PrettyPax Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Okay all, I know this is kind of a gross question, but how do you tell the difference between vomiting and regurgitation in a parrot? Pax came up to me this morning and opened her mouth and out spewed some liquid and a piece of food. How worried should I be? She's acting totally normal - you know, singing, talking, eating etc. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Not to worry--it's not gross. seen lots worse that's vomiting which most birds have the ability to do if something lodges in the the area above the crop. Sometimes, birds do that when they don't break up peanuts plus other items. It may happen once or twice within a 2 to 3 hr period but there's little to worry about if your bird is still doing it's normal activities.

PrettyPax Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 Thanks Dave007 for your response. This is the first time I've seen her do anything like this, and now I won't be as alarmed. Right now she's happily chewing on an empty candy box with out a care in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
