Question
Greetings
I am the owner of a 24 year old Macaw named Azul. He has been drinking a lot
of water lately and I am concerned that there may be some kind of health issue
going on. Are you familar with any aliments that would cause this kind of
behavior.

Answer
hello,
I am not sure where you live but it is getting cold here in Vermont and when it gets cold people heat there house with wood stove, oil, ETC and it may cause the bird to get to warm and make the room where the bird is dry so he will drink more water. I have never really heard of any common heath issues that would cause a bird to drink more water. I hope this answered your ?S. if you have anymore ?S just ask.
