| Zadas poop is kind of runny and bubbly..? She hasn't eaten anything that would make her poop runny. Last night she had brown rice, fish, peas, and a small bite of whole grain bread.

| Green and white, but when I went to clean it up it also has some brown in it. And I noticed she is still playing with her poop. Today she grabbed my finger, she had poop on her beak and it got on me O.O | |

| Is the green/brown part well formed or more mixed in than usual? What exactly does bubbly look like? | |

| Do you feed her citrus at all, sometimes the acids in the fruit does that. Also, depending on the bread you feed her, the yeast can sometimes do that too. Birds can't really have gas or (thank god) fart or burp (aside from mimic) really because they don't have that kind of digestive tract, but the chemical reaction of foods works the same. | |
