My budgie has green poop, no vet. Can I use my bird antibiotic?

Without knowing what is causing the stool color change, I would be unable to recommend if an antibiotic is the right treatment or not as a patient-doctor relationship is required along with an in-person exam in order to prescribe medications. Liver disease, and even nutritional changes such as too many fruits or veggies can also cause stool color changes, in which case antibiotics would not help. Keeping Skye warm and eating a balanced diet may help, but ultimately he will need to be seen by a veterinarian in order to diagnose the issue so appropriate treatment can be given.

Unfortunately for legal reasons, we are unable to prescribe medications over the internet without having examined a bird in person. You will need to try and find a vet in your area that can examine Sokar in order to prescribe the medication and give dosing information.

Thanks for reaching out about Meow. Possibly this is not an infectious problem, so antibiotics and anti-fungal might not help. With an all seed or heavy seed diet, fatty liver disease is possible which will not respond to the medications. Increasing protein and vitamins in the diet could help, as could an increase in dietary fiber. An avian veterinary visit is still recommended. Good luck.

An antibiotic will only be helpful if there is a bacterial infection causing his problem. It is best to schedule a vet visit first to try and find the underlying issue causing the feather loss and changes to his stool. Additional causes can include internal parasites, illness, nutritional issues, viral infections, bacterial infections, yeast and fungus on the skin, or even arthritis in older birds preventing them from properly cleaning themselves. Ruling out these issues, or treating any that are found, are best to get Blu feeling better.

Thanks for reaching out about Susi and including photos. Other diseases can cause greenish stool, anything that affects liver function. AS you probably know, psittacosis is zoonotic. Veterinarians can sometimes have access to injectable doxycycline, since won't take orally. Gavage feeding the medications and food could also be beneficial and a veterinarian can assist with the technique. You might have to travel further is an avian veterinarian is not in your vicinity, as this bird sounds critical. Good luck.

Looser stools can be caused by a number of things. If you've recently given Sky a bunch of snacks (such as fruits and veggies) or changed her diet, this can cause temporary stool color changes or moist stool. Removing any extra treats and letting her adjust to her new diet for a few days may help. If she has differently colored pellets in her food, this may also cause color changes to the stool as well. Other causes can include parasites, GI upset, illness, nutritional issues, metabolic issues, etc. If she didn't have a diet change or any snacks, or is showing other signs of illness in addition to the loose stool/color change (you mentioned she is less active), then having her examined by a vet is best. They can treat her for parasites and help rule out any more serious underlying conditions that may require treatment.

He needs to be seen by a veterinarian if he is ill. Providing a warm environment, simulating a warm incubator, could give aid, but a veterinary visit is warranted. Without knowing what the clinical signs are for the illness, can not give any other advice. Good luck.
