whats wrong with my parakeet2007-11-24 17:26:16

Sometimes giving too many greens causes watery diarrhea.could this be the case? If so, withhold them for a few days to see if this clears it up.

Otherwise some sort of infection could be present in the body and your hen may need an antibiotic to clear it up.

Also, is she broody.sitting in a nest.laying eggs? Best to write every detail down to bring to the vet with you so as not to forget anything that may be important. When you do take her, be sure to put her in a smaller carrying cage if possible and wrap well if cold where you are. No point in getting her sick on the way! Best wishes and maybe in the comment section, let us know the outcome.

This is the watery waste from the kidneys. There will be varying amounts of liquid urine in a dropping depending on the amount of water ingested. For example, a bird that is consuming a lot of fruits and vegetables (with high water content) will urinate more than a bird that is just eating dry pellets. Of course, a bird should always have access to fresh, clean drinking water, and it is best delivered by the use of a water bottle to prevent bacterial contamination from fecal matter and foods dunked in the water bowl.There are three parts to your birds droppings. Fecal,the dark middle part,the Urates,the white part,and Urine. This sort of thing can happen when the bird has a kidney problem. Keep an eye on your bird for any signs of ill health.See a vet immediately if you suspect illness.
