my pigeon has a cracked beak tip...


My pigeon sweetie had cracked off the very tip, the curved part of his beak, a couple months ago. I took him to my vet, who is an avian vet, they said it would grow back and it did. They gave him meloxicam, for the pain. he wasnt biting with alot of pressure, and after a few days he was fine, and the tip grew back. Since then he seemed to have a tiny slice near the tip of beak, i noticed it a week ago, he started having trouble picking up seed two days ago, so i started to give him the meloxicam again, well today i heard it crack when i was giving him the meloxicam. the part is still there, but its half on. does anyone know if they can fix the tip? The crack goes up a little further than the tip.
