He has digestive issues and leaks oil. So at most he gets four sunflower seeds. Well last night he had 25 or so because I had opened a new bag and forgot to remove them. The last time he had so much fat he spent two days in the ER in oxygen at the clinic and almost didn't make it. I thought for sure he was going to be ill today but he's just fine! Thank goodness!

thanks folks! yes, Robin. First thing i checked this morning was to see if he had thrown up during the night - he hadn't. There were no oil stains on the white paper on h is cage floor either. I have to thank Sarah @Macawnutz for recommending Prozyme, a digestive enzyme that he has been on for several months on, now.

Well sounds like his overall health considering everything going on has improved and he dodged a bullet. Considering parrots tend to eat whatever nasty thing they can get their beaks on it's a wonder more of our fids don't get sick from binging on something they shouldn't eat.
Dobby loves soap and tries to eat the tooth paste tubes if we leave bathroom doors open and he decides to explore...:facepalm:

Momazon has confirmed he did it when he was with her flock too and all we can figure is it must taste sweet or something. She was always afraid the vet would tell her he had soap poisoning like on Christmas story...

After eating all of those it's good that he is OK. Very scary.

It's the prozyme. It has done wonders for him. He was on Harrison's enzymes before but his poop still had oil rings around it. Haven't noticed any lately.

Oh how scary! I'm so glad he's going to be okay. Thank goodness for the wonderful care you give him to keep him healthy, and that the prozyme works so well!
