Hi Shana,
First, I want to say GREAT JOB for monitoring your bird’s poop. So many people don’t do that and find out too late that their bird is sick. I wouldn’t worry too much about what you are observing at the moment. The coloring could be a result of what she has eaten (pellets will turn poop brown). I don’t think it is a problem for the re-check to wait a week. If you remain concerned, call the vet and insist on an earlier scheduling. I’m sure they could fit you in somewhere.

I always pay attention to my lovebirds poop, and it is usually a darkish green color with some white liquidy stuff around it, the bird speciallist vet i go to said that was normal. 3 weeks ago at a vet visit we found out that she had a lot of bacteria in her poop, ecoli i think, and it might have cuase a little respiritory infection or something. our vet put her on antibiotics, it seems like shes better than she was before, but its hard to tell. The follow up appointment was suposed to be today (1 week after the last antibiotic dose), but because of the snow it was canceled. I just had her out, and she pooped on me (of course) and it was a ligher brown color, with hardly any liquid in it. It was larger than normal, and a kind of weird consistancy, almost like a booger, im sorry that is so gross haha. Anyway, should i be concerned? the earliest appointment i could get is in a week. she is still eating like normal and everything.
