I trim everyone's nails here except Salsa's. Salsa snips his own nails on a regular basis and actually keeps them blunt enough and quite reasonable in length. He has much the same response as Renee's Jody if I try and get the nail clippers near him. Maybe it's a GW thing. One interesting thing about Salsa and nail clippers, though, is that each time he sees them he begins snipping his own nails with his beak. I've always been amazed by this. It's like he's thinking: "get those damn things away from me! I'll do it myself!!" With my other three, I just put each of them on a perch stand and snip off the pointy tips. I typically don't file them. They're a bit scratchy that way... but I can take it
