Zoom Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 He takes a big drink of water, then steps out onto the door of his cage, bangs his beak hard against the cage like a woodpecker, then regurgitates the water. I can't figure out why. He doesn't regurgitate food, just water. (Background: he's a 13-year-old Amazon and I've had him for about 5 months. I've seen him do this several times.)

Ray P Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 That`s interesting. I have a(about) 15 year old Blue Front that we have had for 2 years and 4 months and I have not seen this with her. I wish I could help. Cricket has been a sweet love able zon and I could not ask for anything more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 I'm afraid I'm no help as my Amazon, BF male, is only 3 years old and has not displayed this type of behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 It's not unusual for a Zon,[some] to spit water or hold it in there beak, it's a form of exercising. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 Exercising? Really? Wow. I'm very happy to hear that - although I have to say it's one of the weirder things I've heard today. Thanks Jayd, I'll stop worrying now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
