Hey everyone my grey is only a few months old and for the past few days he has been quiet, timid, and poufy. I dont have access to a vet until Saturday, please can you all have a look at some of his droppings, we suspect something with his belly. He has started eating less also.

Hi, ok the papaya, could explain the colour of his droppings, but they are a bit watery.
I'd advise to get him to a vet as soon as you can.

Cool beans, I wish you luck and my thoughts are with you guys.
It's always daunting when your little ones aren't themselves or well.

He sounds like he's in distress. I'm not a poop expert, but that looks like a lot of urates to me. Good luck at the vet!

I hope he's okay! It might be something minor, like a bacterial infection. Please let us know how the vet goes!

Thank you all sooo much for the support and advice. I will keep everyone updated on how the vet goes tomorrow, we have a feeling maybe he over ate and didnt digest fast enough and that has caused his stomach and crop to get upset. But we'll see what the vet says, thank you all :hug8::hug8::hug8:
