Beaks are made of a similar material to horse's hooves, and like hooves, they grow continuously. Your bird needs safe toys to chew on to keep the beak sharp and in good condition. A vet can trim it if it becomes overgrown.

Parrot beaks consist of two jaws and a nostril. Healthy bird will use its beak for eating playing and chewing. You should make sure it is smooth, symmetrical and isn't peeling. There should also be no discolored areas on your parrots beak. Sometimes a beak will overgrow so it is important to check your parrot from time to time.
