My Cockatiel (who is about 3 months old or so...) has begun to exhibit
rather watery droppings. He is eating a seed diet (supplemented with
petemine (sp?), some pellets, and a decent amound of "people" food.
Mainly he likes pasta and tofu.) He is alert and seems happy. Is there
something wrong with him, or is this to be expected? The droppings are
brownish surrounding a whiteish centre, and then expelled with a
surprising quantity of clear liquid i am assuming is water. (Enough to
wet an area perhaps the size of a quarter.) Any suggestions?
