Question

Coco is having sticky poops his vent is sticky. He's cleaning his vent with his beak and his poop is sticking to his beak. Is day 2 of me owning him. He's quite active and a bit scared. He's not eating much. His poops are almost white and a bit green due to his eating of a bit of corriender leaves. Is he ok? Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Male | 1 year old

You will need to wait until he starts eating normally again, it is not unusual for a bird to eat very little when moving to a new home. if the poo remains sticky after he starts eating well again, take him to the vet to get it checked as he may be suffering from a gastrointestinal condition.
