poop

Hello everyone, and thanks in advance for taking the time to read! So, today morning I noticed that my 9yo budgie hadl ost quite some feathers in the vent area, and later in the afternoon I saw him go there himself and 4 more feathers fell from the intense "cleaning" he was doing. Also important...

Hello, I am hopeing someone can give me suggestions as to what might be wrong with my female budgie. She is about 4 years old. I started noticing these redish discharge marks at the bottom of the cage. I have already taken her to our avian vet and they did some bloodwork and it all came back normal.

Hi there! I got my new cockatiel at the very beginning of this month. For reference he turned two months on January 5th so he's almost three months old. The rate at which he poops has gone down in the few weeks I've had him and a bit suddenly. He doesn't sport any signs of illness so I was...

So I've been trying to play with Mickey for the past few days now, but he's acting nervous like he's regressed. I think this is somewhat normal, but the difference with this is that I'm currently sitting in front of his cage with the door open, and there's a faint nasty smell coming from the...

I just picked up an 8 week old CBC. He is pretty timid, but not super scared. The breeder said he was weaned, but I don’t think that is the case. I got him yesterday afternoon(it is now 8am the next day) and he has not touched his food or water. The breeder fed him baby food right when I got...

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...

why does my indian ringneck strain while doing her morning poops? thankfully it’s the only time she strains the rest of the day she poops with ease it’s only in the morning when she wakes up. i know morning poops are the biggest ones they do so that could be the reason but she never used to...

Hello! I’ve recently noticed some changes in my parrots poop. Her morning poops are way bigger than usual (which I’m not too worried about) but sometimes they be watery and the green part bes stringy. Sometimes they stay watery throughout the day. However it eventually goes back to normal...

Hey everyone, I'm just posting here to get some advice. My orange winged amazon is about 45-50ish (we are unsure of exact age, he could be older or younger), but he has been quivering a bit (hes done this for past year or so, vet checked his breathing & did other tests and said everythings ok a...

Does this poop look normal to you guys? My cockatiel sometimes has romaine lettuce or pea’s before bed, and his overnight poop sometimes looks like this in the morning. Sometimes it happens during the day also. My vet wants to test for chlamydia. His liver enzymes are normal. Sometimes he has...

I have a six year old cockatiel and all day today she has had black-looking droppings that are dark brown if looked at closer. She is acting completely normal (eating and drinking etc) so i'm not sure if I should be worried. I did take her to see my mom 4 days ago who has a conure and a yellow...

(I don't know where to put this, so mods can put it wherever appropriate if this isn't) (FYI: My timezone is GMT+3) "Again" meaning I took my cockatiel to a vet this Oct 2nd because of stool/poop suspicions (notably seeds in stool, bubbles in stool, the vet noticed diarrhea too). "Saturday"...

Hello! My indian ringneck parrot layed 2 (infertile) eggs early last month, it was her first time and it was soo stressful for me! :sad11: Ever since then, I’ve been weighing her regularly to notice any changes in her weight. I’ve found that when she wakes up she’s 121g, and by the end of the...

This is kind of a weird situation and not really safety, but I wasn't sure if it would fit in behavior either... My birds (2 budgies and 1 cockatiel) live in my small birdproofed room, where my bed is across from the bird cages. Their food gets EVERYWHERE in my room, including on my bed because...

Hello, I was wondering if these look like normal urates? This is a dropping from my 5 month old female GCC. I noticed there are two tiny bubbles it looks like as well, should I be concerned?

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...

Hi, I know it’s probably not anything to worry about but im just making sure. My 4 year old African grey accidentally stepped in his own poo while out of his cage. He does not let me clean his feet, so I gave him water to rinse off in. While I was getting the water, I saw him clean a piece of...

So over the last two day my budgie has woken up with poop on his butt. he gets the occasional sticky poop during the day but it always comes off on it's own. Day before yesterday I noticed a significant amount of poop stuck to his vent. I cleaned it off and watched him. No more stuck poops and...

I recently got my Alex x from a rehoming, (hatched 2018) and have noticed that when he grinds his beak (and only when he grinds his beak for a while) he gets an occasional foamy bubble while doing so I'm not noticing any other symptoms of illness -his eyes, nose, and bum seem to be all clear...

Hi, so my budgie has had dirty vent on and off for almost as long as I’ve had him. It’s something I’ve always been concerned about, so I took him to two different vets and they’ve said that he was fine. One even did a fecal exam and the results came out clean. But his poop is extremely watery...
