Looks normal to me. Are you sure the right nare is covered?

Sometimes when the crust has become very thick like this you can gently rub some off (but only if it is able to so no rubbing too hard) - gently wipe/dab some cooking oil over her cere, let it soak in and give it a gentle wipe, some might come off.
It is hard to tell from photos if we are seeing the same as you are, but how is her breathing? Does she have trouble at all, perhaps after flying? If she seems to be struggling, and you can't clean any off, you may need to have a vet look at her. Whatever you do, don't poke at her nostril yourself - you can cause pain and do damage.

Thank you Hezz. I don’t think she’ll let me rub her cere (in fact I know she won’t) but she seems ok, breathing fine. I’ll keep an eye on it and if I think she starts to have difficulty breathing then I will take her to the vets.

Looks normal to me. Are you sure the right nare is covered? It just looks more covered than the other side. She is ok though at present; currently enjoying Chirpy preening her head 😊

It is quite possible that you might notice one morning that she has rubbed some of it off, and don't be surprised if it doesn't come off in one go.

How is Impy's cere? Is she able to breathe through both nostrils now?
