He sometimes eats his poop!


Journeyman

Recommended Posts

Hi again,

It's Journeyman, long time no talk, I've been busy. Here's an interesting question... every once in a while Cosmo, my CAG, will sit on the bottom of his cage and eat his poop! :sick: I feed him well and his cage is cleaned regularly. It doesn't seem to effect him and he doesn't do this often, is this an instinctual thing?

Unless there's obvious sickness, periodically a grey and other species will eat fecal matter because small perrticles of food go right through their digestive systems and mix in with the droppings and many times a birds eats through it to get to those particles. Could be seeds, pellets, nuts. Anything that can stay firm.
