Default Caring for a Starling Bird?

Does anybody know how to clip a starling birds beak? Their beaks are very long and come to a point and if you dont keep it clipped they could have problems with eating and infection.THIS WEBSITE I FOUND RECOMMENDS DOING THAT...AND ALSO HIS DOES NEED TRIMMED AS THE UPPER PORTION OF HIS BEAK IS WAY LONGER THAN THE LOWER IT SHOULD BE EVENWILD STARRLINGS SCRAPE THEIR BEAKS ON ROCKS AND PAVEMENT TO KEEP THEIR BEAK IN TRIMMED

Well, I'm not really sure, I would take it to the vet and have them do it. =-]

You should not have to trim a starlings beak at all! Their beaks are supposed to grow to a point. Who told you they had to be clipped? StudlyCertified Avian Specialistwww.borrowed-rainbow.com
