I agree with Tinker...totally forgot about mites...I took in a budgie from my friend's daughter who bought him on impulse and then didn't care for him. When I brought him home and had him quarantined I noticed that he was tapping his feet. After watching him for a day, I took him to the vet and he did have mites...we treated his feet and along his beak and after a week-long treatment they were gone and we haven't had any further problems. Another great reason to quarantine which prevented the other birds from being infected. Please keep us posted on your visit.
