I have a pair of Java finches. A few days ago I noticed tiny white spots on one of the finch’s head. It was not there before. Is this a symptom of any disease?

I have a Canary and a Finch with a hard, smooth growth over its beak (looks like keratin) that is starting to seal the upper and lower beak together. What is this?

I noticed my canary moving it's neck oddly up and down in a manner which suggested trying to swallow. That night fluffed feathers ..by morning sitting bottom cage. I cleaned cage with disinfectant..gave bottled water and thick towel over cage next night. Seemed better next day..eating and drinking. But not chirping or squeaking which it usually does. It's quite vocal normally. Today. I here him chirp but tiny barely audible. There was a plastic plant that go moved and a general leaf was in back of cage...im afraid he might have a piece of plastic in his throat. Is there any thing I can do at home?

Hi there one of my finches has what looks like a blocked nasel as something is on the entry of her nasel passage but only one side of her beak. She's rubbing it on brachces to get it off it causes her her rub the side of her face down around her eye area. How can I remove this without causing it to bleed. I understand they only have one teaspoon of blood in entire body per say. We are in coronavirus at moment so no vets are able to help.

We have a young female zebra finch that is losing her feathers on her head. Her father had the same thing (spread down from his head to his back) and ended up dying. We thought, at first, it might have been his mate feather plucking, but now that the offspring has the same thing happening, that doesn't seem likely. Vet didn't find anything wrong with the male, but we haven't taken the female in yet. Any ideas what it could be? Could it be something contagious or passed down through the genes? Any idea if antibiotics would help and how they would be admistered to a little finch? Thank you for reading.
