Normal grey cockatiel
hi, i have a 3/4 months old normal grey cockatiel. i noticed that his beak is shedding? i donā€™t know if heā€™s molting early or if itā€™s normal for their beak to ā€œshedā€ itā€™s just very flaky and it doesnā€™t seem to bother him at all. maybe just me. i donā€™t know but if itā€™s something serious please tell me if i should consider a vet.:grey:

Sounds normal to me, beaks can be really dry and flakey sometimes

If I were you, I'd apply a little bit of coconut oil to his beak to give it some moisture
