Parrot abdomen


What does a slightly squishy abdomen mean?


Answer:

Hi Wyn,

It could indicate excess gas in the intestines. It could also be normal for your bird. But if this is a recent change, it might be time for a Vet check. Any type of growth or tumor is generally going to feel fairly hard.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
