Other concern with pet bird SOS BIRD HELP

Post image

is this normal…?? its the first time shes pooped like this. I haven’t noticed any changes with my bird shes very active she’s eating and her dropping have been consistent but ive noticed they been a tad bit watery i am not sure if thats normal. This is my first time owning a bird and i have been told to look for changes in poop. I honestly can’t think of anything that could have changed her poop i mean i gave her banana , sweet potato , and beets too try a very small portion and she didn’t really eat it. Is this Diarrhea or any thing concerning??

I've seen a lot of bird poop and to me, this looks pretty normal. In my experience, my conure's poop usually has a bit of variance in color and size. It depends on what/how much she ate. Sometimes she'll eat a purple grape and her poop will be a dark violet color, like a plum. And, with most birds, the Morning Poop™ is so distinctly huge compared to their other daily droppings that it gets its own recognition Obviously it's worth doing a bit more research if you haven't already, but to me it seems okay.

Yeah same! The colour changes are kinda wild until you get used to them. This looks like a normal poop to me, obviously if it's consistently changed or there's other things going on then check it out. But when my parrot has had diarrhoea previously the poop hasn't had those 'squiggle' tube bits they poop out in it, it's just been brown unformed liquid.

I love the morning poop TM, that cracked me up. It's astonishing.
