Upon further inspection, all of the stool left in the cage last night seems to have the characteristic yellow of salmonella. After I take a few pictures I'm about to bag the body and start decon of the cage and equipment.

BTW, I should note that yellowish stool could come from other things like poisoning or other issues the bird was having but I operate under the precautionary principle so bag and decon is prudent.
Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
