Okay. I'll look for these. Should I go ahead and treat everyone to be safe or check first? I started getting straw from a new place about 3-4 weeks ago. Is there a chance they could've been in that and I need to get rid of the straw that I have as well?It can be a problem. The link below will hopefully help you i.d. the critter - lice or mites. Either way getting rid of them is important.
There's a lot of treatment options - you can find Permethrin liquid or dust at TSC. Some folks use Frontline and Sevin while other use Elector PSP (Spinosad).
You would treat him plus his housing.
Check all your other birds too, if they have bugs, then treat them and your coop too.
