Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Male
Had got budgie around 2 months back. She recovered from scaly feet, lice from visit to general vet. Have moved to new city 5 days back & have put her with my older budgie. Shes now started eating vegetables (spinach, sprouts, cilantro) since the move & is active flying around with my other budgie. But am concerned with her wet sneezes-atleast 1 to 2 times a day. Have seen bit of water spray from her nose. Her poop at times appears to be white portion. Is this from the move or shud i b worried?

A few things are possible. Issues such as eating too many treats (salad greens) could be causing some minor diarrhea, and reducing the amount you give her could help firm her stool back up. Irritation to any bedding or dust in her new location may also cause sneezing to happen and keeping the area clean and dusted as well as draft-free may help. If you're seeing discharge from her nose that is yellow or greenish, it may also indicate an upper respiratory infection, which should be checked out by a vet. Also, if the stools do not return to normal with the reduction in treats, ruling out a return of internal parasites or other GI issues with your vet is also a good idea.
