i have a parakeet and he poops seriously about every 5 minutes, and its not normal poop either.its sometimes watery and yellow/white.could he be sick?if so do you know what he might have?

thanks in advance.

ok, I'm not quite sure how informed you are with birds. And I may not be hitting the mark at all.

But, when birds go to the bathroom, the release both the urine and feces(poop) at the same time. This relust in a watery white/yellow goo, and might have some greenish brownish looking stuff in the middle.

I've had birds that did it a lot. They are messy animals when they live in a cage. It's quite gross.


My advice would be to call a veterinarian who deals with avians (birds). There may be nothing wrong with him, and the veterinarian can tell you for certain whether he may be sick or not.
