Elvis' new favorite activity is playing in the water while I wash my face every day. While he was wet, I noticed a bump on the top of his tail with something that looks similar to a whitehead. After researching, I learned that it is his preening gland. But after probably too much research, I am now a paranoid new mother and want to make sure his is normal, but can't find any pictures of a normal gland!
I took some pictures right after his bath today (his feathers look fine when he's dry) and would appreciate any feedback! I don't want to mess with it if it is healthy, but don't want to risk it being infected or blocked. He acts fine and is eating plenty of formula & seed mixture. Thanks for the help! He is my spoiled baby - I will have to post my pictures of him growing up.
