My male Gouldian retains lots of poop on his bottom. He seems to keep trying to flick his tail to get it off but it won't drop. Does he have diarrhea or is he constipated? His stools are somewhat wet, light brown with a white knob. My husband and I caught him yesterday and washed him up but it’s back worse than before AND it seemed to really upset him. Your advice would really be appreciated.
