Hi there. I wasn't sure where to post this so pardon if this is in the wrong thread. We have a chicken with parrot beak and it's causing scissor beak. We clipped it per research a few weeks ago (worst experience for me not so much the bird) but it didn't help. Any tried and true ways to fix this? We clipped the top and bottom tonight but again it didn't really do anything. I'll post photos tomorrow. Any suggestions please!!!

Please post some photos.

Scissor or Cross Beak generally cannot be fixed or corrected. The best you can do is manage the beak length and provide the bird with supportive care like offering a deep dish to eat out of - maybe wet feed so they can eat better, a deep dish to drink from, etc.
