So today I took my cockatiel out and I noticed he has some weird little Alfalfa action going on with his crest. :grey: Also I noticed on the first day I took him out ( about a week ago) his crest feathers are dotted with the same stuff on his " Alfalfa hair" Is it just a new feather growing? He still charges at my hand, open beaked, most of the time when i get near him so I cant touch it or anything.

No worries. Those are feather shafts that are sticking out funny. He'll sport his brand new crest in no time flat. :)
