Beak filing day. She's now to just long normal. So it's going good. A few more times and she'll be perfect. I'll keep an eye on her after that.

Basically it's like shortening a dogs nails when they have been uncut for too long. The quick will shrink back some.

Was that the one you put up a picture of like the one I have if so same story here he is just to big. I have a couple of big light brahma hens and he just grabs them like they are nothing and throughs them to the ground and breeds them, he must go away. To bad to as he is not at all aggressive towards me.
