I don't think he is ill. Watery poop is normal since he is still very new. When I first brought Beck home from PetSmart he didn't eat for 3 days, didn't move and had some watery poop. He's a goober now, 4 years later. Give him time. He is very pretty. What's his name?

Hi. Thanks Stephanie!
I think that I have just named him Kermit. Because He was just really noisy and I thought "blimey, calm it kermit". Although I don't really like the word Kermit lol

What is a goober? I'm from England and have only heard this on tv but never found out what this means.

This is my other boy. I got him about a month ago. He's called Servio. The Spanish word for minion :D

Oh, goober is just a word for silly, dorky or goofy.

It also means peanut. Peanuts used to be called goober peas in the South. There's an old song about it. Feel free to sing this song to your budgies lol.

I didn't write the song, I just reported on it. I may be old but 1866 was before my time.

I can totally remember 1966 though.

I know you didn't write it. It was just funny how you brought it up.

My aunt was 9 in 1966. I only know that because actually her birthday is in a few days and we put together an album for her. Looked interesting back then. I'm a 90s kid, so I don't know much beyond my time.
