poop question

Like too many of us, I've got a little dove here who is my heart and soul but access to an avian vet is miles and hours away so it feels horribly lonely and frightening when something goes "not right". I've tried the "on-line" services in the past and they always end with "get to a vet". If I...

Hi! I recently moved to a new apartment and my two budgies droppings increased in volume last night (see the pic) Should I be worried about it? Normally their droppings are way smaller. Idk what’s up. They’re both males and i’m wondering if it could be stress of a new apartment? Or even the...

Someone gifted me a green cheek parakeet yesterday, and I've noticed that its feces is green. I heard that that might mean it could be either health issues, or maybe its previous diet is mainly seed-based. Should I bring it to a vet for a check-up? If so do I need to go find an exotic animal vet...

Hi, wondering if I should be concerned about this change in poop color? My lovebird has been eating colorful fruit blend zupreem pellets and homemade chop for almost 2 years now, plus nutriberries, millet, and pure fun zupreem as treats. Her poops are usually rusty reddish/orange in color...

Hey everyone! I just joined this forum today to ask a couple questions about my (45 ish) orange winged amazon. Lately, Ive been noticing a weird smell every morning coming from his cage.

Hi, my baby conure is about 5 months old and seems to be having her first molt! The last time we took her to the vet they said she had a small infection but it could be treated with apple cider vinegar water which we have been giving her for the past 3 weeks. However, I’m concerned about her...

As the title suggests, I've had 2 canaries (M/F) who's been in my care for a year. Sadly one of them passed some time ago (M) and as a result of this I've been even more paranoid and cautious with my other canary (F). I've noticed that her stool has gotten stuck around her anus and some of the...

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...

Hello. I was hoping to ask if you guys could help me figure out my cockatiels poop. I’ve been worried about her to bits ever since my other cockatiel died almost 3 weeks ago. I haven’t been able to bring her to a vet to get her checked because of my financial status as a student and my parents...
