Hey everyone
Long time lurker, first time poster. We have 1 female cockatiel, female, 3 years old named Professor. She's not playful but is very bonded to me and always wants to be with me or she will just screech and call for me constantly.
She doesn't really want to walk on the floor or hang out independently outside of her cage; she will sometimes be ok with doing that if I'm nearby but she almost always just wants to sit on my shoulder, or if I'm on the couch, behind me. Like I said, she doesn't really want to play or interact with anything, just chill on me.
My question is; what do y'all do to manage your 'tiels poop all over the place? I constantly have poo on my shirt and often am stepping in it on the floor or leaning or sitting on it. Today poop got in my baby's hair! One time she pooped right into a bowl of noodles I was eating.
I'm pretty comfortable with a certain amount of poop but im starting to get icked out with poo on everything and I'm concerned for my baby. One time she put a piece of dried bird poo in her mouth!
How does everyone else manage their bird's poo? She's not down with flight suits, I already tried... But maybe I need to keep trying? She walks around in it very awkwardly. Any suggestions or tips for keeping the poo down to a manageable amount or limiting how it gets on everything without restricting her to her cage?
