jjaura Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hello everyone!! my baby grey is 9 months old now, and I’ve noticed that he’s had a couple droppings that resemble diarrhea, and one today had a bubble in it. Majority of his droppings are normal! And i have read and re read all the poopology charts etc. But can certain foods be causing this?! His weight hasn’t changed, he talks up a storm and still himself otherwise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greytness Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Hi jjaura! Is today the first you've noticed the liquidy-bubbly droppings? If so, then see how things look tomorrow. Birds with infections can have bubbly poop, so if it continues, you might want to take in a stool sample for a gram stain. Did you change anything in his diet by any chance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjaura Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 Yeah it was the first day, and I’ve been kind of playing around with different fruits & veggies to see if I can find something he actually likes!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greytness Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 It might likely be the diet adjustments. How are his poops today? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjaura Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 Can seeds cause a softer poop? I’ve noticed after his nutriberry treats he has softer droppings! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greytness Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Not sure. I'd think that fresh fruits and veggies would cause that over seeds if anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjaura Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 I ended up getting a fecal float done at the vet to be sure! Everything’s in check 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
