Went to Petsmart & the tool is $45.00
Going to try the dog clippers.
I liked that the Pedipaw could leave nice round edges.
I need something I can do myself - not sure if i can hold down chicken & cut with dremel.
Thanx for the great info!

Re: Chicken MANICURE
When I trim nails I hold the chicken by both legs near feet upside down which settles them down & also you have both feet right in your face . First couple or all you may want someone else to hold while you trim . The quicker & calmer it's done the better for you & birds .

Re: Chicken MANICURE
NOOOOO Al, I was looking for "any" info on what was available....that's exactly what you provided ~ I appreciate it BIG Time!
( I thought it sounded like a Good product. Maybe they will go back to the old design? )
Ross - I haven't gotten the hang of handling an upside down bird!
A pal from the Dominican showed how he was taught to hold a bird. The one hand goes under the bird & holds the legs.
The same hand is tilted so the bird is "slightly" laying / leaning on it's side. It doesn't fight or try to get free.
It leaves my right hand to do whatever. I must admit "BOTH FEET in the FACE" seems like a GOOD thing.
Will have to try it again ~ thanx everyone (*o*)
