: Cere colour/breeding condition:
: The female cere will change colour this is part of the breeding cycle whether the Budgie-Parakeet is in a breeding set up or not.
: Dark brown on the cere is the end of the cycle and it slothes off to a whitish pale blue..it then starts a-new to a pale cookie brown to a dark brown again. Cookie brown is prime breeding condition.

: Scaly Mites:
: This mite lives deep under the birds skin in non feathered areas such as cere/around the beak/feet/legs/vent, you do not see the mite, what you see is the waste product of the mite. it is a crusty pale whitish tan colour.
: Over the counter meds will not get rid of the problem most of these are for feather type mites.
: You would need to see a Vet for the med of choice this is called IVERMECTIN it is a wonderful speedy cure and very safe as directed by your Avian Vet.
: If you have other budgies treat these also and be sure to clean everything in the cage very very well--replace the purches.
