Scratching is a normal, healthy part of your bird's grooming and preening routine. Budgies use their beaks to remove pieces of dead skin much the same as a human scrubs with a washcloth or sponge. Budgies may use their feet to scratch parts of their heads that they can't reach, or they may rub up against a toy or perch. If you budgie trusts you, he or she may even ask you to help with an itchy spot! However, if the bird seems very itchy, if there are bald spots or bleeding, a lump, signs of parasites, or anything else abnormal, you should consult your avian veterianarian right away.
