hi everyone.
well i have these 2 budgies for about a year now. and they are both quite healthy to my eye but there are some things that i find are not normal.
the first one (male) has a beak that looks owergrown on one side. i took him to a vet onnce but i was told that triming it wont do any good as it will get back to what it was like in no time, and since the budgie does eat normal he didnt do anything. i tried triming it a little bit once but it didnt help i only scared the budgie i was afreid to trim too much tho i trimed allmos to what looked normal
the second one (female) sometimes gets her "nose" white. her "nose" looks dry and sometimes (i think) some of the top layer of the skin peals off. is this serious?
i give them vitamins from time to time so i dont think there should be a deficiency in that (too bad they dont eat any fruits or vegies whitch is weard to me ...)
they both are quite young about two to three years old perhaps they will grow out of this and is it worth to worry about any of this?
