I noticed today that my silver had a white bump on his lower lip, right between the 2 feelers?? they have. It kinda looks like a white pimple...I tried to get pictures but he wouldnt sit still long enough for me to snap it. Any ideas on what this could be???????
 
if its btwn the barbels maybe bruise
 
Anyone else have anything that makes sense?????
 
i meant bruise as in they rubthere barbels on the glass
 
Without pics it is hard to tell, Could it be an injury that has healed over? Maybe it is just some type of wart, sorry I don't really know.
 
OK, i know its not a bruise, its a raised white bump, maybe the size of a pin head, looks like a white pimple on the middle of his lip between his barbels
 
we really need pictures then could b dieases
 
My Blood Parrot also gets these every now and then. From what I have read, (not an expert at all) it may be a parasite. Does it almost look like a white sprinkle covered by a white film? (I know SOOO unscientific)

Some people suggested garlic flakes to strengthen the immune system. I just ordered some online.
 
he still wont let me snap a darn picture of it, ok, heres my best scientific description...have you ever had a whitehead pimple on your face?? when ya pop it white stuff comes out, its just like that..he didnt have it last night, its there today....im clueless here
