Strange poop in an 8-month-old Amazon

[h4l1.png]

After I ran out of absorbent paper, I put some greaseproof paper on it and quite by chance I saw some strange poop. Take a look at the pictures, what do you think, is this okay?

In my opinion, any of the vets listed here should be better than a regular vet.
International contacts, too.
If none are near you, maybe you could call and ask for a recommendation for somebody in your area.
And... sometimes, distant vets will offer brief thoughts or advice...
Or... sometimes I find a place to start just by Googling "avian veterinarian near ((your location))"
Or maybe a local breeder might help... again, maybe Google?

After a suggestion by a member, @Abu Colo, the Mod Team decided to create a list of veterinarians around the world who see birds. This was something we had discussed a few years ago, but the task seemed so large that we didn't get very far. However, the need is there and we decided that the time was right to get it done.
Not all the vets listed are CAVs, but all treat birds from what we could determine.
To find out if a vet is a CAV, you can search the websites of the ones in your area.
We started working...​

Looks like pretty normal parrot poop to me but let's see what other members say.
Is he acting, eating and drinking normally?

I don’t see anything really alarming in the poop.
The one photo that looks a little foamy is a bit odd but it’s a small poop.

You have to take a longer term approach to monitoring poop and keep in mind changes in diet and water content.

A major change, take your bird to the vert right away.
