Hey. My cockatiel has had weird poops for about two weeks, but they weren't constant. The first time (really watery, not always with feces, only urates, and clean urine) they went away after one and a half days, so I didn't take him to the vet. Now, after almost two weeks he's having them again. It does feel like he eats a bit more chop, so I'm thinking maybe it's from the chop? But some of the poops look to me like he could have a bacterial infection. I've taken the pellets out of his diet for two days now, so he's only eating seeds at this moment. Here are some pictures:
Poop from right after eating chop-yesterday morning
Another one from after chop. This one looks like it has some bits in it. (it looks to me like it could be plum skin?? The chop does have plums in it)
A few hours after eating chop, well formed, but still has little bits in it.
Last night's poop, right before bed. well formed, and green. (keep in mind he has only been eating seeds these past 2 days)
This morning's poop.
After the morning poop he had a normal poop, like the last night's poop, well formed and all the components there, and right when I was writing this, he had this poop, pretty watery. (it did fell from the top of his cage-1.5 m- so that's probably why it splashed like that, but it's still watery.
I'm thinking of taking him to the vet. What's stopping me is the fact that I know he'll be really stressed out. If I do take him, I'll ask the vet to also do some blood work on him, since he's never had it done and I want to be sure he's all good. what do you think?
