Young Budgie With Crusty Cere

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi I'm Toby I'm 11 and I am a new member.

 

I have a Budgie that is, from my research, a young Budgie. A couple of days after we got her, a sort of crustiness has appeared on her cere, and I just wanted to know what it was :)

 

I feed her seed, millet sprays, fruit and veggies.

 

P.S. I have got her in a cage with a male budgie who I don't know the age of with a nesting box. Please tell me if you want some pictures.

Hi,

 

If your female budgie is under 1 year of age you should remove the box from the cage. A picture would help, she might be leaving condition or she may have scaley face

Okay, thanks.

I think she is quite young, because she had black bars all down her forehead when we got her, and I think that means she is still a baby?

I'll take the box off, or just block up the door, because it is quite firmly attached onto the cage.

I'll try to get a good picture, but she is very scared of my tablet.

Hi again...

 

I looked up photos of scaley face, and that's definitely not it, I can't upload a picture for some reason, so I think she's just leaving breeding condition.

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Toby
