At what age OOP should I start trimming my joey's nails. Right now they are 3 weeks and starting to feel a bit sharp but I'm sure they need a good grip right now while they learn to move around. Just wondering what the normal age is that people start clipping.

Current Research, Studies & Resources

I usually don't start clipping their nails until they are weaned from Mom and Dad.

They need their nails to hold onto Mom and Dad for rides.

That's what I thought. I didn't want to clip them while they are still newbies and getting around. Thanks smile
