My cockatiel isn't drinking

[annasbirbs]

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. Please can somebody help me?

How do you know she's not drinking. Cockatiels don't naturally drink a lot of water. They get the majority of their water from their food. You may not see it but she is drinking some water or she would be dead in a matter of days.

The description of her poop indicates a diet that is lacking key elements. Mainly water.

What is her diet?

How long have you had her? Is this a sudden change in her droppings?

Does she have a bowl for her water, or a bottle?

Why do you think she's afraid of her water? Does she eat vegetables?
