Sora, my budgie has started having runny droppings. Its a dark green color and watery. She's eating well though. I can feel her chest bone too, is that normal?

 

Thank you, Ashleigh.

Thank you, Ashleigh.

Have you been feeding the bird to much green food? lettuce etc.

Would be good to know the diet... How long has it been runny? Has the food you've been feeding her changed recently?

It isnt always about food...............its more often about illness.

 

Before we go jumping to conclusions you really need to give us MORE INFORMATION

Her diet is just seed from the pet store. I have given her some apples before, but not recently. Her poo has only been runny for a day.

I'd be thinking about taking her to a vet.. We can't really diagnose her without seeing pictures of the poo or the budgie...

 

Budgies need a varied diet though, do a search for safe foods and try and give her a good mix of vegetables as well as a good quality seed.

If her keelbone feels sharp as well as the runny poop then she is losing weight and taking her for a well bird checkup at an avian vet would be a good idea. Its the weightloss that concerns me.

Urine is yellow too, I though it was supposed to be clear/white. My dad doesn't want to take her to the vet because she doesn't 'look' sick.

Check this out and identify the poop your bird is doing

once you match it to your bird..........show your dad

 

Too many people equate the initial cost of the bird to the cost of a vet visit. If we applied those rules to humans there wouldnt be too many of us left.
