If the green part is still solid, but the poop just contains more water, it's ok. But if even the green part is liquidy, then I would keep my eye on the bird and inspect the poop closely for a couple of days. If it doesn't change, I'd take him to the vet.

that sounds ok for the time being.. Everynow and then birds can have runnier poop due to the food content or the amount of water they've drank. Like Shirin said, if it's still solid but more water, it should be fine. I'd just keep an eye on it to make sure that it doesn't get any runnier though just to make sure. Very Happy

Is the green like a dark green? if it is, even if it's a bit lighter, it sounds like it's ok. My birds have that occasionally depending on what they've had.
