The mother bite the baby's beek just below its
nostrils, and 1/2 of the tip is not attached anymore,
but is just hanging there. The baby (about one
month old) is still lively and eating the soft food
I am offering, but how long can this go on for? He
will need a beek to survive.

Will the beek grow back, like a nail?
Should I take the tip right off?
