Just found some green budgie feces today while changing the food and water in Kyle and Sunshine's cage. I'm not sure who it came from though. I have been feeding them celery and a new brand of food because I couldn't find their usual seeds.
The food is from Purina and contains white/red millet, canary seed, flax seed, coconut, etc.
A little help please?
Thanks!

I do not know the answer, but I am betting it can be from the change in diet. Are they loose/watery? If not then even more so from diet.

It's probably the change in diet.

I have read that celery is a high water vegetable and can make the feces more runny.
I can see why you are concerned, but it doesn't sound like you need to worry. Maybe cut out the celery for the time being.

Thank you everyone!
i was also wondering how to clean their water bowl because it's starting to have a stinky smell to it.
Is it okay to use soap?

I would not use soap, but I am not sure if you can or can not. I wash with warm water then dry with a paper towel. I do this daily.
If you do use soap rinse it very very good.

I use soap, you can also use a bleach solution.

Is it okay to use scented soap like the ones from bath and body works?
Or only dish soaps/non scented soaps

I would use mild dish detergent and scrub like crazy, and then rinse, rinse, rinse and rinse again just to be sure there is NO soap left. Then dry it well before filling it back up with clean drinking water. I would not use scented soaps from B&BW.
