poop

Hey guys! Apologies, I'm probably totally overthinking about this but it's 11pm right now and I'm worried about my lil dude. He's acting absolutely fine and I weigh and monitor his poop daily to make sure it looks healthy. He's also a consistent weight. I've noticed his last two poops have been...

Idk but my birds poop has this in it 😭

Hi everyone, so I have this young parrot, 3 weeks till now, he has been happily living with me all this far, and my family and I take care of it very well. We give is a mush of water and mixed grains, like a paste(A bit watered down one of course, to ensure it isn't very thick). We give it a...

She has been pooping like this since yesterday. What can be the reason? Is it something serious? We don't have any vet anywhere near us bc i live in a village and the nearest vet is like 200kms away. Help me pls

my cockatiel has laid too eggs in the past few days and this is what one of her poops looks like? this is my first cockatiel and this is the first time she’s laid eggs since we’ve had her (she is four years old but we got her in march). she’s been around no males since/before we got her. i just...

Hi everybody! I’m new here and want to ask a question for which me and my veterinarian cannot find an answer. This is how my lovebirds poop looks like, does anybody know what those small green particles are? It is not undigested food. Photos attached. Health story: -3 batches of eggs since...

This is something I learned really fast after getting Rico (almost two years ago). I had budgies prior and they never ever made HUGE turds like Rico does. It was super funny and gross when I saw Rico’s first morning poop. It’s always so shocking to see these HUGE poops, even if they’re old...

I got my budgie a new friend a week ago and she's been having soft stools/diarrhea since I got her. I figured it was stress but today when cleaning their water and food bowls, the new bird (which I assume is 3-4 months old) pooped grey on my arm. It was grey and white in the center, the grey was...

I’ve had my conure for maybe two months now. She is on a mix of 60% Zupreem fruit pellets, 40% sunburst seed mix, and she gets random fruits and vegetables everyday depending on what I am eating. I’ve had a cockatiel before and their poops are definitely way easier to maintain than my conure...

Ok, so recently I have noticed a change in my Green Cheek Conure's poops. I'm unsure if this is bad or not as this is my first time dealing with an issue like this. I've been researching about bird poop in hopes to find out whether or not he is healthy or not as his poops have gone more watery...

I'm curious to know if anyone else has had smelly poops that vets have had a hard time diagnosing and what they did to get back to normal. My African Grey (CAG) has been with us for about 6 years now and he is about 12. In June we had a full physical and wellness exam that he came out with...

I've had my rescued Scarlet Macaw Luna for 3 1/2 years now, and throughout that time (and her year-long foster period beforehand) she has been on a Zupreem pellet diet. She started on the regular fruit blend for large birds, then I started mixing in the natural and veggie blends, and finally...

Hello, I noticed bird poop stuck on his but area. It had some poop stuck on his feathers. This the first time that it has happened. I cleaned it off with warm water and a cloth. He is sleeping right now, he doesn’t seem to be active. He is pooping, he pooped on my hand and on the floor. I did...

Hello! I have a red-lored amazon that has come into my life recently and I am doing a lot of work to build a good relationship with him/her. It's lived a solo life for 20 years with no human contact eating sunflower seeds and some odd moon-shaped pellets that he/she tosses in their water bowl...

I got a green cheek conure 2 days ago and named him melon (he's around 2 months old), he has been active, although not much but I am guessing it's because he's still getting used to the place. I have a few questions about gcc poops 1. Do they poop a lot? Melon keeps pooping a lot, less than 5...

Hi there everyone! This seems to be a normal question on here I've noticed. I just got this boy yesterday and he has been eating a lot of fruit and his seed mix. Can someone tell me if these poops look regular to you or if I should bring him to the vet? I am going to bring him for a baseline...

Before I start I have already talked to the emergency vet who stated to just not give my bird any of the medicine and call my normal vet on Monday to talk about it. Good Morning everyone, I have started giving liquid celebrex to my cockatiel per my vet due to anti-ganglioside antibodies...

Hi ! I'm new here and i don't know if i'm doing it right but i need some help !! I have a sun conure mango he's about 5-6 months old and he was sick couple days ago. He threw up like 4 times at home so I took him to the emergency but they kicked us out because they don't have an avian vet or...

I noticed this morning that one of my budgies is pooping white and he's pooping more often than usual. I cleaned the cage and I've been watching him all day. He's been acting normal (singing, preening, eating, drinking, and playing). I've been observing his poop color throughout the day and...

Hey everyone, I noticed something a little different about Kiwi's poop today, SLIGHTLY URGENT PART: it was a normal color but their were no urates (the water around the poop learned that from google lol). My first thought was maybe he's dehydrated but that doesn't really make sense since he's...

Hey Parrot Mom/Dad community! After having a talk with my avian vet I decided to deliver a feces sample to his lab, but I have a general question that I forgot to ask my vet: Can feces determine infections such as chlamydia? Or do you specifically require a blood sample for that? I really doubt...

Dear Parrot community, I'm currently caught up in a terrible and desperate situation: My regular avian vet (lives in Switzerland) has been infected with Covid19, therefore his entire praxis is currently completely unavailable. The next vet that is not even an avian vet, but rather someone that's...

My conure's poop is kinda thick since he has changed into a fruit mix pellet diet. So when my conure poops so part of the poop sticks to d bottom of d cage , which later on makes my conure's back wings dirty a bit. What can I do ? I clean my cage every week. My conure's actions seems to be...

Tweety :yellow2: is 3-4 years old. She has always been VERY relaxed and chill often sleeping most of the day and playing more around night time. She'll sing sometimes and loves being scratched. She also molts very often, maybe every 3 months? I should have kept a log but never did. My concern...

Hi all. Day 23 with our baby Eclectus. All seems well, except there is a small amount of dry poop building up around the baby's butt. It's not too bad, but I am concerned if I don't act now it may become a problem in the future. The other day I tried using damp paper towel at 40c (104F) but...

Heyy! Just a funny post and also a serious question. First the question: Did you potty train your parrot? How? With this I mean, does he fly somewhere to poop when he needs? Or at least does he move from your shoulder to not poop on you? I say this cause Mambo has been 1% potty trained...

Just curious if any active forum-goers have any experience with successfully keeping errant felines from pooping in their yard? My SO laid down prickly mats I purchased online (they're not injurious) to dissuade them from certain areas where vegetables and herbs and flowers are grown. But I...

Hi all! Does anyone make their own cage cleaner or "poop off" cleaners? If so would you mind sharing your recipes with me? I've read that some people use water, lemon juice, and baking soda, but I'm concerned that the combination of baking soda and lemon juice may damage my cage in the long...

Hi all! I’m having a bit of trouble with my GCC. He/she is 1 year old. He is a good little bird, sweet and loving, but HE WONT POOP IN HIS CAGE! I’ve done everything. I bought him a day time cage because I thought maybe he didn’t like pooping where he slept, that didn’t work, I stoped letting...

We have a blue fronted Amazon named Skipper. :green: He is around 28ish. We have had him 1 year. He is fairly aggressive to most people, including myself but loves my husband. We are working on it, but its a process. Yesterday my husband mentioned 'Skipper' was making cooing sounds and...

This morning, I woke up to my African Grey sleeping in her box (she loves boxes, but has never slept in one all night like this), she got out of the box after a while and ate and drank as usual. Then she went to the top of her cage and took the biggest poop I've ever seen her do and it was quite...

Why on earth does my Lilly poop every time I enter the room and say hi, or when I go over to talk to her. Literally every time. Is this a social thing? LOL :p She's beautiful, look at her. She's a poop machine.

Here's what I hope is a quick and hopefully simple question. So I started giving Kermit frozen peas in her food this week. What I feed is what I have available, but this week's was a bit of strawberry and blueberries, broccoli, and a frozen mix of peas and carrots (no salt). I think she...

Doing my weekly cleaning of Linus's cage, I found a spot with overlapping perches and I hadn't noticed he has been pooping all over the lower perches. How can I clean this so that it is all removed and sanitary?
