Hi all I have applied for a job at a parrot shop and I went to the shop and came back in shock to see ALL the parrots had abnormal droppings
The poop looked like this, I know my drawing is bad but the poop was green completely, even where the white thing on parrot poop should be..
should I be worried? I have parrots at home and I donnot want them getting sick

First, are they eating a seed based diet? Seed diets will give a green poop.

Second, are you looking at fresh droppings, or are you looking at old ones? Old ones the colors will seep together.

Finally, did you ask them about their vetting and disease testing?

I would always take a shower and change your clothes when you come home from the pet store before handling your birds to be safe.
