Toxifera Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Our new CAG Trixie is upchuching(regurgitating) all over. She is making a mess of her cage. Is this a normal behavior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 No It does not sound normal.If she is really upchucking she needs to see a ver imediately.There are many causes but two coming to mind are sour crop and metal poisoning. Both need prompt vet care. Let us know how you get on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 How often is she doing this? How many times in one hour? Is she doing this constantly all day long? When did she start doing it? Has there been any change in the solid food she's getting. It might be a light once in a while thing that she's doing which would be normal for her age or she could have something stuck in her throat. Let us know what's going on. Better still, since it's Saturday make a quick appt. with your vet. Explainthe problem. He might want you to bring your bird in.<br><br>Post edited by: Dave007, at: 2008/11/01 20:12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxifera Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 I sincerely apologize; I didn’t realize I had made it sound so bad. She isn’t doing it that often. She does it a few times a day. Maybe 3 times a day. It is just a brand new behavior that surprised me. Thank you for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxifera Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 I also wanted to add that seems to be feeling fine. I haven’t noticed any other strange behaviors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 It is definitely not normal to be upchucking as you describe. As the others have said, please try to get her into a vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Guess I left this window open too long before replying and then seeing your update. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
