hello everyone ive noticed these scaly marks on my blue budgies beak. I heard about scaly face i think it could be that. I am just looking for an outsiders perspective as i am a new budgie owner. The yellow bird appears to be fine what do you think?

It's hard to see from these pictures but it does look like the blue one could have it but we'd need much clearer pictures to be certain. Are they both in the same cage? If so, they will both be need to be treated as the mites will travel to the other bird.

The photos are not sharp enough to tell, in my opinion. But if in any doubt get the ivermectin and treat them both. The blue will need two or three treatments to clear up the infestation. Directions would be on the packaging.
