Emily pointed out that the only time the beak will overgrow on a bird is due to dietary issues or lack of toys in the cage, however Cheyenne has scissor beak because her original breeder only fed her from one side.

Question

Reiterating the prompt in my own words: the statement asserts that a bird’s beak will only overgrow due to dietary issues or a lack of in-cage toys, and it claims Cheyenne’s scissor beak arose because the original breeder fed her from only one side.
First, consider the claim about causes of beak overgrowth. In avian care, beak overgrowth is known to have multiple contributing factors. Diet quality and variety can influence beak wear and growth, but genetic predisposition, injury, illness, parasites, and jaw alignment problems can all lead to abnormal beak development. Limiting causes to only dietary issues or lack of enrichment is an oversimplification that ignores these other influences.
Next, examine the connection to Cheyenne’s scissor beak. Scissor beak is a deformity where the upper and lower beaks do not align properly, causing cross-sectional bending. While improper feeding habits or unilateral pressure (such as feeding from one side) may contribute to abnormal wear or asymmetric growth in some cases, it is not a universally sole cause of scissor beak. Many scissor beak cases are congenital (genetic), due to injury, or arise from developmental factors independent of feeding side.
Exploring the second clause about “original breeder only fed her from one side” as the sole cause is thus questionable. Even if unilateral feeding could influence wear, it is unlikely to be the exclusive cause of a structural beak deformity like scissor beak without other contributing factors. It would require evidence that the beak deformity originated specifically from that feeding pattern, and veterinary literature typically recognizes multiple etiologies.
In summary, the statement is too narrow: beak overgrowth has a spectrum of causes beyond diet and enrichment, and scissor beak can arise from genetic or developmental factors in addition to, or independent of, unilateral feeding. Therefore, the claim that these are the only causes and that Cheyenne’s condition resulted solely from one-sided feeding lacks support.
