Zippy is eating her poohs it is disgusting she actually seems to savour them like a delicacy. Is this normal? Could it be that she is lacking in some sort of vitamin or mineral that she can only get from eating her own droppings? How can I stop her from doing this if at all?

You can't, and she will. Some do, some don't; some do sometimes. Get over the angst - either leave her be or clean it up so she can't, if it worries you that much. She is simply a bird being a bird.  |
