Odd head feathers

[mainy36]

My budgie has what look like lines with slight black ends on the top of his head. I have attached a picture (hope it worked).

Any advice of what it is please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Everything is fine. Your budgie is just moulting. The new feathers first come through as little black specks, then white waxy covered sheaths. Read through this topic. It will explain all.

I remember how weird it was when I saw that first moulting episode, even when I knew what it was. It does look odd.

Thanks.

It's our first Budgie and I was worried he was losing his good looks.

The good looks would be back soon, even better
