So basically, Lexa has a small brown scab-looking mass above her cere. I noticed it a while ago, but I shrugged it off. It hasn’t gone away, and now I am worried. It doesn’t seem to be bothering her; she is as lively as ever, and she’s never scratching it or rubbing her head against anything. However, I have noticed that she is pooping less often and she is not eating her food. She will eat when I’m training with her, but not when she’s in her cage (I’ve never really had trouble with this before) Her poops are the same, and they look healthy. She is just not pooping as often as she has in the past. (This is probably from her not eating). I am concerned that she possibly has mites? I’d say her beak looks normal, and so does her vent. Her skin is normal as well. Her feathers don’t look great, but she’s molting so she has a lot of pain feathers.
I would consult my Avian vet, but she recently got in a car accident (the weather here is TERRIBLE, all of the roads are very icy! I’m surprised I haven’t got in an accident at this point!) and is unable to go to work for the next few weeks.
Please if you have any idea what’s going on, tell me!
Feel free to ask any questions!
Thank you so much!!
