How does every one clip their AG's claws?

I don't. I put a large pollys pastels perch at the highest point for them
to roost on and this keeps the nails trimmed.

Bey has one toe that doesn't grasp the perches properly due to an old injury
to that leg, and when it needs clipping I just use a regular nail clipper.
The rest of the birds' nails don't need trimming as they're kept from
overgrowing through regular use; some of the birds have sandy perches in
their cages, also. When I used to keep them short (too short, I've since
learned - they need length and point for proper clutching when they land,
among other times), I dremmeled them.
