Hey guys!
I am excited to announce the newest addition to my feathered family…
(Drumroll…)
DAISY! She is a 4-week old female Eclectus parrot (and Caspers future gf), and she is healthy and active. I have been feeding her vetafarm neocare baby formula, and since I have placed sawdust in her incubator I haven’t really noticed what her poop looks like. However, when I was feeding her today, I saw that her poop was a bit more sticky and a pale-yellow colour (similar to the colour of the formula). Could anyone please let me know if that’s normal..?

Cheers,
Casper, Daisy and Family

Its normsl for baby birds on formula to have poops the same or similar color as the formula. Ive hand raised several baby budgies from hatching and they all did.
 
She's so cute! I just love baby birds. Another member, Amna, just recently hand raised a female Ekkie from 45 days and hopefully she will respond to any questions you have about hand raising an Ekkie.
 
thank you for your response @DonnaBudgie ! I haven't noticed anything else out of the ordinary except for the poop, but I promise to give future updates if anything happens

A big THANK YOU! from Casper, Daisy and me :)
