Thanks for your reply! I am very happy to have someone to talk
to about this.

I apologize in advance if this sounds disgusting...
Johnnie's droppings are 60% clear liquid (urine, I guess) and
40% grass green tube shaped poop. I do not see any urates at
all. The newspaper in his cage is too wet for me to see
anything else.

He has been drinking quite a bit of water, but I am in CA and
its been warm enough to warrent the extra water intake. I
have also been giving him 2-3 grapes in his fruit treat bowl
as I just discovered they are his favorite goodie to eat (I
love to see him tear those grapes up!)

I have been watching him very carefully and he really doesn't
seem sick at all except for the droppings being different from
my other 2 birdies. I know birds can hide their illnesses
well. He has a hardy appetite, plays and squawks well, and
has a nice set of glossy feathers.

I will be sure to schedule a vet appointment just in case.
Thanks again for your comments.
