Urgent Clogged nose issue

[CockatielLover]

My bird seem to have a clogged nose and has this weird brown crust stuck to his nostril. Not in it but on the outside of it

hi Ethan, are you hearing sneezes from the bird? if so are they wet or dry? what is the humidity like in your house? is the bird huddled up or not ? not eating or not? can you take a picture that what helps us a lot to see what you are talking about ??

Could it be food?

A steamy bathroom or misting him might help get it off it's food. If it's night time where you are though you don't want to get him wet this late and have him get a chill. Or will he let you try wiping it off?

You can try to clean it with a moist Q-tip, be gentle, let us know.
