She only had parsley and veggies the last two days but she especially ate the parsley and I noticed diarrhea so I switched back to seeds but she is already sick

  1. No, she should be fine.  Just cut down on the fresh veggies for a bit.  Her stool should be back to normal.  She just ate to much and that's what caused the loose stool.  The parsley, like all fruits and veggies has a high water content.  She'll be fine.

    EDIT:::  I am soooo sorry for the loss of your bird.


  2. Bring her to the vet.

  3. no...but keep an eye on how much the bird food the bird is consuming....

  4. Normally DARK greens are very good but a major change in diet can effect different birds in different ways, as gross as it sounds, I monitor my birds droppings all the time and usually notice a big difference when introducing something new especially if they consume a lot of it. Regular lettuce is no good for birds, stick with dark greens and a high quality pellet as the main staple of their diet as opposed to seed which can be give in controlled portions after they successfully accept the pellets, I highly recommend "roudybush crumbles" for small birds.
