Tycos_mom Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I would definatly take that poop in and have it checked and take that bird off anything that you can make oil with such as sunflower peanuts safflower corn Ive seen that kind of poop before with an amazon I use to have that had a liver problem he's fine and still liveing and healthy but his liver condition was due to Obesity from the person who had him before me. I put him on Aloe detox which has milk thistle in it and took him off all fatty food and his liver healed itself Your baby is young though so it could be something else I would get that bird checked out if I where you and you right it stinks Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 TycosMom is right on. That is not normal looking poo for a Grey or any other Parrot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonidas Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 Does it mean that he has to go to a vets?... he is healthy, eating right... ONLY the poop in the morning is like that.. the rest is normal.. can i take a sample of the poop and they can check that instead?... can they run tests on that to find out the cause? i really don't want to take him to the vets, because it is really stressful on him...

danmcq Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 One question, I just remebered that your Grey is around 16 to 17 weeks old. Are you still feeding him formula? If so, Their poo is the color and form your picture indicates. If you are still feeding formula, how much is he accepting at the last evening feeding before bed time?

leonidas Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 and for tycosmom.. he did start eating some seeds in the middle.. but i quit giving him those.. because i had heard that they arent good. he likes him apples.. he likes cheerios too..... but he has his zupreme pellets as the main diet..

danmcq Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 The poo's seem to indicate his last feeding in the evening is comprized completely of the Katee Exact formula nad not eating seeds, veggies or fruits afterwards. Is that correct? Thats what his poo seems to indicate. It would still not hurt to atleast take the poo in for the v Avian vet to see, perhaps test and comment on. If they are not an avian vet, they may not know if it is normal or not just by looking at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
