happened. Please take her to a vet for removal as soon as possible so they can remove it safely. Please let us know how she's doing and I'm sending wishes for an easy procedure at the vet.

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Sounds like a job for an avian vet before further injury results. Please keep us updated!
