:28: Merry X-mas everyone

at school we have been doing secret santa.

 

BUT........

that's not the point the point is that recently I caught

Jellybean's poop sticking around his vent like play dough

to hair, it falls out but I was wondering if he's sick.

 

anyway please reply and reply often because I havn't got many replies

for nearly a week.

 

PS: sorry for sounding a bit desperrate

 

bye bye

When poop is like that it does indicate a bird is sick. I suggest making an appointment with your avian vet and have a poop smear along with an examination. Sticky poop can be a number of things and since we are not vets and can't see the bird we can't diagnosis.

 

Here are some signs to look out for in the meantime:

 

What color is the poop? This is very important because it can indicate if a bird has not eaten or drank.

Can you feel his keel bone? If it is prominant that shows he has lost weight

His eating/drinking habits? What are they like?

 

Some suggestions is to keep in warm room (75 F at least), keep him quiet, change the newspaper often so you can observe the poops, encourage him to eat millet if he is eating nothing else.

 

Most of call call the avian vet.

Sorry I'm not help, just wanted to wish you good luck.

 

Oh and speaking of pee I nearly wet myself laughing at your siggy :yes:

Are you able to get some Murphy minerals ...

 

It is in a small container from most bird suppliers ...

 

Poop sticking to bum is not a good sign ...

thanks

the poop is dark green and white;and dries quickly,

I can feel the breast bone,

and Jellybean's still eating a little less than normal.

I will ask mum to phone the vet as soon as possible.

Is there anything I can do to help jellybean in the mean time?

 

I worried about him...... :rofl:

keeping her warm above 75F in a room, keeping her quiet, making sure she is still eating and drinking and the avian vet appointment scheduled today.

Will do KAZ will do
