Vamppire Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Little Spencer just dropped this. This is different from any of his other poos I've seen all week. I've had him for 8 days, he is about 18 wks, CAG, and he had a full checkup (physical, blood and stool tests) at an avian vet last Saturday and was A-OK. Over the past 24 hours he's eaten zupreem fruit pellets, thawed frozen vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots), a couple grapes, a piece of orange, a nutriberry and almond. Is this just an increase in urine from the watery foods or is this diarrhea or some other poo problem I should be concerned about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdnut Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I think Spencer is probably fine. My grey makes poops that look a lot like this. The amount of urine can vary a lot from poop to poop. It doesn't really look like diarrhea, as there are well formed stools in it. Also, the Zupreem Fruit Blend pellets can give the poops different colors.

Luvparrots Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Fruits make the poops watery, especially grapes which are very liquidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) Good advice, try 1 piece of fruit every couple of days, try Zupreem natural pellets, Feed him a little cooked pasta, [Orzo, elbow] Looks like diet to me.

Just wait until Spencer decides to eat all the "Red" pellets.... guess what color the Poop will be? It looks perfectly normal considering the grapes, veggies and orange consumed. More liquids in equals more fluid type poop. It is endearing to see you love your baby so much that you are inspecting each one. Your going to be a GreYt Parront!!!

Vamppire Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Hehe thanks Dan! I'm so happy there's a place I can post my new-mommy worries and questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Where else would it be entirely proper to post pictures of your grey's poops, glad we could put your worries to rest at least in this case, next question! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinner Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Consider, too, that you had a vet visit last week. Perhaps a shot was given? The stress from a vet visit can upset a bird's system for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
