Default lets talk bowel movements here!

Zuppy just did the wierdest thing.. he started leaning back off his perch and kept doing it 5 or 6 times almost like he was constipated..then all of a sudden he let fly... i mean god my dogs would have been proud of the size of that thing.. its really light green and running but it landed about 2 feet from the cage.. like a fecking watergun!!! anyone else ever had this happen?

Ive had this happen with Mr Buddy. Scared me to death! I was so worried. As long as he goes back to solid in a few poops he is ok. Did you feed him something watery?

Dont panic. Let him have a few more poops before you decide. But I know, its scary. Maybe he had a big drink of water. When Mr Buddy does it it takes at least 3 to 5 good poops to go solid again.

Thank God Zuppy was ok in the end.....or else I would have been stuck with you for even longer!

hahaha!!! Elmo might have thought Zuppy to scream just like him. Wouldn't that be such a cute thing? lol

A lot of Ollie's morning poops go similarly (she holds it all night long). Her next one is always fine.

Our Ruby macaw, Lilly, hangs on the front side of her cage every morning and ensures that her poop lands at least a foot form the cage on the plastic surface that we have provided for just that purpose! LOL As far as the poop itself, I am attaching an article that might help.

TSK! My boy is smart....he would fly after the car all the way home (shoot...shouldn't have clipped his wings).

The funny thing is...when I am working nights he doesn't make a sound at all
