Valve ticking when cold

When my engine is cold I've been getting some valvetrain noise. When it warms up it goes away. The oil level is fine. It sounds like just one lightly tapping rocker. Any thoughts on this? Oil pump going bad? Wrong oil weight?

How old is your engine head? How is it built? What cams? Lifters? valve-springs? What oil are you using?
