Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If birds are healthy, there are no sprays that should be applied to their feathers. In fact, some sprays found online or in pet stores can be harmful to birds, either to their skin or their lungs. If you believe there is a problem with your bird's feathers, I recommend contacting your primary veterinarian who takes care of him to see if he needs to be seen in person for an exam. If he has something like mites that are causing him to itch, he may require specific treatment. I hope this is helpful - best of luck with your budgie!
