I remember when my bird had metal poisoning his poops turned a bright green colour and were a bit more runny (he wasn't eating either so his poops slowly turned just white and clear), he is all good now and thankfully made a full recovery. Interestingly the green colour was almost identical to his poops when he was eating coloured pellets so i was quite happy he was not eating coloured pellets at the time as his poops would have been much harder to identify! Great video!!
I fed my birds carrots and they pooped orange. They usually don’t eat so much carrot that their poop turns orange, but they didn’t like their pellets and were still transitioning to pellets, so they ate more carrots than they usually do. And I totally freaked out lol. I thought they were having internal bleeding or something. But no it was just carrots.
Thank you for this video, great information. It is all about poops with my budgies. One of them has bad kidneys so very often she just squirts clear water or sometimes it contains a little bit of urates, only rarely she has the normal poop. I have noticed the other two will have bright green, slightly loose poops either when they get hungry over night or when stressed. Then of course we look out for the beetroot poop - a good way to check whether they eat their chop or not
Thank you ❤ my baby is under one year and more on the leaner side (58-62 grams) since I give her lots of fresh veggies and grains on top of her Harrison’s organic mix. I was so concerned with her poop being too watery and having too much scattered white stuff instead of it being more consistent with tooth paste. I fed my little green cheek some live meal worms and more seeds and she’s a back to normal again
My ringneck is having yellow watery dropping, the vet says he is having typhoid, he prescribed Enerfloxicine, neomycine and tetracycline, and Hepamerz, i am concered that parrot might not have liver problem, if so 3 antibiotics would further demage his liver. Here in my city no proper birds vets.
We have a 23 year old African Grey we inherited, we live in Los Angeles CA. Avian vets are SOOO EXPENSIVE here. The last time we took her it was $1500.00. Turned out nothing was wrong with her thank goodness. They only did minimum testing because I couldn't afford it. She's fine now but if something serious happens WTF will we do😢😢😢
I’m glad for videos like this because that’s how I first realized that my cockatiel was getting ill. He had bright green poops with polyuria and I took him into the vet and they put him on antibiotics for a bacterial infection. He’s getting better but still has polyuria and green poops, he had to go to the vet twice as the first antibiotics didn’t work so he had to have a shot. They said he had an ear infection poor guy, he’s been miserable and I’ve had him in a smaller cage with a heating pad for the past two weeks but today is the first day he wanted out and was singing a little so I think he is on the mend. My vet also said to give him a probiotic so he’s been taking that in his water. At one point he had shiny crystallized urates and I am glad to say that is gone now as I read that could be a sign of kidney problems.
Hlo! Sophie, i want to know about my birds ( GCC ) some days they eat well and some days they don't eat that much, when they don't eat that much their poop size became smaller. What should i do? When they eat less they don't became less active and nothing change in behaviour, but i want to know that is it normal behaviour or not? Thanks for your informative videos 😊
Superb information ❤❤❤ bless u dear. I have a red flag 🚩 situation, with dark green poop. And that green splat of poop is also very accurate, our female teil did that when she was laying egg. I have a question, would really appreciate if you have any answer. I purchased a teil bird, she was very under wgt from the breeder, her poop used to hang like a noodle and not drop. We got her treated and it was ok for 2-3 yrs…now she is having an issue again and she also threw up food this time. Do you anything abt this situation?? She preens, break grinds, fly’s, but her usual high energy is not there. We have tried everything but it keeps happening
@@BirdNerdSophie we already got her checked, she was given antibiotics, poor thing lost a lot of wgt. Yet it re occurred…if it helps the poop is sticky and like a noodle coil. I asked just incase u have seen this before. All your information was spot on otherwise. We already took her to 3 vets, so just thought to ask what do u think abt it. I do understand you are not a vet but would appreciate your thoughts on it. Thnks for all your help.
@@BirdNerdSophie your thoughts are helpful already, we will get the test done..the upset happened right after she had sun flower seeds. We generally donot give our birds too many seeds, this one time on a sunday we did, mostly only fresh soft foods. This definitely could be the reason because of the vomit, I suspect. Can seeds cause indigestion?? Also what do you recommend for that if thts the case? God bless your heart for such quick response ❤️💐🥰💕😇, we hv tried to research it all over, but theres hardly any useful information we could find. I love her so much, shes part of my family..shes so heavily bonded she wouldn’t eat a meal without me or even play without me. She goes everywhere with us..Shes like a flying doggo i really pray she bounces back from this😔
@@rose7777 seeds wouldn’t cause stomach issues alone, but an ‘off batch’ or maybe the fresh food could’ve gone bad with you realising which could maybe contribute to it! If a bird has a digestive upset, we usually offer apple cider vinegar - I have a video on that which talks about the dosage etc!
Hello, my male zebra finch is bloated and puts his head on the pillow, and his stool is yellow and watery, what should I do to treat it, please guide me.

@@Mqestical I’ve managed to find bird vets in all kinds of countries so more than happy to help people there, but it’s technically illegal to give out veterinary advice in the UK of you aren’t a vet!
@@BirdNerdSophie also i wanted to know if I buy 2 brown and white CockaTiel (both for 1k sar tho) or Gray And Yellow Cockatiels For 240 SAR so what to choose I am buying cockatiels in 14 days wish me good luck pls because our last bird survived 2 months and died :(
Thanks so much! Vet bill though is so expensive for a check up about 40-60 pounds, But I will see what I can do she's luckily doing alright, She's on clever girl @@BirdNerdSophie
hi idk if youll reply to this but recently my birds been pooping a rusty orange brown colour, we havent changed her diet at all and the only thing i can think of is her new xmas toys, shes a cockatiel, what is this signs of and what action is required? im gonna try take her to the vet today
Hi there i need help, i don’t have an avian vet near me but my budgie has been pooping white/cream for a whole day now, and i don’t know what to do. is there anything i can do at home?
@BirdNerdsophie do i have to worry because i fed my parrot watermelon and its poop is red should i be worried!?!? i mean myparrot acts normal and isnt acting weird and also my country doesnt have a vet btw😢
ok now the poop is blackish green looks normal and thank you 😊 do you know a way to get my parrot to drink to drink water cuz it wont drink water or eat seeds
only eat watermelon and it fed it today cuz it wont eat anything else and its a green cheek conure a full feather grown still a baby my dad and the parrot owner the person who sold me the parrot told me it need to move to eating love bird mix aka seed and i need help and advice to get it to eat anything other then melon and also a way for it to drink water
My parrot just was walking on the floor and dropped a freaking bomb. I can't not be gross because I was stuck in WTF just happened mode for a good minute. Like... Not exaggerating half an inch high and the size of a fidget spinner. It is a tinny African Grey. I couldn't wipe it up with tissue, literally had to scoop it up. So gross. It is in the evening and he did the same thing two more times in the last hour. Seems totally fine. Still regret typing this. But seriously. WTF
He is fine, and I have had him out watching him. Completely normal. He ate cooked buckwheat today. There are two and they were breeder birds but couldn't make fertile eggs, praying it isn't the female. With me all day...Also to top off the bird poop story. Fully green. Your welcome. (God please no eggs)
Hi, my parrot is 1 month old. I think my parrot has polyuria, but sometimes the feces it produces are like normal feces. How to treat birds affected by polyuria?

Hey sophie I sent you an email to review my cage I am the guy with the two white bellied caiques I sent you two separate emails I hope you are able to receive it and possibly review it in your next cage reaction video , As I said In the email I am still adding and rearranging things in the cage..

Really important video and I know how much effort you put into it!
We get asked about this so much too!
Never thought I’d spend so long drawing poops 😂
@@BirdNerdSophiewhat does yellow mean?? Cuz my parrot had yellow poop with black.
@@mananachumburidze8455 that would need to be checked by a vet!

Glad to hear he is okay!
Metal poisoning can also cause black poops or ones with blood in which is why it’s so important to get them checked out!

And I totally freaked out lol. I thought they were having internal bleeding or something. But no it was just carrots.
I hate the red pepper poops our guys do as they stain everything 😂 so interesting how food can give so much colour to bird poops!

This is why it's so important to know your own bird! Each one is an individual :)

Sometimes more watery foods can make the poops softer with more urine! Glad to hear all is bac to normal!
This was so much helpful, thank you❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you I found this very helpful I am struggling to find a vet for my 2 girls and I just rescued my second girl today I’m in the Uk south east area
