poop

As some of you may already know from my plethora of posts over the last several months, I am still very new to the world of birds. Every day is pretty much a new experience for me. Today for example, Lada finally started REALLY talking (but only when she thought I couldn't hear her haha). While...

Alright so this has been bugging me since day one... I have been living with my finches for a few months now and Lada has been with me for a week or two now and I still have trouble understanding the magic of "YouTube poop". Allow me to explain as I know you are probably pretty confused. I...

Hi everybody, I'm new here, I'm wondering if anyone can help me. My cockatiel is not drinking. She usually is fine, but now I think she's actually scared of drinking her water. I'm worried about her. There is no urate in her poop, and it's dark green and very sticky. I don't know what to do...

PICTURE OF BIRD DROPPINGS BEWARE! ---------------------------------------------------------------- So I had to raise a baby seagull (He is about a month and almost able to fly) and I'm worried about his droppings. Lately he has only been wanting to eat shrimps (he used to eat wet cat food and...

Not sure if this is the right place to post this? (admin feel free to move it) But does anyone use these "bird diapers"? In theory they're great, plus they look cute. But how do birds like them? Does it really even catch the poop? Or does it slide out? Anyone use these? (by the way, i know...

Sunflower (a 3mo GCC) had been a little off today. She seems a extra clumsy this afternoon (she is normally an adorable klutz). Her poos have also been extra watery. They look normal except for the excess water. She also seems to be angry with my husband. He went to work today for the first time...

Hi! I'm a relatively new parakeet owner. Parry and Bloo are part of my new family! They've been with me for 2 months and a month respectively. I'm concerned as I just picked them up from my birdsitter who looked after them during spring break, reported that they were furiously eating and were...

this morning I got Leaf up and he didn't do his morning poo until he was on my couch. when I wiped it up it looked vaguely concerning. I'm about to call my avian vet because he's sitting puffed up on my knee instead of his usual self. I'm really worried right now UPDATE: called the vet and he...

Hi everyone! I've come to notice that my sun conure's poops are smaller in size and more solid and less liquidy lately than his usual stools. He eats lots of fresh fruits every morning and drinks plenty of water whenever I offer it to him and takes baths almost everyday. The past two days I...

Okay guys please please help. Ive got my budgie today and a while ago he pooped fine. Now i was checking on him/her and i saw his tail a bit up so i checked his vent and he was pooing! Awhile after his tail was still up and it seems he cant pass his poo or its stuck to his vent. It looks normal...

Hi all, I've had my sweet cockatiel Ollie for about a week now and i'm just running into a minor issue trying to teach her to stay out of the food bowl. I've tried everything I can think of short of getting her a feeder, but I'm unsure how reliable those are and how easily she'll be able to...

hey guys! I could use some advice. I have a 9 year old Queen of Bavaria (Golden) Conure named Hunter ... He is my baby so I'm a serious worry wart. In the last two weeks, my husband and I went to Mexico for our anniversary. During the time (8th-15th), we boarded our boys at a local spot we've...

Hi Bird lovers!! I was just wondering how everyone stays on top of the bird poop issue. I've tried laying down papers but when Blu flaps his wings, they float around the room and don't stay put. I also have a Great Dane who loves to get under his tree and "forage" through all of Blu's food...

Hi all! I know this has been discussed before, and I've read the past posts and realize that it may be a natural behavior, but I'm going on vacation in a few days and am concerned she'll try to hold her poop so long she'll make herself sick. I'm wondering if anyone else has a bird that won't...
