Some owners of wavy parrots , after discovering on their beak some stratification, panic over the question whether it is an illness or what to do if the beak of a wavy parrot is thin.
Reasons why the parrot has a beak
First of all, wavy parrots, these very delicate and fragile creatures, require careful care and constant control over their well-being.
Therefore, every owner of these feathered handsome should have at least a minimum of knowledge about the physiology and features of the content of these birds. So, having discovered the stratification of the beak in a parrot, first of all, do not panic. After all, if it's a young bird (no older than six months), then the parrot's beak can be stratified for natural reasons - it simply grows and should be sewn. To help the feathered pet, place a few branches from a fruit tree 1-1.5 cm thick in a cage containing a bird. But before this, it is always good to wash and disinfect the branches by scalding. Parrot, gnawing on branches, can naturally stitch a beak.
Diseases of the beak of wavy parrots
The situation is different with an adult bird, especially if incomprehensible growths are added to the stratification and the color of the beak of the beak changes. Do not immediately seek the cause of improper care for the pet. The tick is the most likely explanation, and the source of infection can be anything, even a grain mixture for feeding. Sometimes the stratification of the beak is a concomitant phenomenon in kemidocaptoze (scabies). And another reason may lie in the lack of nutrients.
