I just got Kermit about a week ago. He's 12 weeks old and such a sweet baby <3
But I've noticed he seems to itch a lot, particularly around the skin of his eye. I've looked closely at his skin and nearby feathers but don't see any inflamation or anything that would indicate mites (unless they're difficult to see?).
My state is in a record heat wave, but it's muggy and not dry. Kermit takes baths at least 2 x a day to stay cool, so not sure dry skin is his issue here?
I'll be taking him to the avian vet within the next few weeks ANYWAYS for a check-up, but just wanted to know if I should be overly concerned about my feather child? :<
