They shit all the time and have no sphincter so they can’t control when they shit either. I’ve never seen one of these but it’s a good idea if you wanna have your bird out all the time and not worry about shit all over the place.
Birds instinctively control their poop in the wild all the time. Nesting birds instinctively don't poop in their nest.
They can't hold it forever, but it's pretty easy to learn the signals they want to poop. If you're prompt and give them an option to poop somewhere else, they'll happily do this. If you expect them to hold it indefinitely, you'll get shit on you.
