i just brought a cockatiel home i already had two budgies and i don’t know if it’s poop is normal here is a picture below

thank you for your help
I don't know much but I do have an idea as to what Google says is OK. What color is it? Pic is hard to tell. Also is it practically liquid or is there some form to it?

I think it depends on how much green there is I would suggest keeping an eye on that for a few days. If it gets to a bright green then you should see about a vet visit. If the bird is fed seeds the poop is normally green I think, I saw thatona forum somewhere. Brown is ideal. Black is something to keep an eye on according to one website. But I would keep an eye on it maybe call a vet and ask them, I think you can ask them rather than an actual visit but what do i know is that the white is normal just keep an eye for persistent symptoms and as far as green goes if it is dark and she eats a seed diet it might be normal. If it is lime green, yellow, red, or any other exotic colors call a vet immediately. If it gets liquidy (diarrhea) the bird is likely sick. Also if the bird gets diarrhea or the weird green/black persists check for other strange things like a change in energy, change in appetite/drinking, etc etc.

Summary: if it looks exotic call a vet immediately. If the black/darker green persists keep an eye out for changes in behaviours. Keep an eye on behaviours anyway but still. With a bird it pays to over think things sometimes since they are so fragile. I learned that today....

Let me know how your bird is doing!!
