Help! Showbird that may have mites!

. I don't know if these are mite eggs or not, but I've already dusted and bathed her just in case. Are these mite nests?

Lice actually, those are eggs. They won't affect you but she's not showable with those eggs on her feathers. Remove them the best you can, someone on here said cocoa butter helps.

Yep, I agree with Whittni. Coat the birds feathers with Coconut oil and work out the eggs that way. Good luck!
