New diet = different poop?

I got a conure the other day and he liked Zupreem so much that I just switched him right over from a 4 year long seed diet. He also readily eats fruits/veg and most parts of his chop. His poop was what I have seen called "normal" on the first day and now has been a bit watery. Is it just his body adjusting?

edit: i see the sticky with comparisons and I think a combo of stress & new diet is causing it. in any case he sees a vet monday. it looks very similar to what is listed as "normal" there as well so i may be overreacting... lol

It's impressive how many of us do this when we get a bird. It is almost definetly the reasons you listed but if seeing a vet will help you then go ease your mind.
Main thing is that after the first day or 2 of being home (relaxed, eating normally and etc) not all his poops are odd. He'll have a watery poop after a bath but as long as it doesnt continue for the rest of the day he should be good.
