I use ordinary old nail clippers that I use on myself when the need arises. Which is not often as I use natural perching which I cut from my own mulberry and cape lilac trees, and change regularly. Those that need trimming are the canaries, followed by the various nuns and munias. Practice and a steady hand mean that accidental cutting of the vein is extremely rare, and fortunately even though the blood loss looks horendous in relation to so small a bird it does not cause a problem.
